Former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison's engagement with former President Trump has sparked worries about normalizing disruptive political behaviors, known as the 'Trump effect'.

Morrison's visit to the US included a book launch attended by Trump-era officials, underscoring diplomatic tensions for Australia's current Labor government.

The potential return of Trump to US politics brings uncertainty to the future of US-Australia relations.

Despite Trump's past criticism of Labor leaders, Morrison underscores the resilience of the US-Australia alliance.

The meeting has raised ethical concerns about the implications of aligning closely with a controversial political figure.
