Former Labor Prime Minister and Labor Prime Minister destroyer Julia Gillard has thrown her hat back into the political scene by releasing a glowing endorsement of US President Donald Trump.

The tribute comes just seconds after Gillard was sent the video of Trump telling Kevin Rudd that he “doesn’t like him.”
