At Monash the Economics course required one to choose a single subject from either Australian Politics or Accountancy. Apart from that single choice, none of the Economics units would be likely to contain anything of Trump, SSM, etc.
On this thread a poster has provided a list of subjects taught in an Economics degree at Sydney university and these show clearly the focus - macroeconomics, microeconomics, economic statistics, econometrics, economics of developing countries, economic theory, labour economics etc etc. They all look familiar to me.
No Trump, or left right left right garbage seen anywhere amongst that lot. Lol
