what Australians feel about President Donald Trump
Australians have reacted apprehensively to Donald Trump's election as US president, with a significant majority saying it will hurt the economy, make the world less safe and worsen relations between Canberra and Washington.
A nationwide poll by Ipsos taken after this week's US election found two-thirds were opposed to Mr Trump's election as US President.
However, there was a significant gender split, with 75 per cent of women opposed, compared with 57 per cent of men. More than eight in 10 young voters (18-24 years) were also opposed to Mr Trump's presidency.
Most of those interviewed think Mr Trump's victory will be negative for the economy and global security. Almost six in 10 felt the Australian economy would be worse off under a Trump presidency with more than a quarter of the total saying it will be much worse.
An even bigger portion think Trump's ascent to the White House will hurt the world economy, with 63 per cent saying it would be worse off and 36 per cent of the total saying it would be much worse.
During the election campaign, Mr Trump flagged policies that could disrupt global trade including the renegotiation of trade deals and action to prevent "all foreign trading abuses that unfairly impact American workers".
