It's quite simple really,
Our governments, of all levels and of whatever persuasions are democratically elected and are subject to checks and balances that, by and large, work quite well. Every law, regulation, by-law and budget has to be approved by the majority in mainly bi-cameral parliaments,
The USA has a very clumsy republican system and an electoral process that is open to manipulation and maladministration. There's simply no way that a senile, misogynistic, bankrupted grifter could be endorsed by any of our mainstream political parties and win an election, at any level, let alone become president and claim sweeping powers that are most likely unconstitutional. And we can all be very thankful for that.
On top of that, this thread is specifically about Taco and his shenanigans, not Australian politics.
If you want to start a thread about our political system, politicians and governments, go right ahead.
