Liberal frontbencher Andrew Hastie has blasted Donald Trump for starting a war with no end date or clear strategic objective, as he appealed to conservative voters to think twice before abandoning the Coalition to support One Nation.
Hastie, a veteran of the war in Afghanistan who holds leadership aspirations, said voters needed reminding that One Nation is a strong supporter of the war against Iran, a point Pauline Hanson reaffirmed again on Wednesday when she declined to criticise Trump for his prosecution of the war.
