Gina Rinehart, Australia's richest person, has been spotted at Donald Trump's lavish Halloween party at his Mar-a-Lago resort. According to a social media post by former US attorney Jeanine Pirro, the billionaire mining magnate was seen in close proximity to Trump as he read from a piece of paper, flanked by other high-profile guests including US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and One Nation leader Pauline Hanson.
The party, which had a 1920s Great Gatsby theme, coincided with a US federal government shutdown and Trump's attempts to suspend funding for an aid organization that provides food assistance to millions of Americans. The timing has raised eyebrows, particularly given the President's criticism of Democrats over hunger and his own plans to build a $300m ballroom in the White House.
Rinehart has been a vocal supporter of Trump and his policies in Australia, encouraging the Liberal party to adopt "Trump-like" approaches since their historic election loss in May. In a statement to the Daily Mail, Rinehart claimed that the left media had successfully driven away Liberals from adopting Trump's style, but her comments have been met with skepticism by many.
The appearance at Trump's party has further fueled speculation about the close ties between some Australian politicians and the former US President. With a federal government shutdown looming, the event has also highlighted the contentious relationship between Trump and Democrats over key issues like food assistance and governance.

she's always been a fanboy for him and i think its cute how some aussies are tryna be like trumps in politics lol but honestly if they wanna adopt his style, they shouldve done it before now when it matters most 
not after the party's over and everyone's talking about it. and btw, 300m ballroom in the white house? that's just gas 
I mean what's up with Gina Rinehart hanging out with Donald Trump at his party? Like, she's already got the Aussie dollars thing down pat but does she really need to associate herself with this... controversy 
. And can we talk about how tone-deaf that 1920s Great Gatsby theme is when you've got a federal government shutdown and people struggling to get food? It just feels like a total PR stunt, if you ask me 
.
And btw, has anyone seen Pauline Hanson there too? Asking for a friend... 
. The timing of this party was just ridiculous, especially with all those Americans struggling for food assistance. And Trump's plan to build that fancy ballroom in the White House? It's just another example of how out of touch he is with reality 
. I'm not sure what's more concerning, the fact that Rinehart is still supporting him or the fact that some Australian politicians are getting cozy with him too 
but seriously tho, this is some shady stuff - trump trying to suspend aid funding and now rinehart showing up at his party with her big wallet 
anyway, what's the deal with aussie politicians and trump? do we really need more of that kind of 'leadership'? 
i mean, what's next? is she gonna start wearing a 'Make Mining Great Again' t-shirt or something 
... meanwhile, Americans are strugglin' to get food assistance 
. Don't get me wrong, I'm curious about these Aussie politicians and Trump's influence... but shouldn't they be focusin on helpin' people over, like, party throwin'? 
? Like, what's next? Is she gonna start wearing a fascinator to Senate hearings too? 
. Guess you could say her presence just added fuel to the fire on the whole 'Aussie politicians and Trump' thing 
.
so gin rinehart just hangs out at trump's halloween party rn... meanwhile there's a fed gov shutdown in usa & people are struggling to get food... doesn't seem very gatsby vibes to me 
(2022: 22.5 bil; 2023: 24.6 bil) and usa's richest person is now trump... but did u know his net worth dropped by $1.5 bil in 2022? 
. She thinks the Liberal party should be more... let's say, "aggressive" like Trump 
. With the US government shutdown and all that's going on in the world, it's just ridiculous that people are more concerned about dressing up in costumes than actually solving problems 
.
. At the end of the day, it's up to us to make our own opinions about who's doing what and why 
I'm low-key shocked that Gina Rinehart was spotted at Donald Trump's Halloween party 
. It's not hard to see why some Aussie politicians are close to him, they're all about the Benjamins 
it's like, what does she really think about the whole thing?? 
. And honestly, can we talk about how rich people partying while the rest of us are dealing with a government shutdown is just basic
