I move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes that the Australian Greens website claims that the President of the United States of America "was elected on a platform of racism, division and fear" and that "his time in office so far could easily be confused for that of a fascist dictator";

(b) discourages honourable senators from making emotive statements of this nature about Australia's allies as they do not assist bilateral relations; and

(c) expresses its respect for the free, fair and democratic presidential election decision of the American people made on 8 November 2016.
