When Donald Trump returned to the US presidency, he unveiled DOGE, the Department Of Government Efficiency.

It’s a cost cutting body for government spending run by the world’s richest man Elon Musk.

Last weekend, the opposition leader Peter Dutton unveiled the Coalition’s brand-new spokeswoman for government efficiency, supposed to cut wasteful spending here in Australia.

Today, host of The Party Room podcast, Patricia Karvelas on why Mr Dutton will only go so far down the Trump path.

She highlights eerie similarities between Dutton's new portfolio and Trump's DOGE.

She also explains how Dutton is selectively adopting parts of Trump's agenda that he believes will resonate with Australian voters.

Patricia Karvelas says Dutton's approach is tailored to the unique political landscape of Australia, which differs from the US in key ways.
