The motion was brought forward by Greens MP Jeremy Buckingham, who was responding to Trump’s 2005 comments, revealed last week, about preying on women.
“I move that this house condemns the misogynistic, hateful comments made by … Mr Donald Trump, about women and minorities, including the remarks revealed over the weekend that clearly describe sexual assault … and agrees with those who have described Mr Trump as ‘a revolting slug’ unfit for public office,” the motion read.

The motion regarding Mr Trump was passed without dissent, after Upper House president Don Harwin looked into whether the term "revolting slug" amounted to unparliamentary language.
"It is great that all sides of Australian politics, from conservatives to Liberals to Greens, agree that Donald Trump is a revolting slug and completely unfit for public office," Mr Buckingham said after the vote was passed.
It's clear that all reasonable and decent people find Donald Trump's behaviour obnoxious and that the world is hoping American voters reject his politics of hate."

“His comments and subsequent obfuscation are frighteningly immoral, especially from someone who may be US president. … He’s a danger to the entire world,” the Greens MP said.
“Is this the person anyone wants with the nuclear codes, setting direction on climate policy?”
