Abbie Chatfield has slammed Donald Trump in a foul-mouthed rant on her podcast.

Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the FBoy Island host, 29, shared a very profane clip from the latest episode of It’s A Lot. 

The Bachelor star, who studied property economics at university, took issue with Trump’s foreign import tariff policy.

Trump’s trade policy has generally been referred to as ‘America First,’ and his use of tariffs on other country’s imports is intended to give equivalent locally made goods a competitive advantage in price.

‘The only policy I’ve heard him speak about are these tariffs,’ began Abbie, before playing a clip of Trump spruiking the policy.

‘Guys, I don’t know if Donald Trump knows what a tariff is. A tariff is a tax on imports from another country,’ Abbie began her rant.

‘Let’s say you’re getting a computer from China. It is $1000 wholesale. If a tariff is 10%, the person who is importing, as in the American business, pays that tax.’ 

Abbie then began to yell as she grew increasingly frustrated.

‘He thinks he is charging China a tariff! But tariffs go towards the f***ing wholesaler who’s importing the goods. That isn’t how a tariff works!’

Later, the podcaster went on to call Trump a serial liar.  

‘I’m not saying you’re stupid for not knowing this, but as a Presidential candidate, he repeatedly lies. And then people say “Trump’s economic policy is the one thing I agree with” and I go “the c**t doesn’t know what tariffs are!”‘ she said in the clip.

It comes as Abbie herself came in for criticism after sharing a sponsored post from a skincare brand with ‘ties to Israel.’

Abbie took to Instagram over the weekend to reflect on the style of makeup she used to wear – and sleep in.

In a sponsored video for skincare brand CeraVe, the influencer shared a photo of herself in a ‘full beat’ of thick makeup back in 2016, which she said she used to wear to her hospitality job.

However the influencer’s fans were less than impressed, lashing her in the comments for her association with the brand.

Many suggested the brand’s parent company L’Oréal was on the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) list against Israel – and also called them out for animal testing.

‘Isn’t this BDS? And they test on animals anyway,’ the fan said. 

‘Love you but boycotting L’Oréal due to their ties to Israel,’ another comment read.

‘I remember you posted ages ago saying you’re super careful about who you partner with so I’m not sure if you’re aware, but being owned by L’Oréal [CeraVe] both test on animals and have ties to Israel (yuck),’ said one political fan. 

Others raised their ethical concerns about the brand’s alleged animal testing.

At the time of writing, Abbie has not responded to any of these criticisms in her comments.
