Its organiser Tyrone S. Murray claims no valid reason has been given for the tour’s postponement.
The planned speaking events have been continuously delayed since they were first announced last year – first from July to September, then again to December, and again to an unknown date in the future.
Mr Trump Jr claimed the first cancellation was due to a delay in getting a visa from the federal government, even stoushing with the Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil over X, formerly Twitter, after she called him a “sore loser”.
But Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil refuted this, stating Mr Trump Jr was given a visa “like everyone else” and had tried to blame the government for his “poor ticket sales”.
Of the 8000 tickets purchased for Mr Trump Jr’s tour, 70 per cent have been refunded as of March.
Asked if Mr Trump Jr still planned to visit Australia despite the persistent delays to the tour, he responded: “Don Jr is actively campaigning with his father in the lead-up to the 2024 US election and is extremely busy.
“He wants to return to Australia in the very near future as he said on Twitter/X last year.
“And Trump Jr hasn’t acknowledged his postponements or even spoke anything about it. The only thing Trump Jr has been ranting about is Hunter Biden nearly every week on his socials.
The tour was again delayed in September, with an email being sent to ticket holders informing them of the “last-minute scheduling conflicts”.
