Gina Rinehart was seen rubbing shoulders with Donald Trump’s daughter as she mingled with friends and supporters of the US Republican presidential candidate at his election party at Mar-A-Lago.
A beaming Mrs. Rinehart posed with Tiffany Trump, Donald Trump’s fourth daughter, at the purple-lit soirée held at her sprawling family home in Florida.
Mrs. Rinehart sported a wide-brimmed cattleman’s hat and proudly held a sign hanging from her shoulders quoting Trump’s pro-mining mantra: “drill, drill.”
The billionaire mining magnate was sitting with socialite founder of the pro-Trump women’s group the Trumpettes, Toni Holt Kramer.
Mrs Kramer boasted that she was sitting with “Australia’s biggest celebrity”.
‘Gina Rinehart is here and she looks phenomenal in her Western Australian hat. And Teena McQueen is here, so we’ve got all the very important people from Australia who love their country,” he told Seven News.
‘We are sitting together, we have all been friends for seven or eight years. I would say that Gina is to Australia what President Trump is to the United States: she just wants to see something good for her country.
‘She wants to see everything that would make her country better and better. And she is the most devoted woman I know and always has been since the day I met her.

It proposes a 60 percent tariff on all Chinese goods and a 10 percent “blanket” tariff on all $3 trillion worth of U.S. imports.
Rinehart, who opposes tariffs, said he believed this was a negotiating position and that Trump would not impose such broad measures, but would look at them on a country-by-country basis.
However, the Australian mining magnate strongly approves of other Trumpian policies.
“He understands that if you include investment-friendly policies, like less red tape, less taxes, you get investment back, you generate growth and you raise living standards,” Ms. Rinehart said.
