Donald Trump V Clive Palmer.. Compare and contrast

Australias self styled mega businessman turned political messiah Clive Palmer didnt quite capture the imagination of the Voting public. Some of his "projects" have a distinctly Trumpish ring to them. Including real estate developments that fell over, usually taking other peoples money with them, and a fancy to build a replica of the Titanic as a cruise ship. (Maybe he didnt see the movie about how that one ended.) But Palmer also had a very Trumpish habit of using other people music without permission. As did Palmer, plagerising Twisted Sisters "We aint going to take it" for his advertising campaign after seeking permission, then baulking at paying the fee. Here is how the Australian courts saw it. Palmer is now to pay $1.5 Million, plus court costs.
