I'm told Malcolm Turnbull is a coal loving right wing ogre of some kind but I don't follow Australian politics. My friend I was there with wouldn't shake his hand though. But hey I just thought how cool is it to get to shake the hand of the head of state whomever it is (though to be fair I'm really not sure I would shake Trump's hand)

I'd shake his hand out of politeness, but I'd consider washing it straight after.

Not following Australian politics is probably the saner course of action, TBH.

My friend Bjorn always wears fanny packs! I wonder if people thought he was secret service when he visited Australia.
