Two years ago, a journalist suggested that Australia had already had 'their Trump moment' when we failed to re-elect Tony Abbott.

Me? Today, I'm quietly terrified that today is our 'Trump moment'.

Everything points to the less-evil-centrists winning...but they said that about HRC, too.

We could just not have a Trump anything. That would be good.

Unfortunately...Queensland. :(

I send good vibes for that to not be the case.

Unfortunately, it is America 2016 over again.

I think it's "how did Murdoch succeed so well?"

To which the answer is: money and monopoly.

WHEN WILL HE DIE

I know we managed to get rid of Abbott and Anning but it's still devastating overall.

Maybe with the hard right faction of the liberals (who Abbott was the front/voice of) shut up a little bit Morrison might have the balls to actually do something about climate change (iirc he's not personally opposed to it). IDK
