The Coalition should resist seeing Trump as a natural disaster over which they had no control. Peter Dutton made many other missteps that doomed his party’s chances.

i would say 50% trump, 50% terrible policies and leader

the huge turn around in the polls came when trump started tariffs and demanding ukraine pay for protection, essentially ending the since ww2 idea that we can rely on America for protection

dutton did himself no favours coming across as the worst person in australia and some of the worst policies, not only not matching a tax cut but denying it might be the most unliberal party thing ever, i was legit 🤯
