In a lengthy statement to the Daily Mail on Monday, Australia’s richest person broke her silence following the Coalition’s wipeout on Saturday night.

“The left media did a very successful effort, frightening many in the Liberal party from anything Trump, and away from any Trump-like policies” she wrote. Referencing a trip to the US before last November’s election, Rinehart said she had met with former Democrat voters who had since turned Republican.

“Why are Americans getting it, and we aren’t?” Rinehart said.
