It's beyond bemusing these bellends say this with a straight face, it's Trump level shitfuckery. Nearly every Liberal Government is a minority.

It's satire.
It's satirising what the bellends say with a straight face, though. See examples: https://aussie.zone/post/19606192/16128256
The Liberal party has only held a majority in their own right once in their 80 year history, the 1996 election of John Howard.
But, as was already pointed out, this is satirical. However I feel like it's gearing up for the Coalition's response if Labor ends up forming government with the Greens, which I feel like is more than just an outside chance.

They've been trotting out this line consistently for ages. That's why it's being satirised...

“A Labor-Greens minority government would be a disaster for this country,” Mr Dutton said.*

"... So a Labor/Greens/Teal government is a disaster for WA. It's a disaster for the economy. ..."

In the course of his answer, Mr Dutton said: "The prime minister, if he's in a minority government in the next term of parliament, it will include the Greens, it'll include Green-Teals, it'll include Muslim candidates from Western Sydney. It will be a disaster."
I'm laughing at that photo of Matt Canavan. It looks like he smeared coal all over his face for his working class cosplay. Truly, a man of the people.
