I beg to differ, they went Trump marketing from the get go, and just mis-read the room and backed the wrong horse.
No they were campaigning on the same platform; nationalism and economic rationalism. Of course it's going to resemble the Trump campaign. They will need to campaign on it next time too.

The problem is Australian voters are fixated on events in the US and believe the alarmist reporting coming out of the media (America sux and it's Trump's fault). They don't want to believe the mining boom is over and we need to tighten our belts. Labor was able to continue promising that it isn't and we don't. Of course voters prefer that story.
Anyway, you're welcome to continue the conversation in the appropriate thread - freeing up Avenger's Shit List thread for... shit?
That thread is even shitter than this one.

Can you take this shit to another thread, please.

In a forum where merkins constantly derail threads, I'm not taking it to another one. Selective enforcement of rules and standards is bullying.

If there's no more demand for political discussion in this thread it will die. Simple as that. Then you can go back to putting shit on players, coaches, administrators and other users.

The sane washing of Trumps bullshit is unreal. He’s literally threatening to Annex Canada and Greenland but somehow that’s “alarmist reporting”.

Greenland has to belong to someone. If not the US, it'll be China or Russia. It's too weak for self-governance.

He's not threatening to annex Canada. The reason you think so is due to alarmist reporting.

The people of Greenland don’t want to be a part of America so it’s not for anyone else to decide. Would you accept being part of America because China might invade us someday?

You’re falling for plausible deniability if you think there’s no threat to Annex Canada. The fact that you don’t think it’s inappropriate for the head of one sovereign nation to say to another that they should become one of their states is sane washing.

I absolutely would. How would it be a bad thing?

Many borders are arbitrary, including the one separating Canada from the US.

If you’re going to promote Australia losing our status as a sovereign country and becoming part of America then there’s nothing left to say. If you don’t see it as a problem then you’re already lost. Time to get the thread back on track.
