A little good news from the Australian election.
It’s deeply funny that Trump managed to sabotage these conservative parties that would have done whatever he wanted , just because Canadian and Australian politicians still have the political instincts to say “fuck you” when a US president tells them to hand over their lunch money and then kiss his ass.

Gotta say that “right-leaning” is a massive understatement
Get wrecked hoser!
He’s a sore loser like Pierre Poilievre!
his concession speech was actually quite reasonable. i wouldn’t say he’s a sore loser: he acknowledged the defeat, took responsibility, congratulated the PM and even said that the minister he lost to would do a great job for the local area
i hate the guy but you gotta give credit where credit’s due
Is he going to step down, or is he going to force someone else to give up their seat?
Does he have alopecia or does he just love that racist asshole look?
