What will Trump 2.0 mean for Australia? What will China do? But there are two similar questions to ask: what should and what will Trump mean for Australia and our region?

Trumpification Australia. The winners and losers and what might be

by Michael Pascoe | Nov 8, 2024

Kamala Harris could never be elected. There are many things the Democrats could have done better, but in the end, a woman, a black woman, could not be elected U.S. president in a world where Trump's obscenely racist, misogynistic and psychotic ramblings are routinely presented as logical arguments.

Trump won … but wait, Albo just got another flight upgrade!

More remarkable is that so many Americans voted for a twice-impeached felon who, on the false assertion of a stolen election, encouraged his followers to storm the congress. A businessman who has filed six bankruptcies and cheated on his wife, his taxes and at golf. Who misled or lied to the people 30,573 times in his first presidential term, according to The Washington Post’s fact checkers. Who sent vaccines to a Russian dictator during a pandemic that killed more than a million US citizens. His own top general called him a fascist and multiple other former close aides, and rational Republicans, condemned him as unfit to govern.

Prabowo Subianto has got his diary right: First overseas handshake from the new President of Indonesia is for his bankers in Beijing, President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang. Trump can wait.

Who am I

I'm an old dog been around for a while. I haven't pissed on every tree or liked shitting in my own backyard. I've gone for long walks over the years to a lot of countries in fact and have never been quarantined or examined for ticks, for my mongrel looks or mongrel thoughts. There are one or two places I have come under suspicion though, mistaken identity of course. I've made the some mistakes but haven't we all. But as I've said I'm home now. I'm an old dog who suddenly feels uneasy because I hear a lot of barking not just to let people know I'm here young and want to play, but gangs of dogs barking & sounding the trumpets hell. I don't recognize home any more the message is coming from a breed that's out of control,media dogs. Here in Melbourne it's Andrew Bolt inspired by the Goebbels of all dogs Rupert supporting the most devisive of all mongrels Tony Abbott. This is my Blog my Bark
