Not according to the polls or the preferred PM. While I also support Labor, you do gotta open your eyes to the reality that Dutts may just be PM.

Not that I agree with it.

Yeah but I just still don’t see that happening. The population would have to just be incredibly stupid to vote for Dutton. The current government ud a breath of fresh air over the absolute rabble of incompetence that was the LNP who did nothing but look after their rich mates.

A few months ago I'd have agreed whole heartedly. But then I saw the US election. Do not underestimate the stupidity of the average voter.

Trump didn't win on the stupidity of the American voter. They've always been stupid. They'll always be stupid.

They're barely better than savages.

He won on the stupidity of the Democratic establishment. They couldn’t grasp that people wanted something more than empty platitudes and a coronation.

They were so wrapped up in their own entitlement to power that they couldn't see the forest for the trees, and they couldn't smell their own shit on their knees.
