SCOMO’S BRILLIANT TACTIC: COPY HILLARY
IT was a strategy that worked so brilliantly to elect President Clinton that Scott Morrison – sorry, ScoMo – has adopted it as his key election-winning tactic down here.
He’s modified the words used so effectively by President Clinton. Rather than calling the voters he needs to attract a “Basket of Deplorables”, he’s said the party they want to vote for is “abhorrent”.
But the message is exactly the same: you are all too stupid to know what you are doing, so let me tell you what you need to do.
Don’t vote for Pauline Hanson and One Nation, as you intend to do because you feel – and indeed have been – abandoned and betrayed by the Liberal and National parties, vote instead for …. the Liberal and National Parties.
Brilliant! I’m guessing that’s likely to prove as successful as it did for President Clinton, President Hillary Clinton.
What’s that you say? She’s not and never has been President?
You have got to be kidding. How could a tactic of insulting the voters you need; of demeaning their intelligence and even more the reasons they have chosen not to vote for you, not work?
Let me gently break it to the political genius that the prime minister – sorry again, ScoMo, and I guess we should now also be adding add pro tem – is proving himself to be.
People are voting for parties like One Nation to the right of traditional mainstream parties like the L&NP – which used to be centre-right and have
While also demanding that Labor put the Greens last and refuse to exchange preferences with them – for precisely that reason.
Morrison needed to also be prepared to defend – no, argue – it vigorously and every day, even and especially on our version of Fake Media, the ABC, that
had to place One Nation ahead of the Greens.
Well, how can he go there now after Christchurch? And One Nation’s (fake) NRA tape?
Well he could start with New Zealand’s own version of Pauline Hanson’s One Nation – Winston Peters’s NZ First. Notice a certain similarity: One Nation, NZ First?
The Liberals are being excoriated for any suggestion they might exchange preferences with One Nation.
Heck, the current darling of the entire ABC and the rest of the fake media elite – a certain Jacinda Ardern – is in coalition government with NZ’s version of One Nation!
