Bolt: Trump helped smash the Liberals. Here’s how
Trump just helped defeat the Liberals, but he didn’t harm his closest political ally in Britain, Nigel Farage — so what happened with Dutton?

Anthony Albanese’s election landslide is not a bright new dawn, but more like waking up with a hangover.
The Coalition fought to a shock lead in the polls, and then … stopped. So here we are, back with a Labor government that’s left Australia poorer, weaker, more divided and deeper in debt.
Evidence is firming that this week’s power outage in Spain is the first mega-blackout of the global warming movement. If Chris Bowen keeps pushing wind and solar we’ll be closer to a Spanish disaster right here.
I’ve never seen such brazen liars as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his election thieves. And the truly frightening thing is that this lying works.
Is it surprising that some Australians object to being effectively told that even soldiers who died for this land still can’t call it their own?
Other countries are readying for a potential world war, unlike Labor, which has recklessly crippled our military and mocks the Coalition for promising $21 billion more for our defence.
Anthony Albanese’s claim that pausing campaign events out of respect for Pope Francis’ death was a tactic to make Labor seem friendly to the Christians — and once again, to persuade voters of something false.
It’s ludicrous that journalists would criticise Coalition defence spokesman Andrew Hastie for his comment that “the fighting DNA of a close combat unit is best preserved when it’s exclusively male”.
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton just got a brutal reminder that every Liberal leader should get through their head: you can’t run from these idiotic climate wars.
It must be dawning on America’s president he’s being treated as a weakling by Putin and the dictatorships backing him. But if Trump falls for it, he’ll look dumb as well – and that’s lethally dangerous for the free world.
The last thing our government needed in this election campaign was proof that war was coming our way but a hostile Russian-Chinese alliance is gradually surrounding us.
The Coalition can no longer ignore its own failings. Where is its overall vision? Just expecting voters to punish Labor for its failings was never enough.
In an election campaign drowning in utter bulltish, be sure to spare some contempt for sanctimonious Teal politicians caught in a cash-for-comment scandal.
