Day 12 cont 💰 👮‍♂️ 👨‍⚖️

The #Liberals have a #candidate problem continued:

“The #Coalition’s (#LNP) election campaign is being dogged by a lengthening list of #CandidateIssues, the latest revelation that the contender (#JeffreyKidney) for the #Melbourne seat of #Wills pleaded #guilty to obtaining financial advantage by #deception and was ordered to pay #fines and #compensation worth more than $10,000.”

The poor quality of candidates is beginning to bite the Liberals.

Day 12 cont 💰🧧🇨🇳

The #Liberals have a candidate problem continued:

“Liberal #candidate #ScottYung and party officials have declined to answer detailed #questions about whether his use of #Chinese celebrities and a public relations firm in the 2019 #StateElection complied with official #guidelines, as the Liberal party confirms an #audit of campaign disclosures.

A private dinner at a “luxurious venue” in #Sydney to raise #CampaignFunds for Yung, featuring the former Liberal prime minister #TonyAbbott, has also been cancelled without explanation.”

“Wishing the talented young Chinese Mr #RongSicheng [Scott Yung] has great success ahead and a boundless future! All the best! I’m #ZhangTielin from #Beijing, #China.”

The cursed Liberal Christian name “Scott” strikes again.

Day nine cont: The Opposition has a #candidate problem.

Not enough diversity. Amelia is a good candidate, The #AFR describes Amelia as bringing, a “#Millennial edge”. Right pedigree (Dicks Grand niece), #OxfordUniversity educated, lives locally. The problem, I’m a renter …and I’m also a home owner that I failed to disclose.

no

not voting has no blame in the minds of some on the #left

because their personal feeling about themselves is more important than mattering in the world

so voting for a #candidate they feel is impure is so terrible, they don't #vote, then the #right wins

that's #toxidealism in a nutshell:

people whose personal sense of their #ideological purity, how they feel about themselves, is more important than messy impure strategy to get effective change in the world

Many factors why #Trump won

The most crucial piece is that #socialmedia is the center of all attention

Not unique to the #USA

Example:

"#FarRight #candidate takes shock lead in #Romania presidential #election"

bbc.com/news/articles/c9dlw5pq

#Georgescu is anti-#NATO, anti-#EU and admires #Putin

He joined in August in 8th place. He is now in 1st

Why?

Social media saturation

Forget #cable, forget the #press: dead #media

Social media is killing #Democracy

This is now our greatest struggle

BBC News · Far-right candidate takes shock lead in Romania presidential election - BBC NewsCalin Georgescu, a NATO and EU critic, is ahead in the first round of voting, overtaking the prime minister.

In the interviews, #JohnKelly expanded on his previously expressed concerns & stressed that voters, in his view, should consider fitness & #character when selecting a president, even more than a candidate’s stances on the issues.

“In many cases, I would agree w/some of [#Trump’s] policies,” he said, STRESSING that as a fmr MILITARY officer he was not endorsing any #candidate. “But again, it’s a very dangerous thing to have the wrong person elected…”
