    Except he’s only doing it to get elected. Once in you know he’s going to hitch back up to the Trump train

        Palmer seems to think otherwise

          Yeah but Palmer’s objective is not to get elected.

          He uses the election as a platform to promote these far-right ideas.

          People that vote for him will ultimately preference LNP before ALP anyway.

      I’m hoping that him backing down from stuff won’t play well with his base. They like someone who appears tough.

      Albanese drawing a hard line on the biosecurity/pharmaceutical stuff with the US is a nice juxtaposition.
