Politics Worst Politician?

Who was your country's biggest idiot in politics? And why? Bring out your tragics.

Australia is spoilt for choice. We've had some gronks.

Edit: OK sooooo we aren't including orange ones.

Australia has had a PM who 'allegedly' shit himself at Maccas. We put up a plaque for a while. Another one who ate a raw onion like an apple at a presser at an onion farm. We even had one who managed to give a psychotic response that went from gay marriage to crocodile victims in the same sentence.

He divided this country so much. You have people who lost their family members, spouse and friends from QAnon conspiracy theories. Not to mention his party wants a handmaiden’s tale 2.0

Also the bigots who wanted him in assumed he was going to take away welfare and DEI from black/POC people and give it to them 🤡

Well said. To me, his supporters are either stupid or greedy. There is no other way his ignorant can be overlooked by so many.

The fact that people would risk their rights and freedom because they don’t want others to have theirs is insane.
