right now the coalition is deciding whether or not to continue its trajectory towards trumpist alt right politics or realign itself as a centre right party.
Yet the Australian people firmly rejected that Trumpism, and the Liberal party, which is who I was referring too, seem to be keen to push towards the centre under Sussan Ley.
The likelihood that we get a Trump style, fascist government that ignores the rule of law and the courts is infinitesimally small, especially with our mandatory and preferential voting system. The Coalition are awful, but to call them fascist is to water down the term until it has no meaning.
Edit: The one caveat I’ll add is Jacinta Price defecting to the Liberals but it’s not like the rest of the party had a choice in that matter, and I think they will grow increasingly frustrated with her if she repeats her Trumpist clowning during the next election.
