Wry & Dry #39-25 Egos at 20 paces. Singed beard. Goldilocks GDP.

When the two biggest egos in the world start throwing verbal rocks at each other, why would the media worry about Trumpster’s phone chat with Emperor Eleven (on tariffs) and meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz (Ukraine)?  It didn’t.

It all started when Musk labelled Trumpster’s budget as an ‘abomination.’ Trumpster’s glass jaw then shattered into a thousand pieces. And that’s when ego overtook rationality. The exchange of insults blotted out the sun.

Wry & Dry #33 FY-24. Back to the Future. Naked opportunism. Exempt me from 30% super tax.

Yesterday, Albo hopped into his flux-capacitor driven DeLorean and flew Australia back to the 1950s. Where it will convert into an FJ Holden world of tariffs and high costs.

Albo’s uncosted ‘Future Made in Australia policy’ dwarfed last week’s heady announcement of $1 billion of we-the-taxpayers’ money going to the feel-good cause of manufacturing solar panels. This is “No Australian child will ever live in poverty” (they still do) revisited, touched with “We will plant one billion trees” (we didn’t).
