The bluenami ( which I predicted)

 Let me pound my chest. When Trump won in 2024 I said he would lose bigtime in the mid-terms  in september. 

Let us go through a few things shall we.

Trump is terrible at politics

He won in a fluke in 2016 and courtesy of Comey's improper intervention. He got a minority of the vote. He badly lost the mid-terms and in other years. He won narrowly in 2024 when incumbent government lost big.  He is an expert at choosing bad candidates.

Polling

Yes Trump over-performed in election compared to polling in 2016 (a little) and 2024 ( a lot) BUT democrats over-performed in mid-terms since 2016!

Policies

I stated when he won his policies were incoherent and would lead to disaster. Tariffs would lead to increased costs and therefore prices is just one example. He never understood tariffs and no-one was around to correct him.

He was in a bubble

He had a blonde printing out only good news. He simply did not know what the punters thought.

The major issues

He was badly behind on all major issues even immigration. See previous topic. When you arrest law abiding people rather than the worst of the worst and then kill people and lie in court about arrests it eventually hits home. Latinos hit with inflation and then this said bye bye to trump.

Corruption

He did not even try to hide his corruption as he thought he was bullet proof. He wasn't. Like Orbaan he got hit with this linked to inflation.

Incompetence

When you appoint people because of loyalty not ability shite happens. The DOJ is possibly the best example of this.

Revenge

It was only a small issue but simply added to others. You cannot deny lawfare when you openly state it and when the cases blow up it only made it worse.

Billionaires

They wasted a lot of money and actually made it a positive issue for Democrats. Musk for example is political poison 

The gerrymandering by republicans was incompetent. they lost almost all the seats they thought they would win. One swing was over 70%. 

Iran War

Whoopsy how could I forget this. An example of Trump incompetence in action that punished americans because he was too lazy to do his job properly. This and epstein meant the typical punter got sick of his lies.

the rate rise we had to have

 The RBA raised interest rates as expected. HERE is an article on the rise which I don't disagree with much.

Models never predict turning points very well. I think we are close to that now. When we are there price rises wil slow quite a lot.

A lot of people are saying it feels like a recession now even the RBA governor has commented on this. It is a load of hooey. ( that is a technical term.) If people simply 'felt' a recession and acted like that then inflation would not be a problem.

It is a bit like people saying housing is now unaffordable. If this was the case then housing prices would have been falling well before interest rates started to rise.

Thus I suspect rates may well fall sometime next year as  inflation falls by more than expected.

A few things on melbourne cup day

 melbourne cup rant

I have always found it hypocritical that employers who bemoan public holidays and scream about productivity are mute on melbourne cup day. It epitomises Australia. We bludge on a day to celebrate a damned horse race. We get drunk and lose money betting on it. 

usa

That court case involving two FBI agents got tossed as did the alaskan case.(see the florida lawman on youtube for a good explanation of the decision.)

They vote tomorrow and Brad De Long has possibly the best article on the polls.

In Michigan the gal who lost the democratic senate primary now supports the republican. She DEMANDED he call out ads done by third parties. It seems calling him a jihadist a supporter of ISIS, muslim brotherhood, al qaeda is fine!

I see the republican candidate in Kansas is saying the democratic candidate could have been grooming young boys!

My view is if you ( yes I am talking to you yanks) don't think Trump needs some checks and balances then sorry you are very stupid!!

different

it appears  people see phantom lighthouses here is OZ.

Cricket and other stuff

 Test Cricket

How did we lose a series we should have won 3-0? Well how about selecting an opener who has not played much cricket over the last 2 years. What about selecting a first drop who has not performed for years.  How about selecting a number 6 as opener. This means you are two down for not much a lot of the time. Then you get to our middle order brittleness that was exposed in the last two tests.

What about transition problems. We have a heap of players in their mid 30s or approaching it. I can see quite a few retiring after the Ashes. We did have a great quartet of bowlers but clearly they were affected by the test schedule. I think Hazelwood and Lyons cannot play 5 tests and are showing their age. Boland should be used at present to give some bowlers a rest.

Whoopsy I forgot to mention the pitches and swing. There was precious little swing in all three tests. There was a bit of nip but not a lot and only spun from the footmarks. In other words the batsmen should have had the time of their lives yet they did not. Batting technique everywhere is poor.

Polling

The ALP continues to lose votes as another rate rise looms. Fancy that. I can't believe it!

Housing Affordability

home prices are falling at the largest for over 20 years. IF you want greater affordability then this is a good thing. If you want hose prices to rise you do not understand the topic.

USA

DOJ has lost the-presumption-of-regularity. In the case of the two FBI agents charged they have not even talked to anyone who actually heard what they said!

Trump's  lawyers were very poor in the WSJ case and look to be the same in the BBC case.

Few people it appears rank voting. We civilised aussies call it preferential voting. This writer does. Putting up a candidate with the same name as a major candidate can work in first past the post. It doesn't in rank voting

UK 

The Labour party has brought down quite austere budgets and as Simon Wren-Lewis shows this has come about by taxes and spending. By the way the UK are much better than other leading nations where the USA are  clearly the worst.
