individual,

The Greens have gone quiet because the the China virus lockdown and restrictions have shown them what the world will look like with zero emissions and overpriced, unreliable energy.

When the China virus is dealt with - and it will be, but not by China - we have to do some rethinking

Can an economy be based on digging things up while debasing universities with dumbed-down courses for fee-paying visitors who barely speak English as the nation attempts to build a robust economy by carrying tourists’ bags and serving each other cups of artisan coffee?

Coffee shops, dog washers and nail bars.

The government needs to stick to its core duties and stop meddling in every aspect of private and social life. This (the China virus emergency) is the wake-up call the country had to have.

Apart from the odd spot of spying and agitating for the CCP, as well as getting residency via the back door and bringing in their families later on, Chinese students flock to Australia because of the low standards of Australian universities. Almost all of them pass because of soft marking. These students can't pass the entry requirements of other Western countries.

Dear individual,

What? How on earth was that question suppose to drive controversy?

Reporter's simple question: “What do you say to Americans who are scared?”

Trump: “I say, you’re a terrible reporter.”

At least Pence's reply later to a very similar question was a halfway normal response; "Don't be afraid be vigilant." My goodness what was so hard about that? What a complete and utter self serving moron your president is.

SteeleRedux,
It was the insidious nature of the question with the incriminating part not in the video.
You know the Leftist way of distorting to divide !

SteeleRedux,
My guess is that Trump is forewarned when such division-seeking reporters are in the mob & when he replies to questions such as this one he already has some history at hand about the journo so he can cut short his reply.
People who can think, don't have to rely on endless waffle to get the gist know when a question has an underlying mischievous tone & they answer accordingly !
This reporter knew exactly that his question would create turmoil if Trump let himself get dragged into an unwinnable slanging match with 20 journalists !
Well done Uncle Donny !

Nathan isn't the only person with a peculiar take on freedoms and liberty. Someone calling himself 'currency lad' had this to say about the closing of Bondi beach because halfwits couldn't keep 1.5 metres apart:

"NSW Police Minister David Elliott today shut down Bondi beach because many more than 500 people – mostly young – were gathered there. The arrogant Mr Elliott says he might shut down beaches elsewhere throughout the state if it suits him. Politicians and the ‘authorities’ are in a daily virtue auction where the more draconian the measures, the more in-charge they feel. About six people will perish on our roads this weekend. Should driving be banned? If not, why not? What would police have done today had those hundreds of beach-goers refused to move? Shoot them? From the peanut gallery comes the old question: if sacrificing some freedom will save lives, it’s worth it – isn’t it? No."

I say bullshite to 'currency lad' too.
