Hindsight is 20/20, but I am not sure the the Sydney Marathon finisher's medal design was ever a good one for a coastal Australian town. #running

I'd be interested in a thread expanding on this topic...
Names of various running shoes.
The marketing firm that names thoroughbred racehorses clearly has a side hustle branding running shoes.

Malabar Giant Squirrel
Malabar Giant Squirrel
The Malabar Giant Squirrel is an absolutely fine looking animal. Not sure why I need to share that opinion, but I do.
Could the visible discomfort I attributed to a spineless inability to criticize Washington, actually have been due to the guilt of concocting false narratives covering our complicitity in Trump's scheme?
/end
Months from now, we might find Australiaβs 10% tariff is quietly negotiated away for meaningless baubles. It sounds conspiratorial - but it would explain politiciansβ past inability to give forthright answers. /19
Of course, thereβs another possibility: the 10% tariff on Australia may not actually exist. Australian politicians could be complicit in Washingtonβs scheme, providing countries Trump *actually* sees as "perpetrators" with an example of the "correct" response. /18
Trump does not respect obsequious minions. He is purely transactional. Obedience only invites further burdens. Weakness is disdainfully exploited. /17
By trying not to poke the bear, we immediately surrendered an equal negotiating position. To remove or reduce the 10% tariff will require concessions on our existing position, whereas Washington will be bargaining with assets that never really existed. /16
On April 3 Albanese did exactly what Washington hoped, announcing we would not be responding in kind. /15

Obsequious in their refusal to forthrightly call out the inanity of the proposed tariffs or say anything that might jeopardize the βspecial relationshipβ. Absurdly, Australia runs a trade deficit with the US - if Trumpβs logic held, Australian goods should get negative tariffs. /14
For the past month, weβve watched Australian politicians dance around the question of upcoming tariffs. Itβs been embarrassing to see them squirm - uncomfortably and unconvincingly explaining how Australia would react.
/13
Yes, they played it wrong - wrong for Trump.
It's a brave strategy, and one that certainly hasn't worked with China.
(Someone is panicked. Hint: it's not China)
