Trump saves the subs

Bob Pearce, Adelaide SA, Feb 10, 2025

What Australia needs:

  • Another Trump light bulb moment where he decides that Biden/Morrison did a dumb deal (he may well take our money and tell us to p*** off but in the long run thatwill be cheaper).
  • A hung parliament in which Dutton won’t work with the independents.
  • Richard Marles to lose his seat.
  • The “Future made in Australia” to kick in.

It is standard Trump/defence business practice to quote low and once the build reaches critical mass the customer has no choice but to hold on and pay up and go along for the rough ride. Eg. In South Australia when you are not watching the car race, or gathering round the golf etc take a look at the billion-dollar mess that the SA government is trying to sort out in the Whyalla steel works. Incidentally, ships were once built there too.

Share and Enjoy !
