in a debate like this perceptions matter.
To most, yes, but Trump simply doesnt appear to care, even when a huge chunk of his country does. The Chinese also dont appear to care, as they know they are too big to be openly challenged.
Our pollies dont care, because we are small fry in a big pond, and it will only stay news for a day or so.
They will all still go to the right places, say the right things then go away and do what they want in the pursuit of profit at any cost.
Perhaps its a sign, but whilst watching tonights news, i saw that Ian MacDonald was finally jailed for misusing his power in office to give away mining rights to his mates. Lets hope its the first of many.
