Winning!

Look I know we give Trump shit all of the time for not being able to make good on any of his campaign promises, but you have to admit this IS pretty damn impressive.

And remember it has only been six months. Just imagine how many more title he might be able to steal from his predecessors.

Watch out William Howard Taft, you might be the next one to lose your title.

Australian politicians have apparently decided to try and out stupid American politicians. Oh it's on!

Courtesy of the Sydney Morning Herald: 

“No one,” Tony Abbott told a Melbourne gathering of Liberal Party faithful, “however smart, however well-educated, however experienced … is the suppository of all wisdom”. 

The Opposition Leader's travelling mentor, Philip Ruddock, squirmed and the Victorian MP Josh Frydenberg took a few seconds to register what his leader had said. 

“Suppository?” Mr Frydenberg mouthed to a grey-haired man standing next to him. The man nodded gravely, perhaps recognising that Mr Abbott intended to say repository, a place where things are stored. 

As so often happens these days with political gaffes, within 30 minutes the hashtag #suppository was trending on Twitter, accompanied by photo-shopped images of Mr Abbott with suppository-inspired captions (“know your enema”, “squeezing out a policy”, etc). 

It didn't help that Mr Abbott's slip-up reminded people of Tony Windsor's claim that the Opposition Leader told him he would do anything to secure a minority government during negotiations after the last election, except "sell my arse". 

Now of course this comes on the heels of the crazy One Party candidate who thought that Islam was a country.
"Okay look I quit, can we stop talking about it now?"

What's up Australia? First you show off your Sarah Palin wannabe, and now you have a George Bush impersonator?

Well give it up Australia, your politicians will NEVER out dumb America's politicians!

Have you forgotten about this guy?

That's right Aussies, we're number one! We're number one! We're number....wait.

Update: I wrote this post last night before bed, and thought that my comparison of Australian and American gaffes was brilliant and completely original, only to watch the Daily Show later that night to see this

"She's not just Sarah Palin, she's turbo Sarah Palin." Damn you John Oliver!
