Under POTUS Trump, The Old Religions Fell in a Single Day
And the Coalition needs to get on board fast.
Last week, we saw the old religions — that have ruled us for the past decade thanks to paranoia, pomposity and personal vanity — fall in a single day.
Here are four changes that occurred on the day of Donald Trump’s inauguration — changes that conservatives in the rest of the West, not least our own Peter Dutton, need to get up to speed with before events overtake them.
1. Identity politics is now a thing of ridicule.
Diversity, equity and inclusion are divisive and oppressive.
Merit is the new cool.
2. Gender ideology is a lie, and everyone knows it.
People espousing gender fluidity are not inclusive. They are idiots.
Men cannot become women.
Biology is back in vogue.
3. Net zero is caput.
Growth and profit are no longer evil.
The Bible’s command to “fill the earth and subdue it” is the new black.
4. Open borders are dangerous.
People opposing open borders have, for years, been demonised as racists and bigots. No more.
It is by now obvious that strong border control, with a measured and controlled immigration policy, is the only sane position.
Unless you love terrorism, crime and falling living standards, of course.
National sovereignty is back! As is national pride.
A lot of people are arguing that Trump’s victory exposes the stupidity of the Left. And it most certainly does.
But I would argue that there is even more pressure on conservatives around the world who, for the past ten years or more, have played at being conservative lite. They have been content to go along with the insanity, only at a slower pace, in a bid to sneak into office.
No more.
The time to stand up, advocate for common sense, and courageously stand on conviction is now.
Peter Dutton must wholeheartedly embrace the new reality.
Meritocracy. Biology. Growth. National Sovereignty. Those are the four keys to winning big at the next election.

Rupert Lowe has just released The Rape Gang Inquiry Report. Occurring over decades, some 250,000 girls were raped, tortured, and abused, with some even killed. Yet authorities and the media covered up these diabolical crimes in the interests of not being 'racist' and 'Islamophobic'.

Christian, captain and soccer legend Lionel “Leo” Messi is giving all the glory to God as he makes FIFA 2026 World Cup headlines. The Argentinian is widely respected for his integrity, humility and the way he carries himself on and off the pitch.
What is needed is a REAL Menzies – style Liberal PM not too afraid to ” clean out the swamp”, eg Abbott or some young, true Conservative , not Dutton , who, in my view, is too much like Albanese whom he warmly embraced when they passed the Under 16 Internet Bill. I don’t see much future for Australia led by Dutton who is no Trump ! We are slavishing following neo-Marxist de facto Islamic UK with its 85 Islamic Courts by silencing Aussie patriots, while letting the real “terrorists “a free ride ! “Teachers for Palestine ” will have a Teachers + student Strike on Anzac Day.No wonder cenotaphs are desecrated!They have produced a 40 page booklet titled : “Teaching for Palestine challenging Anzac Day “…… introduce our students to the real history of the Anzacs in Palestine + elsewhere”. “Colonial War “to harm indigenous populations.
All day at school in Victoria teachers + staff wear keffiyeh, Palestine badges , Pro -Palestine T-shirts+ have Group photos . The Aim of the Marches ? To destroy democracy .To be replaced with Communism or Sharia Law.
Has Dutton the courage to stop this ? I think not !
Muslim Fatima Payman’s “Australia Voice Party “is another danger to our democracy.
Correction–Payman ‘s Party is called “Australia’s Voice “. She founded it because Australian Govt was not supporting Palestine at that time.Interesting point —how many Muslins are in govt in USA? And how many are Republican Muslims in govt ?
Thank you James, I greatly enjoy your posts, exposing & satirising the sacred cows of our day. And because laughter is good medicine, I feel very well, as no doubt many others are. Thank you for coining the phrase, ‘conservative lite’. May truth prevail in our churches.
Don’t look this gift horse in the mouth Peter Dutton – and get on it’s back before it bolts and leaves the LNP in the dust.
I have little hope in any Liberal politician because of the restraints on them by false conservatives in Parliaments. Voters need to support Family First especially Bernie Finn who was expelled from Victorian Liberals for being RIGHT and fearlessy prolife. But until a critical mass accepts Jesus Christ as our Saviour and King, we are fast approaching the dismal and dangerous condition of Britain.
