The Western Australian premier, Roger Cook, has apologised after calling the US vice-president, JD Vance, a “knob” at a pre-election event in Perth.
At the West Australian’s Leadership Matters event on Tuesday morning, at which Cook was the guest speaker, a journalist asked the premier to finish the sentence: “JD Vance is a …” Cook replied: “Knob.”
Cook then said: “You’ve got to have one unprofessional moment, don’t you? That was it.”
His description won him laughs and a round of applause from the audience.

For context, this guy is the current state premier, similar to a US state governor I guess.
He is from our Labor party which is centre-left. In the last election the Labor party won 53 out of 59 seats. His party had overwhelming support at that time.
Of course the pendulum will swing back to the right at the upcoming election on Saturday, but I don’t think it will swing far enough for the conservatives to form government.
Fucking why? Decorum went out the window when the Great Orange Retard (in every offensive sense of the word) got “elected” and began his massive conflict of interest existence on Day 0.
Fuck it, just kill them. Pull a “Designated Survivor”.
I don’t see that there’s anything to apologize for here.
In the article it was pretty much a non-apology made when journalists pressed him on it later.
Same with the oval office. They were saying zelensky was disrespectful. When? I watched the whole thing and was insanely impressed by his restraint. Everyone who does even the smallest favor for Vance should harass him about being thankful. His behavior was absolutely disgusting.
Zelenskyy should have busted out with “Maybe we can come to an agreement if I fake some ‘evidence’ against someone you don’t like?”
He didn’t offer to fellate Trump even once. Disrespectful!
And did you see how he was dressed!? So disrespectful!
(/s)
Not one bit. That language was way too soft.
Australia, I know y’all can throw better and harsher insults. Please bring it.
We need more of this sort of vibe out there!
Aka more progressives less democrats
He is a Democrat.
JD Vance is a fucking knob.
Don’t apologize. The vice-dachshund is a knob.
“I’m sorry that you’re a knob.”
He is sorry that Vance is a knob.
He apologized for not calling him massive knob.
ah. now it makes sense.
I’m sorry I called you a knob, that’s an insult to knobs. You’re actually much, much worse.
