we all know about Malcom trunbull and how he lost his place but soon it will all be forgotten. but when it comes to America.....see where im going. every one looks to America. when we vote in Australia for a new prime minister no-one gives a damn. but when America is electing a new president everyone gets all hipped about it. somehow it is interesting and the interviews all of a sudden become like a game show. do even get me started on Donald trump!!!! a lot of people thought the world was gonna end when he got elected. What do u think.  :D

is there an option for neither?

Put simply, I honestly don't really pay much attention to politics of other countries unless I read it via media as a breaking news article. In terms of Aussie politics, I was disengaged from it a long time before today when pollies started stabbing each other in the back and looking after their own interests instead of the Australian public's.

I don't think I want politics to be interesting - that is, if "interesting" means watching a train-wreck in progress.
