Is she like that to politicians who aren't on their way out too? He seems an easy enough target given he lost, his party only got 1% of the vote, and he's likely to be done.
Thing is a lot of people don't think its worth comparing themselves to Americans when they should strive their country to be better than "well it's better than the US" mentality in actual better countries out there. That's why I personally dislike it when Canadians use that as a reasoning to not push for better policies or how they describe the country. Leave that husk of a third world mess posing as first world behind.
That being said, they do agree that right-wing conspiracy theory mentality has no place in NZ, (despite that party still somehow getting 1% of votes).
Refreshing stuff. We used to have good regular jugular thrashing interviews here in the UK back in the day with figures like Paxman before the BBC slowly dissolved its soul in a wine spritzer.
It's nice to see but I don't think it would work against most seasoned scum bag politicians who just stick to the same line over and over, time wasting etc. She would never get the chance to do that to most.
