Honestly, I'd think Dan would deserve it more. Despite being somewhat incompetent, I think he'd do a better job because he's consistent with his beliefs, and despite it not always turning out, works hard. I mean, so does Gladys, but I'd say Dan moreso. Along with remaining (mostly) consistent, he's still pretty popular, compared to how Michael O'Crying's doing.
Speaking of the Australien,

only 19 days into the year and they're out with a climate denial piece.
To wrap this up,
honest question,
who do you think's done better in 2020?
Dan
OR
Gladys
OR
Anna
OR
Clive
OR
WA Premier
OR
SA Premier?
OR
Debbie?
Gosh, you don't even know the name of Mark McGowan or Steven Marshall? I already knew we were irrelevant to the eastern states but dang. Honestly I might be biased as a South Aussie (though I think the Libs are crap so there's that) but Steven Marshall handled it the best. Gladys and Anna wouldn't get it mostly for reasons people have already brought up about how mediocre they are (also Ruby Princess anyone?). Dan can't get it because of the Victorian second wave. Sure he gets credit for ending it but he also started it, so... there's that. And Mark McGowan is a hypochondriac who would jump out of a plane if he heard someone on the total other side cough even a little (Bonus negative points for closing the border with SA when the Parafield cluster started and forcing people already in the air on the way from Adelaide to Perth to quarantine on arrival or fly home immediately. That was f**ked and he should not be allowed to do that). The other two are irrelevant since they aren't heading a state. Same goes for the Tasmainan premier because Tasmania is too small to matter (more like too small to get much press, they seem to have done fine with the pandemic but they're small, irrelevant and an island which all help to control the spread of the virus).
