I& #39;m wondering about Scott Morrison& #39;s recent lightning visit to QLD to chant among his disciples.

Because Morrison does not do anything for nothing.

Everything is transactional.

Allegedly, his polling among Christians has fallen to 49%.

Hmmm. Time to bolster that back up.

.

Yes, I& #39;m aware the Resolve Poll this data comes from was released on April 20 - the same day the PM flew on a jet we paid for to preach to the converted.

But data can be leaked. Especially to the well connected

His visit was allegedly a surprise, but that may also be explained.

It& #39;s more likely than not that Morrison& #39;s team knew of his falling vote among Australian Christians & war-gamed his appearance at the Australian Christian Conference for political gain, also knowing full well the appearance would make its way into the media.

They knew the result

Morrison& #39;s massive image team also knew the hard & soft media & even the Great White Fence Sitter would fall into line playing out lines like "respect the Prime Minister" + "don& #39;t mock Christians" *

(* which nobody is doing. They& #39;re mocking Morrison himself - not Christianity)

What happens in these contrived scenarios that are all worked out behind the scenes in the Morrison war room is:

- Morrison gains Christian votes

- the media get to milk the Outrage Machine for their own selfish benefit

- Morrison& #39;s base push back, garnering him more sympathy
