We’re halfway through one of the most awful years in recent history, and the end of the month sees another group of somewhat awful people nominated for the June 2020 Jerk of the Month poll.
Yes it’s that time where the worst of the worst of the past month can get some comeuppance with our June 2020 Jerk of the Month poll, and the winner is chosen by you.
Some nominations are obvious and regular, others may be just passing through Jerk town for a month or two and are normally not that bad, but all of them are ready for your vote.
They asked for it.
Enjoy the list but this month you can only vote for one at a time. But feel free to refresh and re-vote as many times as you like.
Vote early, vote often.

June 2020 Jerk of the Month Nomination Form Guide
You may notice the Jerk Rating with each nomination, an explanation of the D, I and C is available at the end.
JERK – CORONAVIRUS aka COVID-19
Pandemic with menace
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
For spreading misery.
And now for Australians with the spike in Victoria, the threat of going back to the bad old days makes you hate it just that little bit more.
People from Melbourne like to think they are on the cutting edge and so much more like Europe so it seems fitting that the disease is going in for second in Victoria only at this stage.

JERK – DONALD J TRUMP
POS-US and you can guess what the J stands for.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
One that is penciled in each month, and another month he has delivered loads of jerk.
It’s hard to know which month is worse, but here is the list for June……
For tear-gassing protesters and media so he can hold a bible in front of a church.
For “joking” about slowing down testing while cases and death rise.
Cancelling Obamacare when Coronavirus cases are spiking.

JERK – SAM NEWMAN
Ex AFL commentator and former co-host of Sam and the Fatman.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
Going above and beyond the Footy Show banter with this and this.

JERK – PETE EVANS
Used to cook with fruit as TV chef now just a full time fruit.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
Remember when the most hateable thing about him was everything on MKR, now it is just everything?
He has really gone off the rails since getting the arse from MKR, and is especially targeting Coronavirus,
Of course he’s entitled to his opinion, and now so are you with a jerk of the month nomination to vote for him.

JERK – SELECTED US POLICE
Not all US Law Enforcers are bad, but these ones are.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
Shooting man in wheelchair in face with foam bullets.
Shooting a man dead in the back in a drive thru.

JERK – GUN TOTING US COUPLE
Not all US Law Enforcers are bad, but these ones are.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
There’s no better look and combination of what is happening in the US right now than this gun toting couple waiving their guns at Black Lives Matter protesters near their property.
Pretty sure it is the first gun toting couple to be nominated for Jerk of the Month.

JERK – PAULINE HANSON
Another Qld senator making the state look grape again.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
This.
And continual moaning about borders, which is quite funny given the usual viewpoint about borders is the reverse.

D – 10/10 I – 10/10 C – 10/10
JERK – DEB FRECKLINGTON
Queensland opposition leader and anti everything.
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
What’s great in the middle of a once in a century health crisis is someone coming on TV every night to blame the current government for everything.
That’s all she has. Everything is the government’s fault. No new ideas,, no idea of actual running of the state.
One of the most depressing parts on the news at the moment is seeing her pathetic excuse for opposition “policy” all the time.
And the people around her. Like the ex shadow Police minister who was busted for breaking social distance pretty early into the crisis.
And she looks less and less likely that she’ll make it to the election as leader anyway. Which is good, as she currently looks like she has no idea how to run the state.

JERK – NOVAK DJOKOVIC
Top tennis player and ringmaster of Covid
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
Despite having the best of intentions, the tennis tournament he was in charge of has spread Covid across the playing group.
You know you have done badly, when Nick Kyrgios has the moral high ground and is giving it to you on social media.
Same with Alexander Zverev who has behaved even more selfishly than Djokovic.

JERK – IPSWICH TOWN
Mediocre sporting team
Why have they been such a jerk this month?
For going from a mediocre second division team to a mediocre third division team.

JERK – ERIN MOLAN
Channel Nein media personality
She claims it was an inside joke of an inside joke. Like most of Channel Nein sporting coverage. And like most of the Channel Nein experience of sporting coverage, it was not funny and awful. Although worth pointing out that her “joke” about pronouncing Polynesian names was not on Channel Nein.
Not the first time either, after fat shaming Dave Taylor as host of the Sunday Footy Show a few years back.
JERK RATING 50%
D – 4/10 I – 2/10 C – 9/10′
JERK – PETER FITZSIMMONS
Another Channel Nein media personality
Three Jerk of the Month nominations from one sports network. See a trend here?
Of course we don’t like Channel Nein, but the nominations aren’t likable either.
Fitzsimmons is nominated for his consistent attacks on rugby league and the NRL competition returning.
Worth noting is his status as a former rugby union Australian rep. And rugby is going so much better. Better like virtual V8 racing out-rates actual Super rugby.
And really, just for his consistent moaning on Wide Worlds of Sport most Sundays.

[…] Perhaps you could just do less tipping, so you get less NRL tips wrong. Much like how a certain President suggests for other things. By the way, he and others are nominated for June 2020 Jerk of the Month awards. […]
