I really can't believe those two were the only choices or should I say best choices for the President of America, astonishing then again they voted in the all American Hero Ronald Regan as President No wonder the Yanks are fuking up our Football club.
Great news for the U.K. with the Republicans saying they will support a free trade deal with the U.K. Our FTSE 100 is even increasing in value on the Trump victory.
The Democrats who said we were going to the back of the queue are looking very stupid now.
Indeed, their columnists ( "Clinton will win, liberal renaissance" ) are looking foolish right now.
I love the way Owen Jones is scouring the demographics, trying to find reasons, trying to find excuses and blame.
"It's all white males fault, racists, xenophobes yadda yadda "
Why do the left fail to understand the reason Trump won wasn't because Trump was an amazing candidate. It was because Clinton was an utter joke of candidate.
Played the "wronged woman" card years ago, failed to kick Bill to the curb as that would be detrimental to her political ambitions. Ignore Whitewater and Vincent Foster. Has the blood of the murdered in Benghazi on her hands. Blatent disregard for even basic security regulations with regards to confidential emails just for "convenience". Lack of any semblance of charisma or personality, Nothing likeable about her whatsoever.
Any other democratic candidate would have done a hell of a lot better, Trump would have lost.
Anybody who thinks that the treasonous, lying, cheating, thieving, paedo, vodoo, murderous Clintons in the White House would have been better than Trump is some kind of sick person.
As I said before, nothing says "sticking two fingers up at the establishment" quite like electing Trump, who had already promised to ensure that corporations can donate as much money to candidates as they want (as he did in his previous life too).
In respect of Trump in the US, it may not turn out as people think. The Republicans in the Senate and the Representatives have little in common with the Donald and a lot of vested interests of their own. They could well dilute and block most of his plans (such as they are).
The conditions driving the vote for Trump and Brexit have been sown by a relentless diet of pseudo-liberalism in the press and promulgated by the back-slappers and happy clappers in the political establishment. Theres been a feedback loop that has made certain things impossible to say and certain groups totally disenfranchised. That sort of self-censorship has left a section of the population with no voice. Increasingly a sector of voters who have not benefitted at all from the riches brought by freer trade and cheap global labour. For all their faults, Trump (and Farage) have dared to mention the unmentionable and have found a willing audience, people alienated by that self-reinforcing pseudo-liberalism and forgotten by those in the corridors of power.
If you can fill the unforgiving minute.
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
