At least my bet on him came in. Same as it did for Brexit.

Lord Sugar has decided to put a party together to have a go at the next General Election. "If that wanker can win an election after doing a shitter version of The Apprentice than mine then I can win in Politics too!" Lord Sugar has said.

How long will Trump last?

RIP Nate Silver

Oh America what have you done.

Trump is no Hitler but he does resemble another historical figure. One hundred years ago a great military power was ruled by an aggressive, impulsive, nasty egomaniacal believer in conspiracy theories. Tsarina Alexandra said "he thinks he is a genius but really he is a clown" Donald Trump is horribly reminiscent of the Kaiser

The Irish reaction.

Boom!

Boom!

****! has he pressed it already?

The Simpson's predicted a Trump president.
In the year 2000 episode "Bart to the Future" which showed a view of the future there's a scene where Lisa Simpson is in the oval office and says these lines.

"We've inherited quite a budget crunch from President Trump,"

"How bad is it Secretary van Houten?"

I think it's brilliant.

 

[Mawsley]

America got the President it deserved, however the rest of the world didn't.

Exactly.

This confirmed my brothers hope that Britain is not the dumbest country in the world.

I don't think it's going to be as bad as people make out. There are many countries with leaders that are far worse and let's face it Russia has Putin. It may even see a friendlier atmosphere between the superpowers, and a more co-operative situation. As for England, Trump is probably a better outcome than Clinton.

In the end it's the antiquated system that needs looking at. The people of the USA were given the choice of Trump or Clinton. Neither of them should even have got to the ballot. If 2 years ago you'd said to Americans that Bernie Sanders will be the President this time around they'd have laughed you off and called him a commie bastard, if he'd have stood against Trump yesterday he'd have won in a landslide - but the democrats decided to run Clinton instead.

Instead of worrying about other countries and ridiculing other electors or democratically elected people we should concern ourselves with getting the right people in charge of our own countries, people who can negotiate and work with those who are in power elsewhere not those that will alienate them.

Pah, you won't be so relaxed when Le Pen gets in.
