A choice between an A*hole and a P*ck for voters. Nothing changes.

Hillary won the popular vote by a surprisingly significant margin, but was clearly "trumped" by the release by WikiLeaks of those alleged emails, Some of which would seem to be fake? And the unprecedented intervention by the FBI! Plus the fact that the Intel community believes as she does, on widespread Russian interference in democratic elections. All of which combined to sway ultra critical college votes.

That said, she ought to have brought Bernie into her campaign as her running mate and allowed most of his semi socialist paradigm and policy stance to be the message!

She was hopeless at reading the public mood for change, we can all believe in! Which has not gone away or become diminished! Just the opposite!

So to some extent, she was the author of her own demise? On the understanding there's no longer a left or right! Just up or down, good or bad policy for born again pragmatists!

Guardian Angel of public morality and the public's right to know. Hahahaha. Julian Assange still hides out in the Ecuadorian embassy, even though Sweden has dropped criminal action against him! His alleged reason for being there!

Clearly and self evidently, the only fantasy on display here is that of the anti American, Anti Clinton, Assange defending Author?
Birds of a feather?

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned by Bill , Monica , Donald and Vladimir the Hacker .

Clinton blew it. She didn't campaign in three critical states, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, blandly assuming they were in the bag. She lost them, three crucial states and their electoral college votes, by a total of barely a couple of hundred thousand actual votes, and thereby the Presidency. Now we're stuck with Trump, at least for now. Thanks, Hill !

Killarney is a war criminal and psychopath, no ifs, no but's, no maybe's!

As to the Russian hack, well seventeen US intel agencies have yet to find one scrap of evidence. Additionally, the data stolen from the DNC server was downloaded at a speed too high for hacking, i.e. it had to be downloaded to an external USB type device. This evidence has been proven as fact. Therefore no Russian hack, the US MSM should put up or shut up, as should the democratic shills spouting the Russia did it fantasy.

Clinton lost, too bad. Good riddance.

As to Trump, well what you see is what you get, an immature, narcissistic, power mad lunatic at the beck and call of the Deep State and its powerful Zionist lobby backing.

US politics is a joke, it's fascinating to watch an empire in decline. Unfortunately the usual result is war and more wars. You can see the US failures in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen! Somalia, and tomorrow in Iran and North Korea.

So much for the US being a bastion of democracy etc. More like a Ruling elite mimicking the mafia and a spoilt petulant child.

When the US is finally a failed state I am sure Australian Government vassalage will be recognised and we might cease being a lap dog, but then again that's a faint hope given our current crop of vacuous politicians.

Donald "Fake" Trump has Clinton and coal locked up .

“Extreme global shortages of metallurgical coal have caused prices to increase 250% since earlier in the year [2016],” Corsa CEO George Dethlefsen said . Hence the decision to develop the new Acosta mine, which is expected to create as many as 100 jobs.
“The opening of the Acosta mine has nothing to do with U.S. federal policy,” wrote Trevor Houser, a partner with the economic research company Rhodium Group. “. Chinese and Australian mining supply cuts have pushed up the price of metallurgical coal around the world, making US production economical.”
