Oh, what a beautiful mornin',
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I got a beautiful feelin'
Ev'erything's goin' our way.

Brexit, done.
Trump, done.
Pauline, done, but with more to come.
Merkel, out next.

Then Turnbull & the global warming fraud to go.

Oh what a beautiful morning

It is very wrong of us to gloat but perhaps just this once!

Well guys there is certainly part of me that if feeling a little chuffed.

Many may have held their noses while doing it but the Yanks have delivered a victory for the citizen over the customer.

Here in Australia we have the ruling elites hell bent on creating our own manufacturing rust belts, signing us up for the TTP and free trade deals with China of all places, and handing out over a million 457 visas. All the while we have a leader who holds Caymen Island bank accounts and was a former merchant banker telling us how good the changes will be for the economy. Note not for the people but the 'economy'.

We can only hope that our major parties get the message without the populace having to take the country to the edge with a Trump clone.

My hope is the profits of the big corporations are not at the forefront of our decision making any longer. That globalisation and trickle down economics are given the boot.

The only tragedy is that it has fallen to an egomaniac like Trump to 'drain the swamp'. If he hadn't been screwed by the DNC we may well have had a Sanders doing it instead. Beggars can't be choosers.

hopefully the regressives will all move to Canada or Saudi Arabia. A number of the celebrities threatened to leave if Trump won but I suspect like Hilary they could not lie straight in bed.

Hi Steele,

I'm slowly getting over the impulse to slash my wrists, but that might come back around January 20.

Your comment about Drumpf draining the swamp: yes, Clinton was far more representative of that swamp, the lobbying, wheeling and dealing, scratching each others' backs, etc., but also the padding of public service positions in a bloated bureaucracy. Members of that vast class would have overwhelmingly voted for Clinton. They are probably commiserating over their kale smoothies and no-fat goat-cheese flat whites, all along the Beltway.

Hmmmm, I wonder which class they would correspond to in Australia, and who THEY would vote for, against the majority ?

Don't worry Joe.
The revolution is coming
faster than we think.
