Trump wins.

Wow.

Absolutely smashed it.

The oddity is that the polls missed this result.
And the reason they missed it is because a lot of people were too embarrassed to say they would vote for Trump.
So... they had some morality issues about admitting they'd vote for him, but no morality issues about actually voting for him.
Society is a facade.

No. The aggregated polls had Trump taking 4 of the 7 swing states and so winning.

One of the states, Wisconsin, was lost because the Arabic/Muslim voters voted for the green candidate rather than Harris. I guess they thought it would make a difference in Israel...

The big thing is though that turnout is not compulsory in the USA.

The turnout for Harris was 5-10% down on the turnout for Biden in 2020. And the female turnout/vote was 5% lower for Harris than it was for Biden.

The randoms the polling company managed to get to respond may well have leaned left or right, but the lefties couldn't be f***** voting.

In short, she was not a strong candidate and she couldn't differentiate herself from Biden (who currently has a 35% satisfaction rating and a 52% dissatisfaction rating)... and she focused too much on reproductive rights and hardly anything on economics or the specter of migration (whether it is the issue it is or not, Trump tapped into the same vein of resentment that Howard and Abbott did in Australia).

Interestingly, just like in America... over 50% of Australians think Australia is headed in the wrong direction under Albo. Dutton for PM worries me a lot more than what is happening in the USA.

And Albo's Legislative Aggenda needs a lot of tidying up,let alone passing it.

Same in WA.

What on Earth are Labor playing at?Tanking the next Elections?

Not going to bother mate.

The Bastards who shot down the plane did it for sport.To Brag about!

And I daresay they would would have done it to someone anyway,US Indulgence or not!

When they deliver those pricks to justice,then I might be interested.

That’s ok, be an ignorant f*** then.

Mate I don't trust the Yanks on the International scale as far as I could kick 'em!

Trouble is,I Trust the Russians much Less!

Or Putin anyway.

If the rest of them woke up,tipped him out of power and just got on with worrying about themselves,rather than resurrecting Old Empire Bullshit,their Country might be better off!

Might,........

[s'dreams]

Actually - the turnout was 12% lower for the entire 2024 election compared to the 2020 election...

Trump actually got less votes this time around than he got in 2020 and 2016.

So Harris must have stunk it up bigtime.

If Putin were to say… go to Cuba and overthrow their government, and install a maniacal regime on the doorstep of the USA, then supply them with weapons and a shitload of cash, I might agree with you.

Not likely,even with the Castro's gone.

Israel and Iran's Governments are in the same Boat.A joint pack of Arseholes,with little respect for Life!And please,anyone crying foul on anti semitism are talking out of their Arse!I am Critical of the Policies of a Government,not illustrating any contempt for the Jewish people in general,even if many are blindly approving of the Widescale Death and Destruction of Women,Children and even Men.

If a Labor Israeli Government or any alternative to Likud was pulling the same shit,the cries of anti semitism to criticism of their actions,would conveniently slide away.Funny that!
