TIGHTCHOKE Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 I find it interesting that the Democrat leaders seem to be admitting that had they backed Berny Sanders instead of Hilary, they would have won! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewulf Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 So Hilliary won more votes, but Trump the electoral college. There would be people in this thread squealing bloody murder if the reverse had happened..: Not really ,it happens all the time ,even here. No good crying about it if thats the system. And for the record no one over there is crying about the system,they just dont like the result. Now if it was done through proportional representation, and then someone says but we need to put it through the senate because we dont like the result. Then there could be an issue...

UKPoacher Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 I find it interesting that the Democrat leaders seem to be admitting that had they backed Berny Sanders instead of Hilary, they would have won! But he's so old he's hardly likely to make to the end of term. He reminds me of Young Mr. Grace on Are You Being Served? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flynny Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) I dont think for one minute people voted for Brexit to shove it up the Government. The populace are just sick to the back teeth of mass imigration and not being able to make our own choices on who can and cant come here. If this country felt like some are saying they would have voted UKIP. I hope Trump wins just to see how he does,lets see him make good on some of his promises. Think he will be like other politicians and back peddle or will he actually carry them through? Thinking to myself that the Cities and Towns of the UK that voted to stay in the EU were coincidentally the ones with the highest percentage of immigrants I had a look at the data for immigration in the USA and guess what ? almost identical. So worldwide are the people that developed the civilised world as we now know it getting a little fed up with the whinging lefties and less developed wanting some of our cake. Oh what is that I hear but we only want a better life and some of your wealth, well it is becoming quite possible that they might just have to go home and earn their own. Correct gents on both counts, The decent working folk have had enough, I can't get my head around that if you /we want to go to another country you have to abide by there laws , have a job to support yourself etc, But anyone can come to The uk and not contribute at all, but just expect and take, take , take, It beggars beleif Flynny Edited November 10, 2016 by flynny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one hand the conservative right want to control it and curtail what they believe to be excessive numbers,benefit migrants and erosion of social cohesion. For this they are called xenophobes,racists,nazis and uneducated. The Liberal left want open borders,uncontrolled immigration,higher taxes to pay for more benefits and forced diversity. For this they are called,err.. communists ? As in this country ,it seems to me that the media is heavily biased/controlled by the Liberal state of mind,this was very evident when watching ITV and BBC news reports in the run up, and post election. There was a report in the US of a racist attack on a Muslim girl the day after the election. Heavily reported,the blame was put squarely on Trump winning. Basically, she was robbed of her car keys ,phone and wallet, thats robbed,like this never happens! The racist element ? One of the attackers was wearing a Trump cap. Now despite this being a non story to start with,I wondered if would just be a vanilla robbery if he was wearing a Clinton cap? Edit -http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/muslim-woman-robbed-hijab-donald-trump-maga-hat-president-supporter-louisana-a7410301.html Sound familiar? Other reports include a gay man being beaten up by Trump supporters,same MO ,the cap gave their homophobic intentions away. Edit-He now says he doesnt believe they were Trump supporters http://www.advocate.com/election/2016/11/10/gay-man-brutally-attacked-trump-supporters-election-night Two transexuals commit suicide because they cant face the 'uncertainty' of life under Trump. So as you can see,according to the media,the mans already a walking disaster area . Edited November 11, 2016 by Rewulf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
