Thanks, Rufus. I never realised how much fun writing really is.

I am in the US, the option is sooo bad, I don't feel like I have s choice but to vote Libertarian

claig · 03/11/2016 18:05

'Town crier for sure'

For whom the bell tolls. For the elite.

user1471451684, what State are you in? I don't mean how many drinks have you had.

claig · 03/11/2016 18:12

WinchesterWoman, great stuff.

We need to get that to Trump straightaway. If he can slip a "Crooked Hillary" into it, that could seal the deal. Time is running out. There are only 5 days left.

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 18:12

Claig I am in NH you?

claig · 03/11/2016 18:20

user1471451684, I'm in England, I'm not American. I am in the County of Essex, just outside London.

New Hampshire is a key state that Trump might need. A vote for Johnson is OK, but I would say that a vote for Trump would be better.

claig · 03/11/2016 18:21

user1471451684, what is the mood on the ground there? Do people think Trump has a chance? Is there a secret Shy Trump vote that is enormous?

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 18:27

Certainly in the North East Trump I think has a larger following than it seems, there are a lot if silent supporters out there. There is a lot of distrust for Hillary. However there is also a large number who dislike both options, so I think The libertarians will get a lot of votes

claig · 03/11/2016 18:31

Thanks, that's interesting. I didn't realise the Libertarian Party was so strong, although both Trump and Hillary have high disapproval ratings.

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 18:37

It's nowhere near as strong as the two main parties but I think that people will use it as a protest vote option

claig · 03/11/2016 18:41

'people will use it as a protest vote option'

Yes. We had the UKIP party that we used as a protest vote here.

The thing about Trump is that he has basically taken over the Republican Party and dislodged most of the Establishment servants. Trump is a bit like our UKIP protest.

claig · 03/11/2016 18:46

I don't know if you have heard of UKIP's former leader, Nigel Farage. He is good, but nowhere near as good as Trump.

Here he is giving the elites and the Establishment hell at a Trump rally in Mississippi. It is a good speech. Trump calls himself Mr Brexit.

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 18:46

Yes I guess he is in a way. It will be very interesting to see what happens. There are state votes going on too around here at the same time, some of questions that they are asking are actually causing more debate than the presidential campaign

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 18:55

Ha interesting video, I have heard of him

claig · 03/11/2016 18:57

Yes, you've got politically correct Republican Kelly Ayotte in NH I think.

I think she has refused to endorse Trump.

claig · 03/11/2016 19:01

'I have heard of him'

Yes, he is great. I listen to the US talkshows and the Republican ones love Farage. He is treated as a hero in Republican circles, far more than any of our Establishment Conservative MPs who are all Establishment nonentities, whereas in England the Establishment media and the Oxbridge teams have turned the name Farage into a dirty word.

But there is a worldwide people's revolution going on and try as they might, the elites can't stop it. If Trump wins, it is over for the whole lot of them worldwide. That is why it is such a big thing, more important than our own elections even.

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 19:03

Yes you are right, there would potentially be a domino effect that would send shockwaves across the political classes around the globe....the Arab spring is spreading

claig · 03/11/2016 19:08

Yes, Brexit shocked the world. No one believed the people could ever beat the Establishment and we did. But a Trump victory will be a shockwave that will liberate the whole world from the useless elites who have messed everything up while enriching themselves off the backs of the people worldwide.

user1471451684 · 03/11/2016 19:13

It would certainly do that, I think it could also usher in a period of piece where USA Russia and China will take a step back from each other.

He has the potential to win I think, However if he does there will be a short period of economic turmoil as the world realizes that the US won't be there to bail them out anymore, the same way as the markets reacted to brexit

claig · 03/11/2016 19:39

'I think it could also usher in a period of piece where USA Russia and China will take a step back from each other. '

Absolutely, it is only the bankers and the One Percent who want war so that they can rob the assets of other countries. Trump will concentrate on rebuilding America and making the airports and bridges and roads and trains as good as those in China. He will bring jobs back and tell the whole world that America is First and the power of America means that everyone will get the message. He will do business deals with China that slash the $500 billion annual deficit. China will have to buy Boeing instead of Airbus and American goods to slash the deficit and they will do it.

The whole world will work together to create business, new railways and roads and the whole world will have to help the American deficit be slashed, and there will be no wars. America and Russia will work together on space projects, peace and civilizations will flourish, together they will end Islamic terrorism and hopefully bring peace to the entire Middle East and make a good deal for Israel too.

Then the whole world can do business and people can prosper and the elites who have ground the people down, who have played divide and conquer to grow wealthy themselves and to stifle the world population's growth will be out of the picture at last.

'there will be a short period of economic turmoil as the world realizes that the US won't be there to bail them out anymore'

Absolutely. America is strong, they will be alright, but there will be losers. The elites will lose as they no longer have support from America and Trump, and I think the Saudis may lose and the EU may lose, but in the end the people of the world will win and will be free of the idiocy of their rulers.
