First, consolations to those who wanted the other side to win. It was a close run thing really. But you do know they lied to you don't you. The media and their bought & paid for pollsters. The shysters with the big money.

However, most of all I think this new president deserves a big round of applause. He's the guy who wouldn't give up. And isn't that what you want from a leader.
From the start they put him down. They said he'd never run, then they said he'd drop out, then they said there was no chance he'd get nominated and finally they said until five minutes ago that Clinton was a shoe in. 90% of the media tried to put him out of the game, so did the hedge funds & the rest of the big Wall St money, and even a lot of people in his OWN party tried time & time again to bring him down.

Well all those people you believed, they lied to you, but Sprint, Panther, myself and a few other guys told you the truth about what would happen because we saw what the people wanted. And you do want the people to decide these things, no?
So there is - and has been for a year - a new star in the political firmament. More like a black hole really. He sucked them in and chewed them all up one by one, saving the best for last.

So now. . .whose got egg on their faces?

First, Newsweek for their egotistical cover. Madam President indeed! We all know the only kind of Madam she is.

And what about the NY Times, the conscience of the people . . .they think! At the start of counting they had the Clinton woman at 80% chance of winning. By near the end they had her at 5%. How's that for reliable media!

Don't forget that doyen of fair play, NBC. As the votes came in they had to be dragged kicking & screaming to the keyboards to chalk them up. They were probably having a meeting to discuss whether they could change the results and get away with it.

But I don't want to end without some special attention for some of our friends here:

Dopey - that would be a toss up between Gandalf and Bojack, I'll go for Gandalf because he has a 1400 year handicap

Mr Funny  - that would be Greg, who gives us fun and who we hope does not leave the building.

Sleazy - well that would have to be North by North, who I will gladly show the the way to the exit

Grumpy - no doubt about that, Redneck for sure - he must be extra grumpy tonight.

Streetwise Girl - Marla, she won't be disappointed because they're all losers to her

PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP . . . .sounds just dandy don't it?

And now I'll go and explain to my grandson how it's a lie that President Trump will start WW3.

And remember, winners are grinners.  Tha-That's all folks.

none of you "winners" will be grinning for long .. the rot will set in soon and not just for Americans..you simply don't understand why we didn't want Trump to win..you have no idea at all. But you will see very soon.

Such a foolish post.

Don't forget Karnal, Bogie. I could not possibly imagine this - I still can't. A reality TV star and sleaze as the most powerful man in the world.

Reality TV? The world is now a cartoon.

I picked up some BHP puts yesterday and they did bloody well, wish I got more, but thanks Donald!!!

Perhaps you can understand why I don't like so called feminists like Hillary taking money from the Saudis and Qatar who don't respect womens rights.

Why is the USA involved with the Saudi attacks on the Yemeni Shia, I guess Hillary has to give her Saudi masters value for the millions they bought her with.

But let me assure you, Trump is going to be the best middle of the road president since maybe Eisenhower. He won't be good for raving loonies and freak shows that surrounded the other camp, but he will be for middle America where most of the people want to be.

For all who wanted Trump to win, be gracious in victory.

And now I'll go and explain to my grandson how it's a lie that President Trump will start WW3. And remember, winners are grinners.  Tha-That's all folks.

Well, I've been writing congratulatory messages all night, but I'll leave this perfunctory note.

Congratulations to America.

For my part, I've been mired` in consultancy, requisitions and G-Code; these past few months being rather hectic with some old colleagues who were themselves assigned to a start-up/sub-division which might be spun off in the future, who knows.

What are they up to?

Essentially, ganged CNCs and the necessity of retooling for their parent company, their contractors, sub-contractors, and possibly even some of their competitors.  I think I've mentioned before that many outfits in the US were hedging bets for just this eventuality.  Things were already being set in motion.  We don't have a green board yet.  We don't have a completely free hand to make any "new" hires` - the shackles are still on with the regulatory regime still unchanged and Obama still in office.  But even there the feeling we're getting is that everyone from OSHA to the EPA are going to be looking over their shoulders, knowing the new boss might not take kindly to inspectors and certifications being withheld using regulatory and extra-regulatory means.  There are some professional people in the regulatory agencies, but these days there are far too many busybodies who try to justify the fact that they do useless jobs like require environmental impact studies on bird populations for turbine testing.

So the outlook has become "uncertain" - an improvement because before it was "impossible".  So we can at least offer hours to people within normal channels. 

And if the economic outlook really changes, if the Trump phenomenon is even halfway successful, our outfit won't be the only one to benefit.  There's an American boom in the works if things fall right.

For my Aussie associates, I've already noted that Trump is not necessarily good for them.  If they choose to tie their fate to China, it's their destiny to choose. I've advised before how China's fate is tied to the US in ways that are simply not mutually vital to the US.

For the Aussies here, choose well.  I very much doubt you appreciate your geo-strategic situation any better than Americans, but as with any destiny, it's your responsibility whether you understand it or not.

For Americans of the productive stripe, there's a lot of work to be done, for sure.  The anti-Americans in our country and their foreign collaborators will be throwing wrenches into our works.

This was one victory, hopefully the first of many more to come.

Greg, I don't hold you to that promise.

trump just pulled off an incredible victory. no hyperbole, but every political analyst, pollster and shyster "expert" in the field is probably shaking in their boots right now wondering whether their exorbitant salaries will be justifiable to anybody come next morning. the very foundation for the methodology of modern polling is going to be called into question. this election has implications for the empiricism of the social sciences itself.

The first public office he's ever elected to is arguably the most prestigious/important one in the world.

OK, egg on my face, I admit I totally misread this. Well done Boges, you never stopped believing - you also predicted the brexit if I'm not mistaken. Kudos to you.

Still its not all bad. There was always going to be a bright side to seeing Hillary lose, plus seeing the holier-than-thou pretend liberal establishment fan club eating humble pie. Its also good to see the political-insider boat rock - even if its by a wall-ST insider.

IMHO most of the polls were intentionally skewed in an effort to hoodwink the voting public, but still almost all of them were within the 'margin of error', which is basically saying the election is a toss-up, & can go either way from the published number.

Nobody would have believed a week ago that not only did Trump get the Hispanic vote (28% of Hispanics voted for Trump....that's a fact), he got a higher percentage of Hispanics voting for him than did Mitt Romney 4 years ago.

I myself said I didn't believe that Black voters would show up in this election, & I was spot on.....they stayed home in large numbers because they weren't voting for the first Black President in History this time around, & of those that voted, 8% voted for Donald Trump......way more that anyone predicted.

Nothing has changed.

The thing is done. The election is over and the Americans, and to an extent the rest of the world must live with the result. I though Trumps speech was reasonable, with the sort of things one would expect from any winning candidate.  Meanwhile  Mrs Clinton  has not deigned to address the masses as yet.   ::)

I locked them because FD abrogated responsibility for them by tossing the crap into my neck of the woods, making me responsible for the abuse.  Nah.  It takes me way too much time to get abusing Rule breakers dealt with.  Locking the incoming is an easier option for me.  If anyone has a complaint about being abused in those Threads, take it to FD.  I wash my hands of it.

Reminding Gregg of his commitment is not abuse.  Calling him out as devious, dishonest and a liar is just a statement of fact testified to by his continuing presence.

Now.....just to take that very valid point up.  How come you are silent about a broken commitment made by a GMod?  Is that not a principle too, or are you taking sides?

Why is the USA involved with the Saudi attacks on the Yemeni Shia, I guess Hillary has to give her Saudi masters value for the millions they bought her with. You have the hypocrisy to talk about women's rights and then support Trump???? There is a reason Trump supporters were called 'deplorables'. It wasnt wrong.

bogarde73 wrote on Nov 9th, 2016 at 4:54pm: First, consolations to those who wanted the other side to win. It was a close run thing really. But you do know they lied to you don't you. The media and their bought & paid for pollsters. The shysters with the big money. However, most of all I think this new president deserves a big round of applause. He's the guy who wouldn't give up. And isn't that what you want from a leader. From the start they put him down. They said he'd never run, then they said he'd drop out, then they said there was no chance he'd get nominated and finally they said until five minutes ago that Clinton was a shoe in. 90% of the media tried to put him out of the game, so did the hedge funds & the rest of the big Wall St money, and even a lot of people in his OWN party tried time & time again to bring him down. Well all those people you believed, they lied to you, but Sprint, Panther, myself and a few other guys told you the truth about what would happen because we saw what the people wanted. And you do want the people to decide these things, no? So there is - and has been for a year - a new star in the political firmament. More like a black hole really. He sucked them in and chewed them all up one by one, saving the best for last. So now. . .whose got egg on their faces? First, Newsweek for their egotistical cover. Madam President indeed! We all know the only kind of Madam she is. And what about the NY Times, the conscience of the people . . .they think! At the start of counting they had the Clinton woman at 80% chance of winning. By near the end they had her at 5%. How's that for reliable media! Don't forget that doyen of fair play, NBC. As the votes came in they had to be dragged kicking & screaming to the keyboards to chalk them up. They were probably having a meeting to discuss whether they could change the results and get away with it. But I don't want to end without some special attention for some of our friends here: Dopey - that would be a toss up between Gandalf and Bojack, I'll go for Gandalf because he has a 1400 year handicap Mr Funny  - that would be Greg, who gives us fun and who we hope does not leave the building. Sleazy - well that would have to be North by North, who I will gladly show the the way to the exit Grumpy - no doubt about that, Redneck for sure - he must be extra grumpy tonight. Streetwise Girl - Marla, she won't be disappointed because they're all losers to her PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP . . . .sounds just dandy don't it? And now I'll go and explain to my grandson how it's a lie that President Trump will start WW3. And remember, winners are grinners.  Tha-That's all folks. Well, I've been writing congratulatory messages all night, but I'll leave this perfunctory note. Congratulations to America. For my part, I've been mired` in consultancy, requisitions and G-Code; these past few months being rather hectic with some old colleagues who were themselves assigned to a start-up/sub-division which might be spun off in the future, who knows. What are they up to? Essentially, ganged CNCs and the necessity of retooling for their parent company, their contractors, sub-contractors, and possibly even some of their competitors.  I think I've mentioned before that many outfits in the US were hedging bets for just this eventuality.  Things were already being set in motion.  We don't have a green board yet.  We don't have a completely free hand to make any "new" hires` - the shackles are still on with the regulatory regime still unchanged and Obama still in office.  But even there the feeling we're getting is that everyone from OSHA to the EPA are going to be looking over their shoulders, knowing the new boss might not take kindly to inspectors and certifications being withheld using regulatory and extra-regulatory means.  There are some professional people in the regulatory agencies, but these days there are far too many busybodies who try to justify the fact that they do useless jobs like require environmental impact studies on bird populations for turbine testing. So the outlook has become "uncertain" - an improvement because before it was "impossible".  So we can at least offer hours to people within normal channels.  And if the economic outlook really changes, if the Trump phenomenon is even halfway successful, our outfit won't be the only one to benefit.  There's an American boom in the works if things fall right. For my Aussie associates, I've already noted that Trump is not necessarily good for them.  If they choose to tie their fate to China, it's their destiny to choose. I've advised before how China's fate is tied to the US in ways that are simply not mutually vital to the US. For the Aussies here, choose well.  I very much doubt you appreciate your geo-strategic situation any better than Americans, but as with any destiny, it's your responsibility whether you understand it or not. For Americans of the productive stripe, there's a lot of work to be done, for sure.  The anti-Americans in our country and their foreign collaborators will be throwing wrenches into our works. This was one victory, hopefully the first of many more to come.

Very interesting read.

The termites haven't gone away, they have nests all over the place and they will be back. But the people still have control of the means of destruction and must keep it in their hands.

Greg, isn't it good to see you have so many friends. There's Sprint & me for a start.
Friends can disagree and shout & swear at each other but get over it. That's what friends do. And they don't hold each other to rash promises.

Can't wait for mothra to appear today and reassure Agnes again.
"Don't worry" she said "he's only winning what he's supposed to"

I think that was the last laugh I had last night. The rest I freely admit was tears of joy.

Don't think solely on the basis of the 8 year flip from Dem or Rep it was likely to happen?

And I totally agree about the fake Liberals. Better to have a total outlier than just more of the same old crap.

not a sore loser ... sure, I didn't expect trump to win, then again, most didn't ..  apart from being a spectator I really don't care that much for US politics. This is the first time I've ever paid attention to their campaign and that was only because of trumps entertainment value

it is a change to see lefties being good losers.. sorry gandy but it is true.. maybe because it isnt home.. thats the difference...

anyway like him or not hes an unknown so I think its fair to give him a go and see what happens.... it will be interesting to see how all those Republicans that voted against him react after he is sworn in....he had almost as many enemies on his own side.. ::)

That's another one of your self-serving hypotheticals that is immaterial to me because, as I told you earlier, this is Australia, & I'm sure that in America, the Americans who hired him will hold his feet to the fire.

I'm sure he won't need much of a reminder that laws need to be enforced to reduce crime, the wall needs building along the Southern Border of the United States of America.....one with big doors to let those that qualify in, but keep those unwanted criminals out. Muslims from the Middle East will need to be completely vetted before being considered for entry, & illegal aliens, those living in America illegally, need to be tracked down, taken into custody, & then permanently deported....or at best be put at the back of the line for legal entry.

Anyone, anywhere in the World that has a problem with that, take it up with their 'Higher Power'... or better said,

I couldn't care what name they go by.....If they are illegally in America, whoever TF they are, or illegally here in Australia for that matter.....yes, they need to be rounded up & deported....no exceptions.....full stop.

Nobody, but nobody has the right to reside in a sovereign country without legal permission to do so, or without being invited by those in authority, with the authority from the people to authorize these people to do so.

In America, the American People own America, the American Government doesn't own America.....as here the Australian People own Australia, the Australian government does not own Australia. Governments are employees of the People that elect them.....nothing more. They serve at the Peoples pleasure;)

The 'Polish Brigade' were the illegal immigrants Trump used on his real estate projects.

The Polish employees were working 12-hour shifts seven days a week for $4 to $5 an hour, with no overtime payments.

Some workers were never paid at all.
