Yep, the only holdouts are Bolt and Pickering, they are like those Jap soldiers that hide in the jungle, they don't realise that the war has been lost Grin

What are your right-wing media outlets in Australia? I'm interested to see how they view Trump.

Honky is correct - there simply aren't any.

Any 'Rightwing' press would soon fall foul of the draconian racial vilification laws which operate in this country and the UK.

For all its faults, America is WAY more a genuinely free country becaue of its Amendments that protect free speech and the democratic right not to turn up to polling booths on election day.

We have so-called radio shock-jocks here who are WAY more mild and constrained than the likes of your Rush Limbaugh and the others.

My 'Letters to the Editor' rants used to be butched and editted the balls off in the days before I acquired a keyboard. NO-ONE must be offended by what you write or say.

And then even the most constructive and carefully-worded criticism of another's culture or religion was condemned and censored as 'racism'.

I'm seeing how the world interprets Trump. In such places as Europe he seems to be splitting the geopolitical landscape with many hardliners being for his er..um...policies while others view him as a threat to an already fragile world peace.

Most Australian journals take him as being a character of the American-generated media machine and are not sure what to make of him entirely.

I second that.

It's an incredibly immature Fourth Estate that we have here in Australia. It's like the Three Monkeys, but without any balls at all.

There aren't any. They all copy the exact same stories you would have seen over there - Trump Is Hitler, trump is a disaster, trump means the end of the world etc etc.

The sad thing is, as we can see from the offerings of a few pests on this thread, that many people can't see through it.

Honky is too afraid to define right-wing Cheesy

Stage fright perhaps Shocked

But! We have yet to see who has the last laugh ... Tongue

Gotta love satire.....it slaps the left smack dab in the face, it says Nazis are funny, the KKK is funny, White Supremacy is funny, & most of all the most poorly defined & worst abused words in the English dictionary "RACISM & RACIST" are hilarious!

Leftists have used so them incorrectly & so often for years, in the hopes of somehow gaining what they see as the 'moral high ground' that most Americans probably just ignore them when they are used to define someone/something/some-group.

It's the "Oh no, here we go again" eyes to heaven, shrugging reaction when the Left uses them in their incessant rants.

They've grown quite immune to that form of political mudslinging from the left, whereas most of the rest of the world still shudders at those inferences as if they still actually mean something relevant in the 21^st Century.

For the first time in nearly a month, Donald Trump looks mortal again.

Four states held Republican primaries or caucuses on Saturday, but the GOP frontrunner came away with just two wins that were both quite narrow, in Louisiana and Kentucky. He lost the Maine caucuses — his first defeat in the Northeast — and got blown out in Kansas.

And for the first time, it appeared that most of the anti-Trump voters across the country broke towards the same candidate — Ted Cruz. The Texas senator easily won Kansas and Maine, and finished just a few points behind Trump in both Louisiana and Kentucky.

Cruz's victory in Maine was particularly impressive. Until today, the Texas senator hadn't managed to top 12 percent in any of the three Northeastern states that had voted so far (New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont). This led many analysts to conclude that Cruz's appeal was regionally limited — that he couldn't win in the Northeast. But the Maine outcome complicates this narrative.

Perhaps the most heartening development for Cruz, though, was in Louisiana, where results indicated that voters swung late toward him and away from Trump and Rubio......continued

I was watching CNN yesterday and they mentioned that Rubio was in Puerto Rico. Somebody said that, while the Puerto Ricans can have a say in selecting the nominee, they can't vote in the general election. Why is this so?

Panther and some others here, can only deal in simple concepts, those where there are only two possibilities, black/white, right/wrong, left/right.

Grey and ambiguity do not compute for him, thus the necessity to side with the red-necks of politics. Those who claim that everyone who does not agree with them are from the 'Left'

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad and tragic.
