Its pretty much official now.

Nothing left to say really. I think everyone will be feeling 'winded'. All the heads of states are sending good intentioned messages and all trying to appear encouraging, but at the same time probably having a major panic behind closed doors. This could really scupper EU plans for so many reasons.

Times of change , maybe a good thing ?

Watching the news I find it funny how now that trump has won that so call celebrity are saying they will leave the us, I'm shouting at the TV "GROW UP" it like being back at school and that kid who is getting beat at football picks the ball up and walks off

Lets see if he keeps his promise of putting Clinton behind bars---oh that was just "locker talk"
Still hope for Boris Johnson

He didn't promise that.
He promised to appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate her (and the outcome of that would not be up to him).
Words get twisted.

That's part of what he said. He also said that's where she would be (jail)if he were in charge of the law in the country.
Words do get twisted I agree.

Promises and fair words mean nothing, lets see how the big talk progresses, his cosying up to Putin has done him no favours we all know how anti communist the United States are, and it looks like we could be on our own if tensions with Russia rise in Europe.

I see Farage is back on the scene now after the victory, he couldn't get away quick enough when the sex allegations were made.

I think the bigger worry is Trump's allegiance to Israel. He stated that his administration would recognise Jerusalem as one undivided capitol in the State of Israel.

Now that IS dangerous and very antagonistic to the Palestinians !

They all tend to say some pro israel thing because of the large number of dual us israeli passport holders and also many in the bible belt have zionist christian beliefs.imo just a vote grabbing statement. Saying that i see he has jewish connections in his family and one of his kids converted to judaism

Easy for him to get round the 'imprisoning' Clinton stuff. Hes already made an announcement he wants unity for both sides etc and a coming together no matter what your feelings are etc, so he could just make out the 'good of the country' isnt served best now by continuing chasing Clinton , he needs 'to get on'. That would be the smart thing to do in my opinion anyway , otherwise he will just rankle her supporters even more and alienate people who just may otherwise 'believe' him and give him a chance to do what he can for America.

Agree entirely over the worries for Palestine.

if only we had someone like him here with a set of balls, but the Illuminati has
probably already sat him down and said this is how its going to go,you are just
are puppet,and they let him win so it looks like you had a choice,like everything
its all a con

So true, Joe.


There's a new programme on BBC in the New year ;

Apprentice President.

They have removed from his website the bit about banning all muslims. now its those with terrorist links.. pretty much as it is already.

doesn't officially become president till January. hes gonna be more entertaining than Obama.

i don't think he will live to be president

There's a few thoughts of that already on Wiki. Venice and her Big Banana Skin for example !

I don't think he has fully realised just what he is about to become and have a feeling that the full impact might just be beginning to dawn on him and his wife. It's all very well being a bully and battling your way to the top but it's an unknown quantity to him, totally different to what he has done before, needing a huge regard for diplomacy, of which, he appears to have nil.

He seemed very humbled in his meeting with Obama, (which is not Trump) and Obama I thought, had a look of concern ,he certainly didn't appear to be relaxed as he is with others. All the laughs and the glittering smiles seem to be getting sucked out of America right now.

Imagine what it must be like handing your Presidency over to that Buffoon.
