"Zero Hedge's content is conspiratorial, anti-establishment, and economically pessimistic,[3] and has been criticized for presenting extreme and sometimes pro-Russian views.[1][4][5]" - wiki

I prefer rationalwiki's take:

"Zero Hedge is a bat**** insane Austrian school finance blog run by two pseudonymous founders who post articles under the name "Tyler Durden," after the character from Fight Club. It has accurately predicted 200 of the last 2 recessions.[citation NOT needed] "

Regardless of the views of irrelevant muppets about zerohedge's veracity, it doesn't change the fact that it does indeed appear to be a 4chan troll.

I trust CNN and it's siblings as much as I trust these two:



Irrespective of Trump's (in)competence or otherwise, CNN and every single other mainstream media outlet has presented opinion as news regarding the entire US election, and citations 1, 3, 4 and 5 are just that, opinion. I have never seen a candidate for the highest office in any country be so thoroughly vilified and poo-pooed as Trump has experienced at the hands of CNN et al. The character assassination experienced was unprecedented and completely unjustified.

When one considers the ownership of these "news" organisations, it should become clear that what they present is as far removed from news as it can be.

Maybe CNN will start one, they've failed miserably at everything else - even a broken clock is right twice a day.

And there doesn't seem to much of a deterrence.

It would be an old-school dodgy bookie that would be brave enough to be taking such bets at the moment.

Have a great laugh with Trumpy and FAKE NEWS....

Same guy who spread the birther stuff and all the other garbage is now crying about people "making up" stories about him.

Get's funnier and funnier....

It's gonna get even better. I wake up in the morning and bounce out of bed to read the latest instalment of what Comrade Trumpy is up to now. You couldn't make this stuff up.

CEO of Lockheed paid a visit to the Trump Tower, the deal should be finalised soon. Saving more money and creating more jobs, and strengthening the Military as he promised throughout his entire campaign.

G'day , Was talking to my good friend in Baltimore MD , last night as usual.. I asked him if he'd be watching the Inauguration ceremony next Friday..
You can't put swear words here .. Louis doesn't swear much anyway but the reply had go forth and multiply , human body waste etc in abundance.The short answer was "No I'd rather eat **** ".
He is upset and angry by the prospect of this man being his President..
He said to me that the Russia issues scare him but not as much as Trump's denial of the stuff that's claimed that went on during the election and his carry on with his press conferences..
Cheers Rod..

Your leftard friend must think anybody whose political persuasion is to the right of them must be a fascist. It will be fun to watch the inauguration as there will be 'fireworks'.

If he's an idiot he has an awful lot of similar US citizens who are the same..

I obviously don't live there but in my humble outsiders opinion Trump may well prove to be the most polarising President for a very long time.
I hope for everyone's sake , especially his doubters he ends up proving them wrong.. That would be good for all of us..Cheers Rod...

I think the way President Trump will operate, he is either going to be:

The best President the USA has ever elected.

Or

Adolf Hitler MKII

You will have to do the same Generalissimo Franco, to convince the common dirt eater..., I mean proletariat, that they all have a right to your opinion. You will be worshipped near and far because the thinking has been done for them and they don't need to worry themselves about such mundane stuff.

Now, about that Head of Security position...

Like any good Government, all my right hand men will be paid bulk spondoolies and in return have to do close to nothing, maybe just the odd Q&A appearance and to defend bogus travel expense claims (just no prostitutes on credit cards, that one is a bit too hard to defend)

You pick your position, you're in the right hand man list

But I do like what he says, just needs less 'reality TV emotion' for the camera

I have come to the conclusion in recent times that extreme left wing ideology is a form of mental illness, just like Schitsofrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Asbergers Syndrome etc.

Their symptoms seem to be getting worse, and in all places, America. Europe is terminal.

There can not be any treatment for this disorder if we do not recognize it as such.

The Muslims have achieved their wildest dreams in recent years on the back of using these leftist mentally ill western ( European ) politicians to achieve their goals.

They knew the weakness of the West and who to tie their ambitions to. Muslims are not stupid, they have 1,500 years start on us for dealing in subterfuge.

The irony of all of this is that when the Muslims fully take over their first European country, Leftist would be looked on as degenerates by them, and would be the first to have their heads hacked off.

Trump is not only the only hope America has, he maybe the only hope the world has.
