Trump is going to continue to do exactly what he's done the last 18+ months
Belittle anyone who disagrees with him, compliment Putin, demean women and the disabled, insult Mexicans and Muslims, and threaten to imprison a political opponent? I hope not.

Misquoting...just like everyone has been doing for 18+ months and the man still prevails.
Say what you all will...Trump is going to continue to do exactly what he's done the last 18+ months - prove everyone wrong.
He can do it. We can do it. It's time for a change and The Don will make that happen.
I'm not really fussed who is the prez at any time but I do listen to talkback radio here in Oz and over the last year plenty of Aussies have been talking about it, so my take:
Trump will be great for the US economy as he is a good businessman. He is the one to get your farming and manufacturing back from the shit - both industries are shit over here as well - and he will have the economic brain to do it IMO. clinton would'vew just taken things steady steady and nothing would've changed from Obama(personally I'm glad he is gone - nothing against him as a bloke, he seems ok but the novelty of him wore off very quickly and he spouted the same nothingness. And using your wholesome wife and kids was annoying too lol).
Trump's weirdness and shit? Showmanship and advertising in my book. Do you really think the CIA or whoever secretly runs the govt will allow trump to start WW3 as the idiot media reckon? GTFO!! I have been embarassed to see the crap about him yesty by some of my friends on Facebook - its the end of the world, blah blah.
He will change the US for the better hopefully and that will have a good knock on effect for other countries economy.
And no matter how much of 'freak' people might think he is, just Google Kevin Rudd, Tony Abbott and Julia Gillard to see the recent freaks that us Aussies have had as prime Minister lately!!!
Misquoting the Donald when he's on video and audio? Sorry, I don't live in rural Alabama, so that won't work on me.
Call it what you will, but things are taken out of context.
Things are shown that don't tell the whole story.
Get over it, peeps. Trump is cool because he's a normal person who doesn't act like a fucking robot. He says what he wants to say,m when he wants to. When he's upset, it shows.
Just give the guy a chance, and you'll most likely be very surprised how well things start going.

I will absolutely give him a chance because I have no choice. He's the President-elect, and it is what it is. But there's nothing normal or common about Trump. I agree that when he's upset it shows - a quality that's best demonstrated in private, not public IMO. Anyway, at least the late night TV will be more entertaining. So there's that.
Hey, you want to reject The Man and replace the system - go right ahead... but you better have a good fucking system to replace it with... not some wildcard ticking time-bomb who has no previous political experience, no concept of foreign policy, and is just flat out - out of his depth. This is a man with the full support of every racist white group in America, a building history of sex scandals, and arguably the greediest fucking human being on the planet.
No one said anything about replacing the system. We're talking about replacing the party that has utterly corrupted the system, and in particular the mega machine called the Clintons. Did you see the Bushes sell the White House and political influence like the Clintons? Did they build an empire based on political influence?
I am no defender of Trump. He's an idiot.
But Trump is a wave, a phenomena. The Clintons and the corrupt cadre around them have been in power for over a generation. It has to be stopped.
People are tired of elitist progressives telling them what they're supposed to think, how they're supposed to live. Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania...blue states that have had enough. Working people, with experience in the REAL FREAKING WORLD, are not tolerating this stuff anymore.
This election result has made me worried about my friends who are minorities, and those who are female, but most of all my LGBT friends, because if Trump is impeached, which I see as quite likely, Pence becomes president, and he is extremely anti-LGBT, and with a Republican Senate, he can get away with a lot. I am extremely worried as to what will happen over the next 4 years.
Trump has 75 pending lawsuits against him, including sexual assault against a minor (due to be heard in December) and fraud. I have no idea if a President Elect is immune from prosecution, can anyone enlighten me on this? Will he have to get impeached first or something?
Regardless, he also has a history of broken businesses behind him and no experience of politics. No-one in their right-mind would allow such a person to date their daughter, never mind elect him into the highest political position on the planet.
However, he represents a force of change. Just like in the UK with Brexit, we cut off our nose to spite our own face and went with the devil. We did so, simply because we (when I say we, I mean we as a nation, I voted to remain) were fed up of political corruption, political lies and political incompetence.
The average people in the western world are suffering because of big businesses screwing them over, in particular the banks cocking it all up in 2008 and causing the recession. Governments used our tax money to bail them out and none of the mega-rich who caused the crises were prosecuted.
Since then austerity measures have cut government spending (unless they borrow heavily, something which Trump will have to do if he's going to deliver on his promises of huge growth - and who do they borrow from...yup, that's right...China) so the average person suffers while the rich have got off free.
But who has the media and the right-wing politicians blamed for all our problems? Immigrants, the European Union, single parents, disabled, homosexuals etc. And the people have lapped it all up. As usual the middle class and the poor start blaming each other, it's a trick the rich have used for centuries.
Trump is indeed a force for change. I don't know how an elite billionaire who was handed his first fortune qualifies himself as a man of the people but people believe he is. Whether he will be a force for good change for America and the rest of the world or bad, time will tell. However, with him in charge and the Senate now predominately Republican, he has no-one to blame if things go wrong.
He will try though, trust me. Watch out for this, watch out for him trying to lay blame on terrorists, immigrants etc. Once the debt ceiling crashes through the roof or he's hit with a major crises, watch him lash out and then attempt to lay blame when there's no-one left to blame. He can't just declare America bankrupt and use charities to get rid of bad debt like he did with his own businesses. He's in charge now, the buck stops with him and he should be made accountable.
Trump has been claiming for weeks the election is rigged. I wonder if he still believes that? It's interesting to note Clinton won the popular vote. So more Americans voted for Clinton than Trump. The idea of the Electoral College seems simply insane to me and goes against the very idea of 'every vote counts' when clearly it doesn't.
Good luck everyone, the next few years are going to be intense. As the old Chinese curse goes, we live in interesting times.

It's a civil suit. Not contributing to the debate, but the sexual assault case is a civil suit and doesn't necessarily (I think?) involve an impeachment.
For the record I'm insanely left-wing and Donald Trump is abhorrent as a form of life, let alone a head of state
Hey, as a foreigner I won't link to your deep political debates about the happenings.
I only describe you the one point when I personally, from the outside, was profoundly convinced that he's going to be elected.
After the very first TV debate, on the podium, he stood a bit behind her, close beside her. Then he tapped her back, quite soft, three or four times. It was a little picture, if intentionally or unintentionally produced of him, which showed the psychological situation between them and his personal conviction. I was afraid the media didn't focus on all this body language and impression and let her dream she's dominating him on all areas. The parts when they didn't speak, he completely took her apart, shoveling coal and all that while she had her nose up and that problematic smile.
It was just a trivial thing I noticed quite clearly.
I know a majority reduces everything to his inacceptable statements, rightfully they do so. Still, during the debates, imo, it would've been smarter of those in power to face and respect areas where he was undeniable strong and build up a strategy against it.
