Having been in the USA many times, it doesn't surprise me the sheeple attitude of the masses, not at all unlike those who walk amongst us who, by and large, have an illogical bond to our political parties.
But there is hope:

Yeh, with Trump you know exactly what you're dealing with. He's the archetypal white, male, patriarchal, boss-man avatar and it's very easy to know how he's going to act in any situation. That certainty has an appeal, because it's transparent and predictable. It's also powerful, so you know things will get a real shake up. However, under prolonged duress, such archetypes will falter. They either morph into cruel dictators (like the Chinese and Russian leaders) or they start to doubt themselves and wobble and crack. Wobbling and cracking is extremely unlikely, but it can happen. Jeff Kennett wobbled and cracked, then mysteriously re-appeared as an advocate of mental health, claiming he was unaffected by the backlash. I hope for Trump's sake he doesn't get elected.

Serve them right for just floating around minding their own business when they could have evolve and create stuff that will not affect the environment at all.
EEK!
It's tightened a lot.
$1.82/$1.91.
My coffee bet may be in bother.
Sportsbet is no longer offering end of the world odds on a Trump win.
ASX200 down 63.
It's tightened up a lot. Clinton isn't winning as much as she needs to in urban centres. This is going down to the wire.
I thought Clinton was going to easily get this over the line.
Although I talked to some friends in the US who were going to vote Trump because "Singers and actors should shut the f*ck up".
I suppose people are just sick of the establishment over there.
She was supposed to. The actors and singers were just to deflect from Clinton's own unpopularity.
The ABC is probably also turning a little green at the moment.Well there's in upside already. A Trump win makes Sarah Hanson young sick.

I guess people just don't buy the bs anymore.
Nah, they just buy a different brand.
