Wow..That is pretty strong language you have used there.
Did Bolt take the photo?......I don't think so.
My oh my how the truth hurts you lefties.
I know it is so hard for you to accept the facts so, you, in true Socialist fashion revert to character assassination in the Fabian indoctrinated way......You obviously don't know any better.
I do hope you read the comments from readers. ......You will probably say they drink from the same toilet....OMG...you really are something aren't you?
I know he didn't take the photo. Was he there?
Drink up, old bean.
Troll feeding only makes them fatter I've found, then they fart more.
The Andrews Government has lost the plot in Victoria, and hopefully he is the next one to be shipped out.

That troll would have us believe Ward from "Father Knows Best", Steve from "My Three Sons" and John from "Lost in Space" were all fabianista socialist by the yard stick it uses. Apart from being archaic paternalistic remnants of extreme right wing McCarthyism, the fact that they showed care for others is enough to see the real truth they were pinko commo infiltrators tearing at the fabric of US capitalist society.
Charity in thought and deed is another hallmark of anti society.
He's Labor, end of story.
How President Trump could use the White House to enrich himself and his family
Trevor Potter
59 reading now
For the past 40 years, every president has placed his personal investments and assets in a blind trust while in the White House, or has sold everything and held cash equivalents.
President-elect Donald Trump has made it clear that he does not plan to set up such a trust, which would require that his company be run by an outsider who has had no previous business relationship with Trump, and that there
Trump is not required by law to create a blind trust or otherwise divest himself of all business holdings, though many people who will work for him in the government will have to do so. The 1978 Ethics in Government Act exempts the president and vice-president from its conflict of interest provisions, out of constitutional concerns about separation of powers.
So Trump says he plans to continue to personally own the Trump Organisation, a multibillion-dollar company with business interests around the world, but three of his adult children will operate the firm while he's in office. This is a colossal mistake. It will produce conflicts of interest of an unprecedented magnitude, and create the appearance that he and his family are using his office to enrich themselves, even if they don't take advantage of the many opportunities to do so that this situation presents. These conflicts will stain and haunt Trump's presidency, unless he changes course.
...Trevor Potter is the president of the Campaign Legal Centre and a Republican former chairman of the Federal Election Commission.
Off topic....get back to the thread.
:topic
Ott topic. The thread is about Trump not Daniel Andrews.
People, the media, other politicians keep talking of Donald Trump as a trainwreck. An ever cascading litany of outrageous statements, policy proposals, firebrand speeches.
But perhaps its really a train ride with The Trump firmly sitting up front as the Republican preferred candidate despite or because of the "litany of outrageous statements, policy proposals, firebrand speeches."
So where could this train ride take the US and us (the rest of the world) ?
Some background to his body of work and the current response from other politicians

There is also one excellent psychological observation of how well Donald Trump works his audience.

The winning of presidential election is itself a big question as he don't won the popular vote electoral college voted for him ok. that leads to the question why he won?
First, he won because most of the white people supporting him thinks that due to immigration and inflow of aliens they will become a minority in their own country and then they might be neglected with basic rights and freedom as the incoming people don't have the same perception.
Second, he was outspoken about the wall and muslim ban which are not only illogical but impossible to implement.
and if you were to ask what is the strategy behind it and how he is gonna do it? he won't be able to answer it because deep down inside he himself knows that it is impossible.
Now you might be thinking, Now what? He is already elected what he will do to U.S? The answer to that question is: I don't thinks he will be able to change much of the policies because now he is the execution state. The proposed plan requires dedicated resources which are already scarce. As a result he won't be able to make much changes U.S policies.
It's pretty awful, and as much as I dislike Clinton the thought of Trump being President actually scares me. It will have real consequences for Australia.
Donald Trump risks opening up a major diplomatic dispute with China before he has even been inaugurated after speaking on the phone on Friday with Tsai Ying-wen, the president of Taiwan.
The telephone call, confirmed by three people, is believed to be the first between a US president or president-elect and a leader of Taiwan since diplomatic relations between the two were cut in 1979.
Although it is not clear if the Trump transition team intended the conversation to signal a broader change in US policy towards Taiwan, the call is likely to infuriate Beijing which regards the island as a renegade province.
The US has adopted the so-called “One China” policy since 1972 after the Nixon-Mao meetings and in 1978 President Jimmy Carter formally recognised Beijing as the sole government of China, with the US embassy closing in Taipei the year after.
The Trump team did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
“The Chinese leadership will see this as a highly provocative action, of historic proportions,” said Evan Medeiros, former Asia director at the White House national security council.
“Regardless if it was deliberate or accidental, this phone call will fundamentally change China’s perceptions of Trump’s strategic intentions for the negative. With this kind of move, Trump is setting a foundation of enduring mistrust and strategic competition for US-China relations.”
