Politics is a dirty word

  Australian media coverage of the US Presidential election, particularly on television, has been outrageous. Why do they think we are interested in which elderly white male wins a tussle in a depraved version of democracy? It makes no difference to usa who is a in the White House. If Trump is defeated, it may herald an improvement in relations with China, which could benefit Australia. The growing cold war with Russia could also warm up especially as rumours are circulating the Vladimir Putin may step down as he is believed to be in the early stages of Parkinsons disease.

The future of US President Donald Trump is not very clear. Pundits are not sure if impeachment is the most likely scenario, or if assasination will be his lot. Who is the assassain most likely to be? The CIA is a front runner, followed by North Korea and former KGB operatives as vwell as Iranians, Syrians and Afghanis who suffered US tyranny. There could be any number of disgruntled US citizens and military personnel who suddenly realise that their living standards are falling and they have been dumped on the economic scrap heap.
