46% of the U.S didn't vote.

It was a record turnout.

This is the relationship to watch out for: The Presidential incumbent and the president elect -

- only one of them knows the truth about the others real role!

Or how much the relationship actually costs the American taxpayer annually! (follow the money)

.

PM Netanyahu Statement on US Election
(Communicated by the Prime Minister’s Media Adviser)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:

“I congratulate Donald Trump on being elected the 45th President of the
United States of America.

President-elect Trump is a true friend of the State of Israel, and I look
forward to working with him to advance security, stability and peace in our
region.

The ironclad bond between the United States and Israel is rooted in shared
values, buttressed by shared interests and driven by a shared destiny.

I am confident that President-elect Trump and I will continue to strengthen
the unique alliance between our two countries and bring it to ever greater
heights.”

Or will he be a man of his word and "Make America Great Again" - instead of making Israel great at America's expense? - Now that will be interesting!

The unfortunant thing is that the people in " power" I use that term very loosely , know that most people cant be arsed , looking into there silly games . AND they are silly such as; Nissan ? Mazda ? WTF do they mean , it ain’t Japanese , نيسان Nīsān, something to do with the april in arabic ,in Hebrew , it means the first month of the year , the vernal spring equinox, Mazda is the same meaning in Persian these people are NUTs , and its in ya face all the time and WE are too stupid to realise it , ( IMHO)

I know , its my bad , but Im curious about all this stuff , for example , ,,, why is the US 10 year treasury note , at an all time low IF not the LOWEST point ever ? The treasury note traditionally being a safe haven for investors and an inverse of the stock market , as in people move their money away from risk into a safer option , the more demand for the bond the lower the yield. its was at at 1.36 52 week low .2 at the moment .... is it only me worried about this . I dont know

So yes , I know , I could ( and I sometimes do expand ) but as you can see, if I was to expand on a lot of these things , I would spend 27 hours a day on KB ..and in a few min I need to go back to work.

So as I said to ocean , if ya have questions , Im more than happy to explain whats going on in me unpissed head ( pissed is another deal all together ? but I cant spare the time to explain every little detail to someone whom is unwilling to at least make an attempt to get on a similar page ,

just to end , Pepsi , have a look at who the Egyptians called pepsi .....

Have you considered they might have just picked names they liked? Or how unlikely it is that they would name the fucking company in such a way to give away all these illuminati motives?

Likewise, perhaps an alltime low, is simply that there always has to be an alltime low at some time?

You're seeing shit that isn't there, were it there, you'd probably be able to actually explain it with even just a smidge of specificity.

So how did they do it the first time around? - War! - Hillary Clinton was always right on track she was an outright open terrorist warmonger!

So OK how is Donald going to make America Great again without the grand old American continuous war program? (Probably in a country near you!)

A week or so ago the Washington Post went back to him and asked if he wanted to change his mind, but no, he "doubled down". And he was right.*

Anne Coulter claimed she was right, but she was just spouting her extreme right wing rhetoric, which is different to predicting an outcome. Sort of like Yokel posting a load of clips ranging from the slightly unhinged to the outright insane. That's not a prediction either.

Mike Hosking, Newstalk ZB's resident bimbo referred this morning to "that saying about interesting times".
Actually it is reputedly Chinese although that is unlikely. "May you live in interesting times". It is supposedly a curse.

Whatever, we do seem to be living in interesting times.

You know, instead of criticising the people that called it , you should criticize the ones that got it wrong.
It's what an intelligent person would do.

There's no such thing as "gender", it's just cultural Marxist fucking nonsense.

Maybe now we can go back to two "genders" ??

And here I was thinking it was mass producing cars like the Model T, building huge train networks and making great products the world wanted to buy.

Hopefully this is the last of the Pensioner Presidents the US gets, as living in the past and thinking you can tell Apple and other US companies manufacturingin China and move the factory to the rust belt is not going to happen, would mean CEO's could not pay themselves obscene salaries, either is the wall of most of the other drivel spouted in the last year. I imagine the Republicans can control Donald better than if Hillary got in.

Another amusing sidelight from an American forum....An Indiana resident apologising for Pense.
I think Pense was the Indiana Governor ? Anyway, he's praying Trump stays healthy as Pense is way worse.
A bible bashing, anti abortion, creationism teaching pure bible belt bigot of the worst kind he says....

Sentiment on some other US bike forums are anyone but Hilary, as lets face it, Donald is totally unqualified to be President of anything more than an RSA or Bowling Club.
Its no good the millennials moaning on Twitter or Facebook, that's not how politics works, maybe in another 20 years it might just be who gets the most likes.

Do they really think that they can manufacture in the US, with US wage rates and still buy a new 65" TV for a couple of hundred bucks?

There just can't be that much of a reality disconnect can there?
