China’s ‘monkey king’ picks Trump as next US president

SHANGHAI: A Chinese monkey has tipped Donald Trump for the US presidency, a tourism park said, after the creature successfully predicted the winner of football’s European Championship final earlier this year.

Known as Geda — which means knots or goose bumps — is the latest in a series of purportedly psychic animals that have popped up around the world since Paul the Octopus correctly predicted multiple 2010 World Cup matches.

The simian seer, wearing a yellow shirt emblazoned with his title, was given a chance to pick between life-sized cut-outs of Republican Trump and his Democratic challenger Hillary Clinton.

After “deliberate thought” the mystic monkey chose Trump, Shiyanhu Ecological Tourism Park said Thursday in a statement on its website. Without even waiting, he congratulated the cardboard candidate with a kiss on the lips.

The five-year-old simian correctly predicted Portugal would win the 2016 European football championship in July, two days before Cristiano Ronaldo’s side prevailed 1-0, online news portal ifeng.com reported at the time.

The monkey is just creeped out by Hitlery’s faked, overdone expression. Not really fair, but hey I’ll take it.

What about Paul the Octopus who did so well in picking winners during the World Cup of Soccer?

That picture could have only been topped if the monkey started to fling some poo at Hillary Rotten.

In fairness, to a monkey, bared teeth are a sign of aggression, not excitement. The cutout of Hillary shows her making an expression that most primates would interpret as a threat. Had they used one of her smiling with her mouth closed the outcome would have had a chance of being very different.

And yes, I’m aware of the coincidence of that description, and that to many of us here there is a legitimate reason to view Hillary as belligerent.

Only some species (usually the larger ones), and then generally only the females. Males rarely live more than a year.
