Donald Trump US election win a revolt against Left’s arrogance
news.com.au ^ | 9th November 2016 | Andrew Bolt

DONALD Trump’s win is the biggest “f--- you” to all his enemies — the media, the politicians and Wall Street. The whole world now — and our own political class — has been given a shock and a warning.

Stop bullying and patronising the silent majority or they will rise in terrible revolt.

The British vote to leave Europe showed the public would no longer be chained. Trump’s victory confirms it.

Even I could not see Trump winning. I could not believe so many voters were so cowed by the violence and the abuse of the Left that the polls, misled by their silence, had Hillary Clinton winning by an average of 46.8 per cent to Trump’s 43.6.

But in the ballot box those voters cut loose and chose as their next president a man with zero political experience and vilified in the media as a sexist, racist, neo-Nazi hothead likely to drop the nuclear bomb.

Maybe he is some of that, but how much did voters loathe the Washington crowd that they’d still rather have Trump, who on the day before the election led crowds in another chant of “Drain the swamp”?

There will be many sanctimonious commentators who will howl that this proves every second American is a cretin.

Clinton herself in a disastrous moment fell for this self-congratulatory fantasy, indulging in exactly the kind of abuse that makes the Left so contemptible to so many voters now, in the US and here.

A haiku:

The left spits on us
But America just said
“I’m not quite dead yet”!

Why do I get the feeling that all the arrogant and abusive Obama Administration minions showing up to testify at the many oversight hearings they are mired in are going to show up with new attitude.

If you read the first comment I say how you should be able to get to it - basically put a sentence from the article into a google news search news.google.com

That will normally get you past the pay wall though it isn't guaranteed.
