Watch this video, especially from 2:47 to 4:01 and you might begin to understand what the US public saw in Donald Trump. That and why the US mainstream media is so hated.
Now, where is the British politician with the balls to tell the truth about the equally biased BBC? Where is the British politician to cut the campaigning, biased and dangerous BBC down to size?
The almost always excellent Craig at isthebbcbiased has carried out some analysis of the BBC's post Donald Trump victory coverage. Here's an excerpt:
'That discussion followed a joint interview between Jennifer Lim of Republican Women for Hillary and Hillary supporting Democrat Lisa Osborne Ross of APCO Worldwide Public Affairs - i.e. two anti-Trump guests, one from each of the main parties.
Later came an interview with Frank Luntz, the anti-Trump Republican pollster (who today said that he no longer feels part of Trump's Republican Party) and, later still, an interview with the anti-Trump Jonathan Freedland of the Guardian who pushed the 'racist/sexist' angle on Trump and made the link to the made backward-looking/racist' comments about the Brexit vote.
Finally, with two minutes left, Fiona Bruce introduced us to the "right-wing" Raheem Kassam of Breitbart. That was the programme's 'balance'. He got 36 seconds. (Jonathan Freedland's had previously got 79 seconds).This - sandwiched between The One Showand Watchdog - was the only news special (outside of the main bulletins) that most BBC One viewers would have seen. That it was so utterly skewed against the winner of the US presidential election ought not to do the BBC's reputation much good.'

This tweet from Huffington Post is guaranteed to bring a smile to my face.
Maybe the mainstream media would have done well to read this article from Zero Hedge http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-23/new-podesta-email-exposes-dem-playbook-rigging-polls-through-oversamples before taking the polls at face value.
'Now, for all of you out there who still aren't convinced that the polls are "adjusted", we present to you the following Podesta email, leaked earlier today, that conveniently spells out, in detail, exactly how to "manufacture" the desired data. The email starts out with a request for recommendations on "oversamples for polling" in order to "maximize what we get out of our media polling."
I also want to get your Atlas folks to recommend oversamples for our polling before we start in February. By market, regions, etc. I want to get this all compiled into one set of recommendations so we can maximize what we get out of our media polling.
The email even includes a handy, 37-page guide with the following poll-rigging recommendations. In Arizona, over sampling of Hispanics and Native Americans is highly recommended:Research, microtargeting & polling projects- Over-sample Hispanics- Use Spanish language interviewing. (Monolingual Spanish-speaking voters are among the lowest turnout Democratic targets)- Over-sample the Native American populationFor Florida, the report recommends "consistently monitoring" samples to makes sure they're "not too old" and "has enough African American and Hispanic voters." Meanwhile, "independent" voters in Tampa and Orlando are apparently more dem friendly so the report suggests filling up independent quotas in those cities first.'
'Donald Trump has selected one of the best-known climate skeptics to lead his U.S. EPA transition team, according to two sources close to the campaign.
Myron Ebell, director of the Center for Energy and Environment at the conservative Competitive Enterprise Institute, is spearheading Trump's transition plans for EPA, the sources said.'

Quite warms the cockles of my heart especially as the BBC will be so upset by this reality check.
'The election of the Hard-Right racist neoliberal Fascist Trump is literally the biggest disaster for the world – and indeed elsewhere – since that literally dark day in June when a literally tiny handful of 17,410,742 Far-Right bigots – who, let it never be forgotten, represent absolutely nobody but themselves – viciously voted against Our EU!The totally sickening and disgraceful behaviour of these vicious voters – whether in the US or in the UK – is literally appalling! HOW DARE THEY, friends!I for one, friends, do not remotely accept this so-called result, any more than I accept the vicious vote against Our EU. So-called "democracy" is all very well and good in theory, but not when it degenerates in to Mob Rule, which is clearly the case here.'

It does seem to be what I imagine the thoughts of various Jeremy Corbyn supporters and BBC journalists think.
If this was a boxing match, either the referee would have stopped the fight or Jennifer Rubin's corner would have thrown in the towel.
Of course on the BBC a reporter would have just accepted Jennifer Rubin's claims, agreed with them and summarised for the host in the studio that Trump is a racist, Bill O'Reilly is biased and that all American voters should VOTE HILLARY.
Watch this video and ask yourself how many BBC reporters, journalists, editors etc know any Trump supporters, Brexit voters or even Conservatives.
The disconnect between the people and the media and opinion formers is huge in the UK and the USA. The disconnect means that the mainstream media including the BBC can't see what's happening in the country. If all your friends, family and colleagues support Hillary Clinton, want to stay in the EU and vote Labour, Lib Dem, SNP or Green then why would you believe that other views have much support.
Thankfully this disconnect has happened at a time when people don't have to consume the news that the mainstream media including the BBC pump out. The Internet has made alternative views easier to find and people are finding out what the mainstream media including the BBC are hiding from them. The BBC barely reported on the latest Wikileaks revelations but people found them on YouTube etc and educated themselves.
The BBC's upset is so much fun to hear today. Maybe if they'd listened to real Americans rather than the Washington elite, Hollywood celebrities and New York rich folk then they wouldn't be so surprised.
Some decent analysis of the US Presidential Election result, far better than the weeping and wailing on the BBC.
Care to retract that over-confident comment Mr Barack Hussein Obama?
You'd need a heart of stone not to appreciate that piece of video. MSNBC have been almost as pro Hillary Clinton as the BBC.
It looks as though the late counts in Michigan MAY be turning the result there. Donald Trump's lead is smaller than the uncounted votes and those votes are in Democrat strongholds. It looks like too big a lead but if just a few extra Democrat votes can be found then it might be close enough for a recount and then who knows what chicanery might be tried.
You can keep an eye on this at many sites but the New York Times stats are quite fun to watch change
http://www.nytimes.com/elections/forecast/president/michigan
So was Julian Assange wrong?
Will the election result not be allowed to stand?
How will the US Democrats and their fellow travellers in the mainstream media manage to overturn the result?
Maybe a traumatised SJW will launch a legal challenge based upon some spurious grounds.
Maybe a traumatised lefty will take it upon themselves to assassinate Donald Trump, for the good of America?
I get the strangest feeling that there are a few more twists to come before inauguration day in January.
Could Hillary Clinton still win this Presidential Election? It's possible, look out for large late Democrat votes in battleground states that have Democrat majorities and control in the big cities. There the dead can still vote, often more than once each!
It looks like Donald Trump will win the US Presidential Election, so the next big question is what aspect of his victory will the Democrats and their fellow travellers in the mainstream media, including the BBC find 'questionable' in order to complain about the result?
If Trump wins in the Electoral College but not the popular vote then expect "it's unfair" to be the cry.
If Donald Trump wins a usually Democrat state by a tiny margin expect tears about him getting all that state's votes, even though that's the rule (in 48 states) and it's worked in favour of Democrat presidents in the past.
Above all expect James Comey to get blamed for derailing Hillary Clinton's campaign by reopening the investigation two weeks before polling and only closing it again two days before polling.
CNN at least reported the facts, depressing for them though they may be. The BBC is still in full VOTE HILLARY mode.

Fascinating...
Our final snapshot of the national popular vote gives Hillary Clinton a six percentage point lead over Donald Trump, 47 to 41 percent, with 6 percent for Libertarian Gary Johnson and 3 percent for Green Party candidate Jill Stein.Clinton's lead has been remarkably steady during the Fall campaign. As reported by our partners at NBC News, "Clinton has not only maintained a lead over the Republican nominee since the end of July, but the margin of her lead has been between 4 to 6 percentage points since the second week of September."That six point lead in the popular vote translates into a lopsided Clinton advantage in the all-important Electoral College. Our final snapshot of voter preferences in all 50 states plus DC, based on more than 74,186 interviews conducted during the final week of the campaign, gives Clinton a lead of three percentage points or better in 21 states. That's a total of 257 electoral votes, which is thirteen shy of the 270 needed to win. Although Trump leads by three percentage points or better in 23 states, they earn him just 188 electoral votes.While the race is closer in seven states – classified as "toss-ups" colored in grey on our map – SurveyMonkey's tracking has given Clinton modest but consistent numerical leads in five states, two of which alone (Florida and Michigan) would assure an Electoral College victory. Clinton would pick up a total of 45 more electoral votes if she were to win both.Three more states – Arizona, Georgia, and Nevada, representing another 33 electoral votes–have been genuine toss-ups in our tracking, with very narrow margins that have not consistently favored either candidate.

'At least 20 Islamists have joined the Germany's armed forces in order to gain detailed knowledge of explosives and weapons, the country's intelligence service has found.
The military counterintelligence service (MAD) says a further 60 recruits are being investigated over suspicious links to Islamic State sympathisers, with fears "sleeper" agents could even turn their guns on comrades.'

I'd have challenged her false assertions about Israel but then I might not have kept my cool as well as this US shop owner.
I've only watched the first 30 seconds or so of this video so I've no idea what comes thereafter but that initial part contains a great conspiracy theory!
Some facts and questions arising from Rudy Giuliani that the likes of the BBC just aren't interested in pursuing.
I went to bed last night just as the news broke that the FBI would not be pursuing any further the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails. The BBC were ecstatic...
One fact not being reported by the VOTE HILLARY BBC or indeed much of the equally pro Hillary Clinton mainstream media is this:
'RNC chairman Reince Priebus is making it known that the FBI's public corruption investigation of the Clinton Foundation is ongoing.
"The FBI's findings from its criminal investigation of Hillary Clinton's secret email server were a damning and unprecedented indictment of her judgment. The FBI found evidence Clinton broke the law, that she placed highly classified national security information at risk and repeatedly lied to the American people about her reckless conduct," Priebus said in a statement provided to Breitbart News.'
'Radical revenue raising proposals by Befordshire Police and Crime Commissioner means all drivers breaking the speed limit will be finedAll drivers who travel at more than 70 miles per hour on the motorway face being fined under radical new proposals being considered.Speed cameras would be switched on permanently across stretches of the motorway network catching everyone who exceeded the limit.Motorists would then be forced to pay a £100 fine as well as having points added to their licence, or could opt instead to attend a speed awareness course, costing £90.But rather than being used to improve road safety, the controversial plan is intended to raise millions of pounds in revenue for the police.'
'The introduction of smart motorways has seen a big rise in speeding fines, figures obtained by the BBC suggest.Between 2010 and 2015, fixed penalties issued on smart sections increased from 2,000 to 52,000, according to data collated by the BBC's The One Show.There are more than 236 miles of smart motorways in England, which use the hard shoulder and variable speed limits to control traffic flow.The government says they are used to improve capacity, not generate revenue.'
'A Jewish man has said that a passerby "deliberately tripped" him, called him a "Jew" and a "four by two" (Cockney rhyming slang for a Jew) and told him that he knew where he lived. The incident took place yesterday afternoon at around 15:00 in Stanmore in London.'
Earlier this morning we wrote about the obvious sampling bias in the latest ABC / Washington Post poll that showed a 12-point national advantage for Hillary. Like many of the recent polls from Reuters, ABC and The Washington Post, this latest poll included a 9-point sampling bias toward registered democrats.
"METHODOLOGY – This ABC News poll was conducted by landline and cellular telephone Oct. 20-22, 2016, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample of 874 likely voters. Results have a margin of sampling error of 3.5 points, including the design effect. Partisan divisions are 36-27-31 percent, Democrats - Republicans - Independents."

Now, for all of you out there who still aren't convinced that the polls are "adjusted", we present to you the following Podesta email, leaked earlier today, that conveniently spells out, in detail, exactly how to "manufacture" the desired data. The email starts out with a request for recommendations on "oversamples for polling" in order to "maximize what we get out of our media polling."
The email even includes a handy, 37-page guide with the following poll-rigging recommendations. In Arizona, over sampling of Hispanics and Native Americans is highly recommended:I also want to get your Atlas folks to recommend oversamples for our polling before we start in February. By market, regions, etc. I want to get this all compiled into one set of recommendations so we can maximize what we get out of our media polling.
For Florida, the report recommends "consistently monitoring" samples to makes sure they're "not too old" and "has enough African American and Hispanic voters." Meanwhile, "independent" voters in Tampa and Orlando are apparently more dem friendly so the report suggests filling up independent quotas in those cities first.Research, microtargeting & polling projects
- Over-sample Hispanics
- Use Spanish language interviewing. (Monolingual Spanish-speaking voters are among the lowest turnout Democratic targets)
- Over-sample the Native American population
Meanwhile, it's suggested that national polls over sample "key districts / regions" and "ethnic" groups "as needed."- Consistently monitor the sample to ensure it is not too old, and that it has enough African American and Hispanic voters to reflect the state.
- On Independents: Tampa and Orlando are better persuasion targets than north or south Florida (check your polls before concluding this). If there are budget questions or oversamples, make sure that Tampa and Orlando are included first.
...- General election benchmark, 800 sample, with potential over samples in key districts/regions
- Benchmark polling in targeted races, with ethnic over samples as needed
- Targeting tracking polls in key races, with ethnic over samples as needed
And that's how you manufacture a 12-point lead for your chosen candidate and effectively chill the vote of your opposition. '
'Four people were injured when a car mounted a pavement and ploughed into a group of pedestrians.A woman was seriously injured in the hit and run in Humberstone Gate, Leicester, shortly before 17:00 GMT, police said.Eyewitnesses told the BBC they saw a car with a smashed windscreen being driven "erratically" after the crash.Others said the car appeared to have been deliberately driven at the group of pedestrians.'
'When Israel resident Jack de Lowe wanted to buy a wing mirror for his Ford Focus earlier this month, he finally tracked down the part to a garage in Oldham, northern England.Although thousands of miles from where he lives, he was interested in buying a used mirror, not a new one, and Ford Parts Oldham seemed the most cost-effective option.He was expecting to pay about £40 for the mirror but he was instead quoted the vastly inflated figure of £1,025.When he emailed the firm again to query the amount, he received the following response (all spelling errors contained in it are deliberately reproduced below):"As we do not recognise the state of israel we do not ship to such non exitent ountries hwoever delivery to palestin can be arranged at a sensible price."The message wasn't signed.News website Heat Street rang Ford Parts Oldham for confirmation that it had really sent the message:The manager and owner of the business, Mursal Israr, admitted he had sent it personally.He said he was justified in doing so because it is his right not to do business with an individual if he doesn't want to.
He said: "I sent the email myself…We don't recognise the illegal occupation of Israel. We don't believe in the illegal occupation of what is going on there and there's innocent Muslims and people are getting killed there on a daily basis so we don't wish to do any business with the state of Israel whatsoever because we don't recognise the state of Israel."'
'According to an NBC Associate Producer of the Forum, as soon as Clinton got off the set, she exploded. “Hillary proceeded to pick up a full glass of water and throw it at the face of her assistant, and the screaming started.” “She was in a full meltdown and no one on her staff dared speak with her – she went kind of manic and didn't have any control over herself at that point.” “How these people work with this woman is amazing to me. She really didn't seem to care who heard any of it.” “You really had to see this to believe it. She came apart – literally unglued; she is the most foul-mouthed woman I’ve ever heard … and that voice at screech level … awful!” “She screamed she’d get that f…..ing Lauer fired for this.” Referring to Donald Trump, Clinton said: “If that f - - - ing bastard wins, we all hang from nooses! Lauer’s finished...and if I lose it’s all on your heads for screwing this up.”Why would Hillary Clinton think that she and her aides would hang if Donald Trump gets elected? What are they guilty of?
'The last Labour government advocated the same migrant dental checks that have caused so much outrage among the Twitterati today.Back in 2007 the then immigration minister Liam Byrne said that dental checks had to be considered to prevent abuse of the system:"If it is true that a dental x-ray is able to establish within a more precise range an individuals' age than any other form of determination then I think we have really got to look very hard at that evidence. We cannot have adults in the children's system. Adults in the children's system, I believe, pose a serious threat to our obligation to protect children effectively."'
"We have to do a better job of making our people (voters) do what they are suposed to do. Not asking them, making them. Not expecting them and taking them for granted but beating the shit out of them and then making them do it."
'In this explosive new video from Project Veritas Action, a Democratic dirty tricks operative unwittingly provides a dark money trail to the DNC and Clinton campaign. The video documents violence at Trump rallies that is traced to the Clinton campaign and the DNC through a process called birddogging.and here it is...
A shady coordinated communications chain between the DNC, Clinton Campaign, Hillary Clinton’s Super PAC (Priorities) and other organizations are revealed. A key Clinton operative is on camera saying, “It doesn’t matter what the friggin’ legal and ethics people say, we need to win this motherfucker."'
'The resolution repeatedly denounced Israeli actions, including the use of force, imposition of restrictions on Muslim worshippers and archaeological work. Israel regards such criticism as politically motivated.'That line comes from this BBC report on UNESCO's latest anti-Israel move.
"Israeli actions, including... restrictions on Muslim worshipper"That line is fascinating especially as it's actually Jews that are banned from worshipping on the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism, whilst Muslims worship in a mosque there, a mosque that was built on top of the ruins of the Jewish Temple.
'A Tory MP who called for child migrants arriving in the UK from Calais to have their teeth tested to verify their ages has been condemned by dentists.A number of unaccompanied children from the "Jungle" camp have arrived to join relatives in the UK - amid suggestions they could be adults trying to get in.David Davies, MP for Monmouth, said mandatory teeth checks would reassure people the UK was not being exploited.But the British Dental Association said such checks would be unethical.The BDA, which represents dentists and dental students in the UK, also disputed claims that dental radiographs can accurately determine whether someone is under the age of 18 or not.British and French officials have begun registering unaccompanied children in Calais, with the first children with links to the UK having arrived this week.However, photographs of some of the children have been printed on the front pages of some national newspapers, along with headlines questioning their ages.''
Absolutely fascinating and the anti-police 'journalists' at the BBC should be made to watch it before they next opine about trigger-happy police.
'In this video I explain the reality of reaction time and the OODA loop in police shootings as well as demonstrate the speed at which a threat can get off a shot while you are trying to decide whether they are armed. Many people doubt the logic behind Police training. I have attended many police funerals of those officers who were killed by suspects bringing a firearm out of a vehicle.'
'A man died just hours after he was brutally beaten and threatened with being set alight by his neighbour, who was angry with him for having voted for Brexit, a court has heard.'
'Jeremy Corbyn has been strongly condemned by the Home Affairs Select Committee for failing to understand anti-Semitism and creating a"safe space" for racists in the Labour Party. The inquiry's damning findings are laid out in as severe language as you will ever see from a select committee:"Despite his proud record on fighting racism, the Committee is not persuaded that Mr Corbyn fully appreciates the distinct nature of contemporary antisemitism, and the fact that it is perfectly possible for an 'anti-racist campaigner' to express antisemitic views. His lack of consistent leadership on this issue has created what some have referred to as a 'safe space' for those with vile attitudes towards Jewish people, exacerbated by the Party's demonstrable incompetence at dealing with members accused of antisemitism."'
'Brad said visitors had since been allowed to leave the zoo.'
'"I'm old enough to remember a president who erased 18 and a half minutes and they ran him out of town," said Pence — the reference to the Watergate scandaland former President Nixon being forced into leaving the office of President of the United States. "And Hillary Clinton deleted more than 18,000 emails that were under a subpoena from the United States congress.""Men and women, that doesn't look like politics to me, that looks like obstruction," said Pence.'
