One response to “336. 8am: TRUMP WINS”

  1. “Strategist” – do me a fucking favour. You and that other beta, Rory Stewart, couldn’t predict the sun coming up in the east. Trying to blame the very left leaning UK msm for ‘trolling for Trump’, when all they did throughout was fawn at the altar of Harris’ woke inspired delusion, suggests that it was you and WawWee that were trying to manipulate reality. And you got it all so badly wrong. But it doesn’t matter to you, or even phase you for a moment, as you remorselessly pick up where you left off, trying to denigrate all those that oppose your twisted worldview. The lack of honesty, integrity and accountability, such a hallmark for you and New Labour back in the day, has not faded from your predictable and boorish attempts to remain relevant. Surely, you must’ve by now put enough ‘hay up in the barn’, (phrase lifted from another equally privileged, entitled and delusional plank as yourself) in order to toddle off into the sunset, so why not just do the honourable thing and fuck right off?
