I just could not face another day of American political crap.
Mmmm K - I do like some articles that appear in "Counter Punch", and "New Matilda".
But before the 2016 American election - it was all "Hillary Clinton is a war mongering scheming cunt".
And now that Donald Trump has been democratically elected, the American and indeed global media, has been masturbating themselves into a frenzy over this too.
I am tired of listening to the endless speculation and yapping dog bullshit....
