Trump Heading for Victory on Back of Rust Belt Rebellion.
Upset Stuns Establishment in Brexit Reprise.
On the back of a swag of stunning victories across the Midwest, Republican candidate Donald Trump has defied the pundits and is on the verge of claiming a shock election victory.
Donald Trump as won key swing states of Ohio and Florida, has taken North Carolina and at around 100 am US eastern time Trump has a solid 259 of the required 270 electoral college votes with a victory in either Wisconsin and Michigan putting the election beyond the reach of the Democrat candidate.
With 97% counted trump is ahead in Pennsylvania, he also leads in Michigan and Wisconsin,Clinton surrogates admit that their only path to victory is to swing Arizona, with two thrds of the vote counted Trump leads in Arizona by three points. It is over.
Neither candidate has appeared before the public despite the fact that it is well after midnight on the east coast. Presumably Mrs Clinton will concede in the coming hours as the faint possibility of victory is completely extinguished and the apparent President elect will follow after that.
Markets have plummeted across the world and the controlled media are alternating between ashen grief and pretending that they supported Trump all along.
The media, the polls and the establishment have received a stunning repudiation they would be wise to heed.
