In our lovely nation, should we have any concerns about the USA’s presidential election?
From a financial perspective, a win for Hillary Clinton would likely be more advantageous.
The business leaders and stock brokers in America are rallying behind Hillary, providing her with a significant edge in the battle for the White House.
Conversely, our Australian tradition tends to favor the underdog.
The underhanded tactics employed by both candidates are far from what we deem acceptable in a democratic society.
Historically, Republicans are viewed as the representatives of wealth, while Democrats champion the working class. However, in this election, the Democrats are outspending the Republicans by millions.
The media, including newspapers and TV channels, seems overwhelmingly in favor of Hillary, often criticizing Donald Trump. While policies take a backseat, personal attacks have become the focal point of both campaigns.
So, are we concerned about this election?
Do we have any interest in who comes out on top?
The answer is a resounding no – we are not participants in the vote and cannot influence the outcome.
However, Donald Trump may triumph, overcoming the monumental political and media onslaught directed at him.
Would I place a wager on it? – I would say, never bet against a sure thing…but in America, anything is possible.
This is less a Game of Thrones and more akin to a Shame of Thrones.
If you liken the presidential race to a Shame of Thrones, my prediction stands as follows:
The Whitewalkers may seem insane but have vulnerabilities, and the Dragon Queen enjoys a good fire, while Joffrey is already gone, the Blonde Ice Queen endures…my bet is on Cersei Lannister.
