Trump

Trump becomes President.
Millions around the world get TDS and spend the next 4 years of their lives obsessing over his every move.
Trump still President.

I do recommend SBS 8 part series Mussolini Son of the Century, just finished it yesterday.
It's not a doco, it's a drama (yep even sex and violence)(plenty of violence).
Luca Marinelli as Benito is outstanding, it's impossible to take your eyes off him. Not a film buff but the production was eyecatching, to me at least. Subtitles might put some off but didn't bother me at all.
Not suggesting trump is the modern Mussolini but as someone who'd heard a fair bit about Hitler but never much about Il duce I found it interesting, and definitely some modern themes reflected.
Which is why I posted it here!

Worth a look.

I remember the great days of SBS where a young lad could look forward to some adult type enlightenment on a Friday and Saturday night. But I digress.

Ever wondered why the apparent obsession of western media with right wing mass murderers like Hitler, but the apparent disregard of left wing mass murderers such as Stalin (conservative estimate of 20 million deaths through purges and the like) and Pol Pot (estimated death of 25% of cambodia’s population)? It’s almost like there is a political objective at play, but that can’t be right, our media is completely unbiased, as we know.
