I was expecting the debut of Robogarda

Good chance here to beat New Zealand; 25-8 up at half time. Pity most the country can't watch it on bt/setanta

As good a 40 mins of rugby as you'll see. Took advantage of every all black slip up.
Now for once let's see it out.

Pentecost

Looking ominous now

ERG89

Surely now......

Amazing Chicago is going to be drank dry for the second time in a week!

kksaints

Was worried when NZ closed to within 4 but thats a stunning performance and result.

Mr.Nice Guy

What a result!

ERG89

Pity it wasn't in Ireland & over in the States but waiting that long to beat them I'd take beating them in a field of cabbage in Tullamore.

I've never had as good a night out as last night. Absolutely done today but so worth it. It's 20 degrees here too. Sweating me hole off. Saw the Cubs parade and went to a hockey game because cena on loves it.

Don't know if I have ever woke up as sad and depressed about the world as I am today.

The scary thing is how it could really hit us too. If he recalls all the American businesses like Apple, you could be looking at massive lay offs in this country. Stock markets accross the world going to crash as well.

PTH2009

Will he last the 4 years ???

I'm hungover, shocked and scared

South Park is going to be all over this

Agent Coulson

So we now live in an episode of the Twilight Zone.

This election will not effect my life one bit.

Crazy to think one of the main events of wrestlemania 23 is president of america

gerrybbadd

I was genuinely surprised with the news this morning, especially given that HilLIARy was meant to walk it, given reports yesterday evening.

So if Hillary had of gotten in, WW3 was a certainty. And The Donald will have the nuclear codes. Christ.

On another note, Donald has a history of hosting Wrestlemanias at his venues. Mania 35 at the White House anyone?

This...people can cool it with the fear mongering...yes the stock markets will take a hit but they'll level out quickly enough once everyone gets over the fear mongering...there will be no ''major crash'' and if anything ww3 just became less likely...some of the amateur dramatics at the minute are embarrassing

The scary thing about trump is old vinny mac himself is one of his closet friends and as we know vinny is as crazy as they come so you can only imagine the people he has around him.

Two counter points.

One. He has already said he wants to get the American companies like those in Ireland back home. There is a strong chance 100s if not 1000s of Irish jobs could disappear because of this.

Two. Putin very obviously wanted Trump in. You are probably right, there won't be a WW3. Because Putin will just walk all over Trump. No experience dealing with world leaders, no experience dealing with the potential Cold War.

What saddens me is that the things we criticise the Middle East for (Anti Gay rights, pro abuse of women and seeing them as sex objects, racism), America just voted in.

Hillary was a horrid candidate. That she couldn't beat Trump reflects so, so poorly on here and is a horrid mark to end her career on. But make no mistake. Trump stands for just about everything I think the first world was trying to portray itself as in recent times. It is a "yuuuge" step backwards for civil rights the world over.

dont really see him being let do much of that tbh...He's taking over from barack obama not kim jung il, the president of america cant just faff around making up things as he goes along, he has to go through the senate and the house of representatives and while they are a republican majority they're not going to go along blindly with everything he says, if we think back a few weeks the republicans all but turned their back on him. Re the things you're saying re his character, tbh they're all just opinions and no real proof has been produced just out of context soundbites and quotes regurgitated constantly and shoved down our throats...by no means am I saying he's perfect, far from it in fact, I just dont believe him to be the ''antichrist'' certain people would like to portray him as.
