What do you assign to Mordor?

That's funny, because to my mind Donald Trump is more equivalent to Sauron. It's really no contest.

I am breaking my normal rule about never discussing politics here: please, Americans, at all costs do not vote for this freak. You have the rest of the world bloody well terrified.

Odd, I didn't think it was your rule; I thought it was a forum rule that politics weren't to be discussed here. But, hey, if we're allowed to make exceptions, because reasons, well, I've got a manifesto or two that I'd love to post.

By the way, I'd caution you and any other non-Americans against trying to tell Americans how to vote. "The Guardian" found out the hard way in '04 that such efforts have a way of backfiring.

Only problem with that otherwise excellent advice is that the alternative is..... Hillary Clinton.


In a democracy, each party devotes its chief energies to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule — and both commonly succeed and are right. --H L Mencken

Rarely has that quip been as applicable as in this election. Can we just cancel it and have a do-over?
