Naturally Huuellebecq openly admits he is a rampant Islamophobe and is under 24 hour armed guard. Hence the appeal I guess.
More surprisingly though, is that, despite his literary prowess, he is the very definition of an sex-obsessed uncouth vulgarian. Borneo, I am surprised that you are drawn to and titilated by such a body of work. I have always found him to be over-rated, personally. |

You obviously know little about the man himself. His novels are autobiographical, he is the central character. |

Breathtaking! More truthiness because it can't be disproven. |

Doubtful if Trump himself has ever read a book!

I will invade your thread Wild One only once mind because I have work to do. From Bloomberg.
“It’s an amazingly impressive recovery off the lows for risk assets,” said Craig Collins, managing director of rates trading at Bank of Montreal in London. “It’s very surprising given the feel the session had to start with, that it was a massive risk-off flight to quality bid. Now the early losses are getting erased and it looks like it could go unchanged on the day by the time the U.S. gets in.” Nothing has changed. |

Trump read the book Adios America alright,where do you think he got the facts on immigrant crime.
Where do you think he got the idea of bringing the " angel moms " to his rally. Royal Academy can't hack an opinion. I read Adios America and found it brilliant,that's an opinion not a fact. Its also my opinion that that book won the election for Trump. |

I'm amazed at Tony stressing the education qualifications of Trump voters,it shouldn't matter they are entitled to vote.
When Tony says the uneducated voted for Trump I call it the working class. |

Ann Coulter was excellent (again) on 'Newsnight', I think it was Monday evening.
You can see why 'Newsnight' (and other BBC news outlets) are so reluctant to invite Pro-Trump voices into their 'safe spaces', because Coulter and co quickly wipe the floor with the anti-Trump guests. It's all over now bar the inevitable phone-in punters being given carte blanche to shout (and text) "He's a WAAAAAAAAY-CIST" and inform us that only the uneducated voted for him. |

wildman..the last thing im doing is having ago at the uneducated voter...im just explaining the facts and what and who voted...the majority of trumps voters would not know about the book i can assure you...they voted for change...simple

Presume Wildman means that the nature of the book in part dictated the way Trump campaigned rather than him assuming voters having read it.

So are we saying that all those who voted for the Witch were educated , I doubt it very much , the least educated people in America are non whites . So this argument fails the test.

You think? I would be fairly certain that the most educated racial group in America would be the Asian Americans. |

By:
Interesting point Ozy,i was in a local library last week and noticed the number of Asian irish people with there children there, have also seen black children with there mothers in the past.
|

By:
Ozy , I think the reality is a little different , of course lots of American Asians have a high degree of education, but the vast majority of non whites in America are NOT Asian , I think even YOU know that ...
