Lots of stuff happening on our collective Facebook timelines right now, isn't there? A lot of great opinions going out about the US election formed from the comfort of British living rooms - really informed and useful stuff. Have you #JoinedTheDebate yet?

Finally someone worth listening to has waded in. The Kremlin have offered their hot take on the election, saying that Trump's election had helped prevent World War III and the impending nuclear holocaust that has been beginning to look ever likely over the last few months.

Trump express his admiration of Vladmir Putin during the course of his campaign, and the Russian premier yesterday spoke of his hopes tensions between Russia and America can now be set aside.

His aide Sergei Glazyev went further, describing Clinton as a symbol of war.

Daily Mail reports that he said: "Americans had two choices: World War Three or multilateral peace. Clinton was a symbol of war, and Trump has a chance to change this course."

And in a speech yesterday, Putin stated: "We have heard the pre-election statements by then-candidate (Trump), which were directed at rebuilding relations between Russia and the US.

"We understand that this will not be an easy path considering the unfortunate degradation of relations.

"But Russia is ready and wants to restore full-fledged relations with the US."

So it looks like the winds of change of blowing - and that change could mean Putin and Trump becoming best buds. This mean no irradiated death for any of us.

That said, after 4 years of Trump in power, we might be begging for the bombs to start falling.
