      @@Jamestoland actually trump isnt a against the odds story: every US president since the 1950s was taller than their competitor during the election. hence why both trump and biden won.

      Donkeys are territorial, and are well known to patrol the border of their territory. Hence why they’re a popular alternative to livestock guardian dogs. They’re extremely driven to protect their home.
      Donkeys are slightly smarter than horses. Their sense of their body is superior to that of a horse. If you put a saddlebag on a horse, they will never learn to accommodate the bags. Horses will continually snag the bag on trees or other obstacles. They’ll walk under a low hanging tree with a rider on their back, etc. Donkeys, on the other hand, learn to accommodate packs or a rider and will avoid obstacles- the same way a cow will navigate their horns through obstacles. They’re better at being pack animals than horses because of this. So we use them not only as a mode of transportation but also to carry cargo. People have known this for a long time

    Why did this animal almost go extinct? Oh it's native to China. Yup no that pretty much explained everything right there already. The better question is how it didn't go extinct in China so I'm curious and will keep watching to find out more.

    I'm sorry, but referring to Donald Trump as an "against all the odds story" is priceless. Trump was backed after billionaire after billionaire, as well as Putin himself, and if he is to be believed, he himself is a billionaire. The odds were in his favour right from the very beginning.

      He was against the establishment candidate. Clinton was backed by the whole US Media, security, political and corporate establishment, as well as the whole establishment of her own party and part of the Republican establishment. Being a millionaire or even a billionaire doesn't really make you that powerful compared to entire superpowers. The corporations and elites behind Clinton (and Biden, now) represented literally trillions.
      And the Russian interference thing was a semi-hoax, the scale of it has been massively backpedaled since the initial claims were made.

      Not quite. He was going against a lot of the system and, until the election, was predicted to lose it.
