A beloved zoo animal in Thailand predicted the winner of the 2024 U.S. election.
In a video posted on TikTok by the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Chonburi province, Thailand’s viral baby hippo, Moo Deng, "predicted" a win for former president Donald Trump.
The viral video shows Moo Deng choosing between two watermelon cakes, both covered with the name of each presidential candidate, Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Moo Deng picks the watermelon with Trump's name on it.
"If Moo Deng thinks Trump’s got it, then who are we to argue? Cake and confidence, now that’s a winning combo!" one person commented on X.
"Smart Hippo…so much winning…," another person commented.
"See, it’s not that hard people…… even the Hippo knows who’s better for America….," another person commented on the video.
Moo Deng, who was born on July 10, 2024, to parents Tony and Jona, has become a bona fide viral sensation after images of her reacting strongly to a bath were shared on X.
Since then, the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in the province of Chonburi has experienced a massive influx of visitors as people seek to get a glimpse of the baby hippo.
Online, particularly on X and TikTok, users have expressed their adoration of Moo Deng, and her expressive face has been used as reaction memes.
Moo Deng, whose name translates to "Bouncy Pig" or "Bouncy Pork," is a pygmy hippopotamus, an endangered species.
Pygmy hippopotamuses are found in West Africa, mainly Liberia, according to the Pygmy Hippo Foundation's website. There are about 2,000 pygmy hippos remaining in the wild.
The pygmy hippopotamus is about half as tall as a standard hippopotamus, and weighs about a quarter as much. They grow to a height of approximately 2.5 feet tall, according to the Pygmy Hippo Foundation.

4 years ago today I was at the Trump Doral Hotel in Miami. Trump had added a rally in Hialeigh at like 11pm. My wife guessed that Trump would sleep in his Miami hotel that night so we booked a room. The next morning at about 7 we woke up and went to the valet area where it was covered in secret service. They screed us an allowed us to stand on a little porch overlooking the valet area. To our left about 80 years away was the beast near one of the guest buildings. There were about 30 of us on the porch all excited to catch a glimpse. Trump came out and saw the small crowd.
He walked past the beast which slowly flanked him and he walked up to us and just stood there and chatted and took questions for about 20 minutes. On the day of the election where he had a million things to do, he took the time to listen and talk. It was an amazing experience. God watch over this man for all his days. Have resolve my friends.

So he thinks an America under Trump is so dangerous that he will leave the country, but leave his wife and kids behind? What great character.

Heading out to vote as soon as the wife gets home from work in about a hour. We live in a small community of about 300. Lines are never a problem and there are a lot of elderly who vote first thing in the morning. Already told the wife the tv will not be tuned to any of the news programs. I'm not going to listen to the fools get way out ahead of themselves either way.
I plan on watching the hockey game as usual tonight and check in here on occasion for an update. I have a jug of my neighbors moonshine on hand for the wife and I to partake in once the good news becomes official. Then and only then will I turn to CNN or MSNBC to witness the tears flow like Niagra!

My wife and I have our ballots filled in for Trump. Just need to figure out some of these confusingly-worded propositions and then I'll run our ballots in to the drop box. Gonna hang my Trump 2024 flag off the back of my tailgate.

Went around 8:45 this morning to my little podunk town voting place in Berks County, PA (1 of 2) and usually I'm in and out in 5 minutes. Today? 1 hour. Never saw that before in 10 years!
The line was about 80 people long and another line about 30 people deep to check in and get your paper slip for the machine. Halfway to the machines, this was starting to descend into chaos as more people kept coming and getting in the wrong line. I asked a guy to hold my spot and went up and spoke to one of the poll workers and pointed this out and asked if they could put someone there to guide the line or signs (WHY this wasn't thought of in advance is beyond me) so they taped the floor with yellow tape and had someone controlling the flow as people came in.
Then by the time I got to the (4) machines, only 2 were still working. Pennsylvania got millions of dollars to sort this kind of thing out and it looks like they did nothing. Friends of mine also reported long lines early at other places in PA and DE.
I think this turnout may break records.

FWIW, I am not trying to inject any negativity just that the importance makes me nervous. Kind of like the first tee jitters times 1 Million. I apologize if I came off as a skeptic and please delete if necessary.

This morning, my phone was constantly sending me alerts from friends sending me pictures of themselves in voting lines. There was a really good one from Huntsville Alabama that looked like one of those iphone lines from back in the day. My buddy up there said the line was long but it only took 30 minutes from the car back to the car. I'm not getting negative vibes from my folks, It has been all positive and more of a "Let's Go!" kind of vibe.

Come on man, that’s just rude. Cut a brother a little slack.
I’m holding positive energy and looking forward to celebrating the rout, but I’ll be happier when the anticipation is over and the time for celebration is here. Bring on the commie tears, let it rain!

COMANDO for the win bitches! The chafing reminds us we are alive.
Nice sunny day here in the Inland Northwest. Hockey game tonight and all the kids are doing well. The lady friend is riding high from a fantasy football win and I have a nice lunch pail at the ready. Smith and Wesson has a little rebate program going on new wheel guns, I may swing by my favorite store this afternoon and get a couple coming.
