15-year-old Edward Burke from Melbourne, Australia is a big time Donald Trump fanboy, and it all started a few months back when he caught a news segment about the US presidential race.
Edward explains:
I’d always respected Donald Trump’s business achievements.
But they were running a clip that made him look like a racist, so I did some research and realised the clip had been misleadingly edited.
Ed explained that Trump has been talking immigration, but the part that justified his opinions had been edited out. He now believes the world is only being shown the negative side of Trump (although Trump seems to become more popular every day) and he wants to change that.
Edward decided to start up @TriumphTrump on Twitter (which has just over 600 follows, bit shit really) and started his own website thetrumpcampaign.com which breaks down Trump’s policies and credentials.
As you might expect, Ed spends much of his time attempting to engage his classmates in conversation about Donald Trump:
I try to tell them a bit more about Trump. Then they go home and tell their parents, who tell their friends, and so on.
A big night for me is spent trading gold stocks on the internet and managing my sites. I’d rather set myself up now and enjoy life later.
Ed’s dad told VICE:
Ed’s always had his interests and his opinions. Sometimes he can be a real pain in the arse.

Well, one thing I’ll commend Ed on is that he doesn’t give two shits what others think about him, which is pretty admirable in a 15-year-old. I think he’ll end up a pretty successful man.
Still, it’s kinda funny how someone who can’t even vote can be so pro-Trump. I’m not sure he even knows that he can’t vote but a) he’s 15 and b) he lives in Australia. Not only that he’s talking his classmates’ ears off about Donald Trump and none of them can vote either.
I’m not sure who thought that picture on the couch was a good idea either. Kid’s about to get rinsed to the moon when that gets passed around class.
Wonder what he makes of Donald Trump’s lame excuse for mocking a disabled reporter?
