The Youth Court is a good idea because it tries to steer kids away from adult prisons and a life of crime. But when it fails, it fails spectacularly, and we all pay the price for leniency. 

Take teenager Dontae Eden. When he was 16, he bashed a 78-year-old man nearly to death while the old guy slept in his bed. 

A Youth Court judge gave him a warning and told him to keep out of trouble. 

If that's not lenient, I don't know what is. Did he stay out of trouble? No. 

Stuff reports that three months later he robbed a bloke in Wellington, stole from a petrol station, and resisted arrest by the cops. 

He's now 18 and will be dealt with by the same judge in the District, not Youth Court. 

I'm all for second chances, and the youth court in some cases, but surely if you beat someone nearly to death in such a brutal fashion, there's nothing particularly youthful about your actions. 

You're not acting like a youth whose made a wee mistake and needs a hand turning things around. You've acted like a thug, and more should have been done to stop another crime from being committed. 

This guy was seen running from the old guy's house with a crowbar. The judge gave him home detention for this second round of offending. 

So, you can beat an old man, mug another, rip off a gas station, and fight with the cops, and never see the inside of a cell? 

Keeping him out of jail might be better for him in the long-term, we're told, but is it better for us, the public - walking down the street or, God forbid, sleeping in our own beds at night?

Of course, Donald Trump is going to win the US election, of course he is.

I've been saying that since July on this programme, not that anyone will listen to me.

He would have also whipped Biden like a bottle of cream.

Too many Americans are hurting with the cost of living, and that's all the motivation you need really to get out and vote, isn't it?

Republicans are doing it early in record numbers, which they don't normally do, including in the swing states.

In Georgia, half of the 8 million eligible voters there went early, which is astonishing.

They also included 700,000 people who never voted in 2020.

Now, why would they be voting this time around?

You could say it might be the fact it's a, you know, a female or woman of colour that they're wanting to elect, but the polls show the more likely motivation is financial.

You feel poor pissed off and you vote the current lot out, be it Biden or Harris.

Plus, Harris hasn't helped herself swearing black and blue that Bidenomics is working when people know in their pockets that it's not blindly defending Biden's mental state despite everyone thinking he's gone doolally.

It's sort of reminiscent of Jacinda Ardern. She refused to call the cost of living crisis a crisis despite the fact It's like the toughest economic period in a generation. It enrages people when you do that, and calling Trump a Nazi or a fascist isn't going to stop him because people don't vote for Trump because he's a saint, do they?

Add to that the fact that the markets are pricing in a Trump victory, the fact he always does better on election day than in the polls because his voters don't like pollsters and that while he's not ahead in the popular vote, his polling now is higher at this stage of the campaign than when he won in 2016.

Add those things together, you have a pretty strong case.

I think that Donald Trump is going to take back the White House this week.
