China’s ‘Monkey King’ predicts Donald Trump WILL WIN the US presidential election

Cheeky creature known for predicting Euro 2016 champs Portugal tips the Republican candidate to win White House race

DONALD J Trump WILL be the next President of the United States, according to a decree by China's 'Monkey King'.

Also known as Geda, the mystic monkey shot to fame for correctly tipping Portugal to win the Euro 2016 football championship last summer.

This time, when poised to choose between Trump and Hillary Clinton, the simian seer darted toward a cut-out of the Republican candidate.

Wearing a yellow shirt with his royal title proudly scrawled on the front, Geda took a "deliberate thought" before plumping for The Donald over Democrat Mrs Clinton.

And he couldn't wait to congratulate Trump on his inevitable victory -- sealing his approval with a kiss on the cardboard candidate's lips.

Wise Geda, five, proved his worth in July when he was presented with the flags of Euro finalists Portugal and France with bananas attached to both.

Opting to eat the Portuguese fruit, Geda correctly predicted Christiano Ronaldo's side would go on to win 1-0.

The primate, who lives at Shiyanhu Ecological Tourism Park in China, is the latest Clairvoyant critter to have gained fame since Paul the Octopus correctly predicted the outcome of a string of football matches at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

The world-famous mollusc got every Germany game spot on, and also stuck on Spain beating the Netherlands in the final.
