stanski Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 As a rule I have no interest in politics but the American voting at the moment is just so hilarious, Spitting Image can't keep up! Mayor of Philly and his big boy pants statement. Well done that man! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoogyRev Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Whats not so comical is what's not reported on the news. My buddy lives in Atlanta and currently has the BLM movement threatening to torch his entire neighbourhood to the ground if Tump wins, no doubt the Trumpette's have some form of retaliation up their sleeves as well for when he looses. It's going to be a @*!# show whatever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hear about them out with guns which maybe something normal over there but sounds scary! But it is nice to see policitians passing comments on camera in total disbelief at Trump's actions and comment, that guy is a total nut job! Did anyone see Newsnight last night and the lady in Detroit being interviewed, asked if she was worried about the Trump supporters intimidating them as they count votes ' They can come here if they want, this is Detroit do you think we are scared of them'? Which I thought was superb! Hopefully things begin to settle down after all this finishes but I doubt Trump will let this lie for months to come.

According to BBC news just now Biden has won which is great for normal.sensible people however I have a bad feeling there could be a violent civil war brewing because of Trump's supporters? Looking further afield it's going to damage that countries image on the world stage in the same way we did with the Brexit farce! Whilst all this is going on all the nut jobs will take advantage.

Ekona Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I’m sad that Trump didn’t win. At least he was entertaining, can’t see Biden The Bore matching that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't say that, our pensions are linked to the share market and since Trump lost its started to creep back up and thankfully recovered the drop.

Who knows I think the first job is to cool everything off and calm everyone down, after the mess Trump left! Things like that don't change overnight but at least if you have someone more 'normal' and diplomatic there is a chance.

HEADPHONES Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Agree Stan, the gun culture is SCARY. When the footage of large groups of armed militia taking over the streets was shown....I cringed in disbelief and terror. So glad it didn't kick off back then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy Joe has his work cut out even before he gets to sit in the Oval Office, Trump is not going to be helpful in the transition, but at least Biden can blame things on trump for the first 12months 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranTurismoEra Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Biden can request a White House eviction of Trump on Jan 20th. I think the supreme court will throw Trumps case out. As it undermines their system and makes US out to be hypocrites when it comes to Elections. Which is not the case but for Trump. It will be difficult for Biden over the next 4 years if Republicans dominate the senate. Then again many rebuplicans no longer back Trump due to his disparaging comments on the electoral system. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Muxlow Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Every time trump loses at anything he blames it on everyone else and how it was all stolen from him. He has no evidence as far as I know so should be thrown out by the courts I guess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones who make the most noise tend to be the ones caused the issue in the first place. 'it wasn't me it woz him!

Not entirely true, his team have found a sex offender and an eye/ear witness (who immediately recanted his story), they're both kinds of evidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Irrespective of his politics, he could equally be screeching left wing rubbish, instead of right. He's a sociopath and an example of what happens, however clever/stupid/poor/rich you are, if you go your whole life being told that you are better than everyone else, correct (in the face of overwhelming evidence) and never corrected for inappropriate behaviour. It could be his diminished empathy is a genetic condition or a social one - either way, the effect is much the same. Sadly this could be any one of us, if we were treated that way for 70 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that is deep but yes It's the old nurture and nature bit. Trouble is most of us don't have the finger on the nuclear button or herds (probably appropriate) of gun tottin nutters following your every word, leaders from other counties getting peed off because he makes something up about their country for self preservation reasons and we don't have the power to influence the stock markets with our wild boasts or just plain made up stuff! Otherwise excluding the fake tan we could easily be him yup. That must be a fly on the wall TV programme crying out to be made! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
