Guest #4646 Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) Its worrying that some supporters of Trump have taken to demonstrate whilst armed. This just shows what his presidency has led to, how it has shaped America in the 4 years. He's divided people and is going to do worse if he shockingly wins another term. Trump in 2mins https://mobile.twitter.com/mehdirhasan/status/1323433113750540290?s=20&fbclid=IwAR0OgvF-G3ezvV_Fo-Ols3HdEaO9Zfnte9NvjLk4qOuA8mBQtYFQAT__ZFo Edited November 5, 2020 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Of course his supporters carry guns , Al Cappone and his supporters carried guns too, its the norm for gangsters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Four year terms seem short given the amount of time and money spent for each election. I don't think having early voting and different rules in different US states regarding postal and absentee votes help in trusting the system. Our own relative quick General Election campaigns are much better than the US system. However, the UK sent out the wrong message to the World regarding the EU referendum because of all those who fought to overturn that democratic result. It's not only Trump who is a bad advert for democracy. Political opposition is a "bad advert for democracy"? Seriously? I don't recall remainers camping outside polling stations with shotguns, or chanting "stop the vote" or "count the vote" according to exit polls for the location. Do you? I *do* remember plenty of 'snowflake' and 'we won get over it' comments from leavers, however, with the exact same non-inclusive, rubbishing manner as MAGA voters in late 2016. Nothing to do with fact-informed politics, all to do with 'winning' (...what, exactly?) Who are now proving themselves to be either the biggest snowflakes, or the most cretinous, in the US, then?

RJRB 688 #4652 Posted November 5, 2020 1 hour ago, West 77 said: Yes, Trump is probably the Word's biggest snowflake. Trump is looking like a sore loser just like many remainers are sore losers. Sore losers like Trump and the remainers are not a good advert for democracy. It's ironic that many remainers have one thing in common with Trump. Sore losers are commonplace. Sore “winners”such as Farage and his followers are something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I am expecting Biden to take Georgia now because it is just mail in ballots being counted now and they are generally breaking 3:1 for Biden if not better.

Guest #4656 Posted November 5, 2020 Watching the Politics Show earlier on bbc2, Andrew Neil was saying it could take days before a winner is announced. That the voting re- count being touted by Trump and his supporters, is serious given the 1% lead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
