He wont have the protection of the oval office and a bent AG will he?
No, but he also had zilch political support when he started out. Yet having a fake university, bankrupt casino, countless accusation of sexual misconduct and multitude of other scandals didn't harm him much. His voters think his abhorrent behavior is acceptable and somehow good for them.

Edit: But feck it. It's time to celebrate not time to be scared of what might happen 4 years from now.

They've set up a hotline about election corruption.

Half the calls will be "I saw on facebook..." and the other half from +7 numbers. Trump will no doubt claim millions of calls as explicit evidence, "many people are saying...".
Haha as if he needs that to say "many people are saying"...

I hear the Dems employed Uri Geller to trick the counters in PA into counting all ballots for Biden :eek:

"He just tells it like it is"
"Drain the swamp"
They lapped all his bs up and it only seemed to get worse when he got into power.

No better place to ask, but I watched The Ides of March last night.

Regarding Ohio’s DNC Primary process... am I right in understanding that Republicans can cast votes for which Democrat Candidate they prefer

Ive got a loose understanding of the four year process, but didn’t quite understand if the above was true. Or if I’ve missed something.

Appreciate detail or a concise link from an American.

Streaming service? Murdoch wont be able to touch that.
Physically perhaps not, but if he perceives Trump to be a competitive threat, he'll simply use his media empire to twist the narrative into Trump being a desperate, washed up loser, and then we'll see the likes of Fox News ridiculing him.

Clayton is maintaining their 6:1 ratio. With 4.5k left, it should be 3K net for Biden.

And then there’s another 4.4k in Gwinnett which is Biden +14 with E-Day votes included.

The military ballots might not matter at all in the end.
I don't think the military ballots will be a big R favor anyhow. I see it closer to 50/50, at best 55/45 to either side.

It’s been fun watching CNN for election coverage but damn, if I had to watch American news channels on a daily basis for news, it’d just be so excruciatingly painful. Since I’ve had CNN on in the background since, say, 7/8am today, they’ve said updated counts from
philly could be due imminently ... it’s been 5 hours since then FFS.

Wont be too sure. He will bring along 70million voters.
If the Republicans want to commit electoral suicide then they'd choose Trump again. By then people will have had the experience of 4 years of sanity and calm in the Whitehouse. They won't be in a hurry to return to the craziness of an even more demented Trump.

It’s actually quite spooky how the number panned our almost exactly the way it was guestimated (3K gain predicted, actual gain 2805)

And yeah, I doubt there would be any actual gain for Trump from that potential pool of votes still out. If Laurens and the last of Forsyth perform as expected, at worst lead decreases by 100 before the other blue counties come in.

I wouldn't be so sure. Assuming the senate stays red and Turtle flaps continues to obstruct everything, then it'll be easy to conjure up this narrative of the Biden administration failing to get anything done. And that's not even factoring in the continued economic devastation brought about by the pandemic which I'm sure they'll be quick to hold the president culpable for. Trump might be losing, but its easy to forget that a whooping SEVENTY million people backed him despite his car crash tenure, and sadly I don't see the crazies going away anytime soon.

You got to be kidding, bbc is a Liberal left outlet that claims to be neutral
No media organisation is entirely neutral. But the BBC it is still by far the most neutral major player - not just in the UK but also the world.

Republicans for the past 4 years have been kowtowing to Trump's batshit stuff simply because of the fear of his tweets and his 70million fans. Now that he's outside the WH, there will be no guardrails.

The only way is for McTurtle to trust Biden that he has his back. But McTurtle is looking at 2022 so it will be tough.
I'm hoping McTurtle will be looking at death soon.
