It's self-destruction mode at this point. He has no one to keep him in check and most of this campaign and White House staff are just buying their time till January. They know they're on the Endeavour just waiting for the Black Pearl and Flying Dutchman to obliterate them in November.Tweet

Nope. Ancestry is Irish.Is Biden Dutch?
I see what you did there.Is Biden Dutch?
I see what you did there.
the remaining 74 percent is against him or neutral?How about a quarter?
61% voter turnout (at last presidential election) x 42% average polls support for Trump = 26%
Against him or didn’t votethe remaining 74 percent is against him or neutral?
You take that back!Nope. Ancestry is Irish.
American Presidents of Dutch descent:
Van Buren
Teddy Roosevelt
FDR
Think I heard something about the Bushes having some Dutch roots too.
In Diana Jones - Ad-ventures into the bush. 6.9 IMDBThere is a NSFW joke somewhere in @Redplane 's post, but I'll be damned if I'm going to venture into the bush to root it out.
It wouldn't be NSFW in the Netherlands.There is a NSFW joke somewhere in @Redplane 's post, but I'll be damned if I'm going to venture into the bush to root it out.
It's not just of the moment. I remember about 7 years ago as a forum mod having to patiently explain to an American that no I wasn't restricting his second amendment rights by limiting his posting on a private forum.Freedom of speech is one of the most commonly misused terms of the moment.

Nicely doneHe was shooting his mouth off?
You sir get a gold star.He was shooting his mouth off?
Very true @GlastonSpur on this point we do agreeThe whole notion of 'discovery' in this context is Euro-centric to begin with, because there were people who has been living there for thousands of years of before Columbus arrived. I'm sure they didn't need a 'discovery' by Columbus to validate their existence.
Very well doneHe was shooting his mouth off?
Trump has such a self-pitying, paranoiac, whining, victim mentality.
It sounds insane, but then again it makes perfect sense.What happens if Trump is re-elected?
We'll enter a long American winter. He will intensify his rhetoric and continue his attacks. He has already leveraged the judicial system to his advantage and that will only continue. He will probably get rid of Mike Pence and install Ivanka as his VP during the 2nd or 3rd year (of his 2nd term) - then he will resign a few months before the election in order to nominate his daughter on behalf of the party.
@SirAF confirmed as filthy bourgeois Dagens Næringsliv reader.
I'm a socialist, I don't know of any other Norwegian business papers
To be fair, I didn't specify which one so you must have been snooping in there as well
Good saveI'm a socialist, I don't know of any other Norwegian business papers
Native speaker actually, wasn't he?Nope. Ancestry is Irish.

Yep. If Trump wins, I'm not 100% sure there's only one America by the time retire. I'm 95% sure, but that 5% is scary. Of course, how would you even divide it, when the political divide is more about rural/urban than strictly geographical (as in states). Maybe it's more likely that the US has a slow descent into semi-authoritarianism.Good save
That quote though, the scary thing is that I find it perfectly plausible.
Lots of golf I’d imagine.Just thinking if say Trump loses the election by a landslide and possibly without doubt a Biden win, what will Trump do in the intervening months till the inauguration? I can't recall what most former Presidents have done.
That's correct! More or less. Dutch was his first language, though of course he was still born in the US.Native speaker actually, wasn't he?
(Focusing on the real issues here!)
He'll get a big red stamp with "ECK SECK CUE TIF ORDER" written on it and go berserk with every piece of paper put on his desk.Just thinking if say Trump loses the election by a landslide and possibly without doubt a Biden win, what will Trump do in the intervening months till the inauguration?

Well, the last president to lose a reelection campaign was Bush senior in 1992 - the rules of the game have changed a lot since then. Hopefully Trump would just do nothing.Just thinking if say Trump loses the election by a landslide and possibly without doubt a Biden win, what will Trump do in the intervening months till the inauguration?

He won't care if it's a landslide defeat and without doubt. He'll deny both of those things, refuse to concede, launch a thousand law-suits ,dog-whistle the far-right militias and call on both the police and military to back him.Just thinking if say Trump loses the election by a landslide and possibly without doubt a Biden win, what will Trump do in the intervening months till the inauguration?
