And you could argue didn't come into it's current existence until 1991. TBH if you want to go the whole hog the US is older than the UK given Irish partition in 1921.

The one thing none of these conspiracy "it's been rigged" loons can adequately answer for me is why, if the Democrats went to all the trouble of fixing the election, did they do such a terrible job of it that it (a) ended up so close and (b) they couldn't even win both houses? Who in their right...

1. They can't impeach unless they control both houses, they don't. As the Democrats found with Trump. 2. Is this the way it works now, every time a President doesn't control both houses they're going to impeach him?

I like to compare the leadership in the UK of IDS and Jeremy Corbyn. Both clearly on the same (downwards) trajectory, one taken out by the political equivalent of trained assassins, the other you seemingly couldn't shift with dynamite.

True but I'd have largely expected that from a lazy narcissist. The ordinary rank and file are supposedly intelligent people who you'd have thought would have at least had a Plan B lined up.

Astonishing reports to see that there's now panic in the West Wing because the staff are suddenly starting to realise Trump might lose and hardly any had made contingency plans. I mean, how mad must you be to work in a role like that and not only not have a back-up plan in place in case it goes...
