[Politics] Joe Biden vs Donald Trump *** Official Match Thread ***

[WATFORD zero]

Feck me, you hang around don't you?

Although the question was directed at the poster, I shall indulge you.

I could not give a shiney shite what the USA get up to. What does affect me and my loved ones is the future interference from overseas and political bias.

I'd gathered that from your 38 hourly posts on his thread in the previous 38 hours

It’s wrong to call them thick though right?

Glad you constantly update me on my posts/votes etc, even if the majority are on bookies prices. Think of it as a (free) public information service.

Nice to see you're monitoring GAP.

any updates on this red wave?

I think he told us 'Read Fake News get Fake News'.

Arizona not over yet, tightens another 10k towards Trump, some the latter batch though more heavily democrat. Gonna be close

Then there's GA, very close now more democrat counties to come

Yikes!

I don't need to monitor, remember ?

Only to experience your input.

Thanks for counting btw.

I didn't count, it's digital. NSC does it for you

Do you have trouble getting the Tippex off your screen

I should imagine that teaching quantum physics to monkeys probably involves less repetition

It shows how you can poison peoples minds with big money and control of the media. It will take a long time to repair

It's the ugly side of populism laid bare

Lets hope in future we learn the lessons

Apparently he has no interest in US internal politics. Born out of course by posts trying to gain some solace about the Senate and Arizona.

The last Trump fanboy left in this thread.

A gutting week for nationalism and anyone who bizarrely warms to a racist president.

If you say so chief.

For someone who probably still has problems with light switches, it's important to know your limitations.

I'm sure Trump will be every bit as classy in defeat as he was in office

It's not wrong to cal them thick - your average Trump fan makes two short planks look like a computer - it is however wrong to characterise an entire nation based on them. This is the equivalent of assuming that the pro-Tommy types that turned up to London to supposedly protect statues represent an average British person.

His Twitter meltdown over the next 2 months should provide us with plenty of entertainment during lock down at least. Then we can look forward to him being charged with tax evasion.

Everyone is getting ahead of themselves imho. As much as I’m desperate for Biden to prevail, this is not done yet.

Georgia is a toss up, Pennsylvania is still a mountain to climb to overhaul almost 200k difference. And most importantly Arizona is not done (which was the assumption and required to get Biden to 270). Trump campaign are still bullish on chances on Arizona and if you’re playing close attention to it, so should you be concerned if you want Biden to win.

Biden had a lead of 90+k votes with 600k outstanding, but these were not postal ballots (normally posted early and normally favouring Democrat), these were early votes handed in over the 2-3 days before the election and Arizona has a high percentage of republicans who have always used thus method. They are overwhelmingly breaking for Trump.

They have just done another 130k of the previous 600k in the past hours and trump got a net of about 25k, so with 470k left to count, Biden lead is cut from 90+ to 68k. Analysts have said if the 470k outstanding continues to break for Trump with the same margins as the 130k just done, Trump is on course to hold Arizona. That would mean Biden would have to win either Georgia or Pennsylvania.

Everyone is acting like this is now a foregone conclusion now, it isn’t yet. Look what’s happening in Arizona. Trump can still win, perish that thought.

Not quite sure - the Tommy freaks were fortunately a very minute minority, the Trump supporters, despite losing now, make up a significant proportion of the States.

It has occurred to me McConnell and Graham are going to have a gay old time in the Senate.

There's plenty of new legislation they had nothing to do with and will happily repeal - at a price!

Anyone else find the reporting of the result tallies absurd?

BBC currently showing 243/214
Sky has it 253/214
Guardian has it 264/214

What TF gives?
