Why is this even close? Wtf are you doing, America? 


Loads of white America is shit. They’re not going to pay any attention to Guardian writers in London townhouses sipping red wine and tapping out 800 words about what a prick Trump is

Correct , if that fud gets back in do we blame the arseholes who voted for him or the democrats who couldn’t get a decent candidate sorted out ?

They shouldn't need to - just look at the guy. Look at him! He's an utter ****ing cretin.

This is going to get messy.

 

Disappointing to wake up to find out that more than 60 million people voted for him . 

Not surprising for a basket case country.

Unfortunately when you see the comments on social media from Trump supporters you just despair at the utter white trash.

 

The inbreeding in these mutants must keep them voting for republicans no matter what their so called leader does.  They have it ingrained in their psyche that voting democrats are some socialist monster determined to take all their money away in taxes.  Their president spent $750 in taxes yet got the most expensive healthcare for so called coronavirus while joe punter could lose their job and have no insurance.

 

I used to see the U.S. as a place to visit, but I don't think I could stand to be in the same room as these lunatics.

The Democrats must be thanking their lucky stars for Covid because without it, Trump would have pissed this election. What a thick, stupid country.

Trump has Pennsylvania in the bag. He will win the election.

 

America is the home of the ******.

 

The bitter tears on CNN are hilarious, they will have their coronavirus count back on screen soon to cheer themselves up.

How anyone thought this would be a Biden landslide victory is beyond me.

Look at the voting results in the UK and USA the past four years.

The left delude themselves time and again and end up with a slap in the chops from the electorate.

It wasn't just the left, the pollsters had Biden leading in enough swing states to secure victory. After getting it wrong in 2016 you would expect them to improve their methodology, but they seem to have failed again.

I'd say Trump has lost, why else would you come out with such bile. 

Or he is scared of losing. 

Plenty of people were saying he would not let go of power easily.  This is a sign of this.

All roads lead to Gorgie

What a depressing situation to wake up to but oh so predictable. 

 

Some even saying Trump catching covid has helped him to gain votes, crazy!

Something smelly about that whole episode?

The left only speak to each other. The cliche of the echo chamber was invented for them. It should be obvious by now but apparently not

The narrative on the US news outlets is re PA but I think it’s still too big an ask. Wisconsin is the one I’m looking at, should close as postals are counted.

 

Its going to the wire.


We should hear re Wisconsin soon.

 

If you’re wanting a punt, do so very soon.

Wisconsin has updated and Biden takes a small lead.

Surely if Trump wins, the USA will finalise its status as a third world country?

 

So many Americans appear to have at least another 100 years of evolution still to go through.

Turkeys have voted for Christmas again. Better get used to 4 more years of Tweeting.. 
 

Cannot get my head around how 60 million people voted for Trump AFTER the last four years.

Sorry mate 280 Trump, at least. 

 

Trumps on 213 and will win 

Georgia 16

Michigan 16

N. Carolina 15

Pennsylvania 20

 

Could possibly win Nevada (6) and Wisconsin too (10) but doesn't need them.

It's all going to come down to PA, isn't it? Biden must need about three-quarters of the postal vote, probably slightly beyond him, I'd have thought.

The SNP will win the next Scottish Election and the Tories will win the next UK election, despite what's happened the last few years and especially this year, with the deliberate killing of thousands of eldery by both parties.

 

People don't base their voting on policies or what's happened politically. They will always vote for the same party / individual, no matter what.

If Biden wins Wisconsin, isn’t he one state away from winning outright? I can’t work this out 

Biden needs Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin and Michigan

No idea what that is. I’m watching it unfold live on TV now. Nobody (apart from Tramp) is saying theres a clear cut winner yet.

That country is beyond repair, isn't it. In amongst all the shock at how a country could possibly vote for someone like him in droves, it's worth remembering the country is a hotbed of rampant patriotism, individualism and a complete ignorance about the rest of the world. Trump represents a lot of them and the country has issues which run a lot deeper than him.

When do you think all votes will be in.
