Trump saying he's going to the Supreme Court to get voting stopped.

Biden fans clutching to the idea that he might still win this.

Cmon people it’s over. Trump has done it again and you know it.

Uh-oh. Wisconsin 90% reporting and Trump is up 51-47.

Well in 2000 the networks gave Florida to bush with 99.7 % in and then pulled it back. 10 % is a lot left.

It isn’t and he hasn’t. He may but it’s not over yet.

He would never have won the primary if the GOP did any due diligence in opposition research.

But the Russians had them all compromised with dodgy campaign donations going back decades and they had to toe the line or get outed as taking money from russia.

He won the primary because the Democrats made it all about him. Nonstop coverage. It's in the leaked documents that they'd make a "Pied Piper' candidate win the primary so the main election would be a breeze. Pity they created a monster they couldn't beat.

A burst pipe ? Well that’s very 2020.

Let’s be honest even if Biden wins this it’s clear that what Americans think their country is and what they believe are the winning issues aren’t as winning as they think. I say that from looking at the Congress results and the dems have won back the house with seats still left to fill but the senate is not a done deal at all. So, the complacency charge at the democratic isn’t a fair one this time out but I think the intransigence in american politics from both sides is still there.

But did they say why those Atlanta suburb haven’t been counted ? If I’ve missed it then I apologise but msnbc haven’t said a reason that I’ve heard which is why I’m asking.

Five years on it’s pointless saying what should have been done or happened.

A GOP Congressman has tweeted at the president to stop, and that the votes will be counted and he’ll either win or lose.

Beautiful morning out there.

He can declare all he wants. It's not in his gift to award himself the election. Election counting is each state's responsibility.

This is likely going to be all about projection.

No you are not. Biden put out a statement asking people to "keep the faith". That's as good as admitting defeat.

I heard that full speech and I heard him say the words "keep the faith", but the speech overall sounded like he genuinely thought he was going to win. I do agree though, when you see the words "keep the faith" on paper, it reminds me of what Joe Duffy usually says to somebody in a desperate position.

The president doesn't declare victory, the american voters decide that. All votes have not been counted so the result is not known yet.

I think giving energy to racists and bigots everywhere is enough to give any sane human dread.

Amazing how you have no problem with the DJT supporters and their "interest" in this election.

I was simply asking a question about the pearl clutching melodrama in both those posts.

If I had seen posts with from these “Irish Trump Supporters” that were showing a similar level of hysteria I would have included them too but I didn’t see any posts favouring Trump at all.

Your response was somewhat bigoted itself by assuming I have any “side” in the purpose of my post.

But is the 300k mail in or in person ? Hopefully when the pandemic is over this stuff has made it hard to know what’s being counted from which pile.

I'm having trouble understanding this. As it is described on the main US channels, you would think that Biden is favourite to win, but Paddy Power now have Trump at 2/5 and Biden at 15/8. Most other betting shops the same. Are they offsetting?

Trump was 1/5 at one point earlier. It's just reacting to the money going on. In PA Trump's lead looks excellent til you check where the votes that haven't been counted are coming from.
