    From an Irish political and economic POV I'm glad Biden looks set to win really as the much vaunted UK-USA Trade deal could massively undermine our interests and likely soften a few coughs in England re walking away from the EU with no trade deal- makes one much more likely now which is good for us. My 2 cents....

    Have been slagging off mates in England that they better hope for Biden win or else they'll be eating chlorinated chicken for Sunday dinner :pac:

    In the western world, the media have constantly been labelling people right wing lunatics that support Trump, Brexit and now even anti lockdown people.

    The polls are never accurate because people are afraid of been labelled right wing lunatics, extremists etc.

    But the actual votes show a lot more support on such issues.

    Perhaps it’s time for some real analysis on why such splits exist instead of just throwing labels around.

    For the record, I am not a fan of Trump or Brexit. But we need to acknowledge that approx 50% of the population are.

    There was someone on CNN not so long ago basically saying this, if Biden wins it’s not about chest pumping and celebrating but acknowledging that the country is almost equally split and looking to fix that.

    I would consider myself a centrist but it feels like there is no place for that anymore, you have to pick a side and go as far left/right as you can.

    A person I worked with said something very interesting a few weeks ago... Doesn't matter what the topic or belief is you will always have have a 50/50 split (or there abouts)

    Corona exists. Corona doesn't exist.
    You should wear a mask. You shouldn't wear a mask.
    Trump should win. Biden should win.
    Yes to abortion. No to abortion.
    God exists. It's all lies.

    ...because mail-in voters are overwhelmingly democrat dumb ass.

    He knows. Hence his rhetoric for months. He's a buffoon, but he's played his dirty cards as best he could and he'll keep doing so.

    It might be Trump. It might be Biden. But this is getting very entertaining haha.

    I've genuinely not been this entertained since I seen Independence Day for the first time back in the 90's.

    A lot of strange spikes happened in the counting around 4:30am in Bidens favor. If you look at the graphs it is almost a straight line up, especially the Wisconsin graph which had a big spike and looks like from that point the were no more trump votes which is fishy as hell.

    Vote tampering?

    It's the power of social media to propagate propaganda on the kind of scale never possible in all of human history to date. And when you've one side willing to lie and cheat constantly and the other trying to play by the rules it ends up really skewing things. I don't think 50% of people are right wing lunatics, but 50% of people have shown themselves capable of being taken in by constant bombardment with false narratives and end up voting for what the right wing lunatics they want because of Hillary's emails or Biden's son or bendy bananas or what have you.

    Those ballots wouldn't happen to have originated in Miami Dade by any chance...

    Sincerely sorry if that came off rude, I was shooting for "wry" but I'm tired.

    Both got a spike right as counting closed. 2:1 in favour of Biden though.

    Trump campaign adamant they will win Arizona, it would be some feat if they did. Hard to see, everyone thought it was done but the reported count is way off.

    I've said this in work a few weeks ago and colleagues ate the face off me as they said it would be a massive landslide for Biden...

    Biden is a weak opposer and has no presence or personality.

    Americans react to big booming personalities with slogans on tshirts and caps and chanting and cheering. Even if the personality is a total scumbag (Trump and McGregor for example)

    If the democrats had a bigger personality with a catchy slogan ("yes we can" etc) they would see a more significant lead.

    That's still going to happen. No matter who wins, the Brits are getting ridden rock solid by America when it comes to a trade deal. They'll be begging for scraps.

    Just become libertarian and hate everyone else equally.

    They're literally not though.
    . they're just louder than the rest of us.

    Acknowledging their nonsense has us where we are.

    Social media has amplified the range that these street corner nuts now get.

    Trump is literally the prime example of this.

    The networks have been using the incorrect figures for the total count return all night. Fox called it for Biden based on that. CNN haven't called it yet.
