    Nice to wake up to Biden having Georgia in the bag.
    Great win for the democrats, right in the south.
    Pity for Trump it has a big city in it :p

    Someone needs to take the phone away from Trump. Make him a nice mug of coco and send him to bed

    Not a single solitary word of praise for the many people giving their time and commitment to count these votes n this election.

    What an utter lowlife the U.S have as their current President!!

    The last ones to count are military votes, it could still be lost to biden by only 50-100 votes

    Averaging all the polls:
    Trump - 43.4%
    Biden - 51.8%
    Spread - 8.4%

    Current:
    Trump - 48.6%
    Biden - 51.4%
    Spread - 2.8%

    So they got Bidens % correct, but were out by 5.1% for Trump which is outside the usual margin of error of 3% by 2.1%

    I would suggest that "some" polls were way off, but when averaged not as bad as folks are suggesting (but still outside the acceptable margin of error).

    (Hope my math is good)

    yeah it was trump i was talking about so they were off again. Shy trump support was insinuated and i think its correct.

    This is the thing.

    If he had taken the now inevitable defeat with a bit of dignity and class, given the majority's tendency for recency bias, he may well have restored his reputation a bit.

    The most pleasing thing for those who do not like Trump will be the fact that being known as a one term loser, the first in so long, will utterly shatter him and will eat away at him for the rest of his days.

    He is the behaving the exact same as a child who has lost a board game and is refusing to accept defeat.

    Georgia will be Bidens soon. Humiliation for Trump.

    Seems that all but one county in Georgia has stopped counting whilst they go home for a well deserved sleep...except for one county that is where John Lewis was from. They clearly want to be the county that trips it over to Biden. :D

    Their "job" was to harass and intimidate election workers. That's why they were told to leave from several counts.

    And there is no evidence that the observers were stopped from observing. What they were asked to do was to stay 10 feet away from the election workers to a) allow for social distancing and b) prevent intimidation. A load of goons showing up demanding to be let in to intimidate election workers are not "observers".

    Im loving how CNN are ripping him to shreds the past few days. Chris Cuomo has done so a few times too. I know they may be a bit biased but rightly so in this case.

    CNN have been ripping into Trump - at least from what I've seen - every day for the past year. It's been a sustained campaign. They're the antithesis of Fox News.

    FBI have arrested 2 armed men who were on their way to the count center in Philly.

    Trump putting the lives of people who are merely election workers doing civic duty in danger.

    At this stage it seems clear that Trump will not step aside no matter what. As far I can see, it all depends of what position the Army take. Surely to **** the Army will realize that their job is to serve the constitution, not a conman who wants to dismiss the election result by referring to his buddy judges who owe him a favour? Because if it gets to the Supreme Court they will almost certainly side with Trump

    What happened Donnie's biggest pair of cheerleaders on here???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,112 ✭✭✭Blowfish


    A republican candidate pretty much cannot win the popular vote anymore, california, NY and a few others on the eastern seaboard assure that.
    The electoral college is the only thing that means states like colorado or minesota actually have a say in their own elections
    See it's interesting. What you are actually saying there is that the Republican party simply do not and cannot appeal to the majority of the electorate. You don't see why that's an issue they may need to fix, no?

    Trumps outgoing comments are awful....
    "the election is rigged...." as an example.

    Many people will probably adopt that narrative and all it will do is cause unrest if Joe Biden wins the presidency. Awful, awful, awful thing to do especially now in the middle of a pandemic with many people sick and dying over there. He never gave a sh1te about the pandemic and the health and care for his people with the novel coronavirus.

    The Army will not get involved. Trump can cry and whine all he wants but his term will end on the 20th January. The way he's behaving I wouldn't be surprised if he is escorted out of the White House on that day.

    463 in the difference in Georgia, with over 6000 still to come in from two strongly democratic counties.

    From Virginia unsurprisingly.

    There is nothing for the court to side with though, its all just crazy ranting from the depths of Trumps head.

    The court would still need to see some evidence of something to make a decision.

    I'm not so sure. Many republicans are distancing themselves from Trump and his antics. You can't defend the indefensible without doing damage to your own reputation and career.

    In Nixons case senior republicans showed up at the White House with whiskey and revolver to tell him to go.

    Same again, I predict.

    Parking Trump for a moment - the Democrats have really underperformed in the House and Senate - looks like the Jan run off elections for the Senate are going to be very important. Again shame on the Democrats for running a poor campaign.

    Pennsylvania:

    Trump ahead by 18k

    160k votes to come in from mainly strongly democratic areas - some going over 80% Biden.
