    enjoy your "victory". not over.

    Please explain what you think is going to happen next, give a step by step rundown of what will happen, why it will happen and why Trump will stay in the whitehouse.

    Nigel Farage, Katie Hopkins, Jacob-Rees Mogg, Peter Casey, Gemma ODoherty, John Waters, Herman Kelly, Dolores Cahill, Jair Bolsanaro, Vladimir Putin are all going to be very upset at the outcome of this election.

    And that for me is reason 37 to be delighted at this result. It really is a kick back to the divisive nationalist populism which no longer should have a place in such an integrated world.

    Not to mention a swift kick in the stones for brexit in general considering Biden's stance on doing a deal with the uk without the good friday agreement in place

    Compare the america biden is about to inherit compared to the one Trump inherited just four years ago. Biden will be lucky to just deal with covid alone, he is kind of doomed from the start to spend his time fire fighting the **** show Trump has left him.

    As a hamstrung Obama had to do before him in fixing Bush's mess. It's a well recognised trend.
    The claim: 'Every GOP administration since Reagan has overseen a recession while every Democratic administration since then has overseen a strong recovery and economic boom.'

    Economies under GOP presidents

    Real GDP growth, a measure of economic activity in the U.S., averaged 3.33% during the 64 years and 16 presidential terms going back to the mid-1940s, according to a 2013 research paper by professors of economics Alan Blinder and Mark Watson at Princeton University. With a Republican in the White House, though, the economy's growth slowed to 2.54%, the economists found. With a Democrat in office, growth jumped to 4.35% on average.

    A variety of other economic indicators, such as per capita GDP, stock market returns, real wages and the change in the unemployment rate, are also more robust with a Democratic president, the economists found. Unemployment fell by 0.8 percentage points with a Democratic president on average, while it rose 1.1 percentage points with a Republican, according to Blinder and Watson.
    ...
    Our rating: True

    While it is difficult to assess blame for the root causes, at least one recession did begin under every Republican president since Ronald Reagan compared with zero under Democratic presidents over the same period.

    Can't wait to see all those Trump lawsuits being thrown out of court next week. More entertainment.

    no it is just him being his narcissistic self. That wont wash for an insanity plea.

    Well.. I guess the narcissism will be useful here.. getting diagnosed with something would be an admission of failure so it won't happen meaning you can lawyer up!

    Counting is ongoing, there is no way he will lose to Biden.

    How's that going for you?

    From Trump on what to say, and what he really meant over these last few days..


    :P:pac:

    They're mostly brainwashed, it's plain and simple to see

    Ahhh come on, you don't actually believe that do you?
    There was a load of different reasons people voted for him. Hopefully Biden and Co realise this.
    As an example, after 2016 in a documentary,
    There was a sheriff in a small town with a second job and his wife working - and they struggled with finances. He voted trump as he felt let down by professional politicians.

    It was definitely an anti-Trump vote than a pro-Biden vote...kind of like when Fianna Fáil were voted out here a few years back.

    Biden is the guy that is going to unite a divided America? No chance. He would not inspire anybody either in all honesty. America is only heading in one

    direction anyway.

    So what's the solution? Keep on with someone who actively manipulates and forces division for personal gain?

    It will take a long time to bring people back together, it's not going to be an overnight recovery, but I believe (especially given the alternative) that this is a step in the right direction.

    Do you agree?

    Well I can see why Americans are glad to be rid of Donald Trump. But very sad that they chose Biden over Bernie Sanders, someone who was at least willing to fight for the working people.

    Bank Bailout Biden, Bank CEO Bonuses Biden will be best pals with our FG/FF, and the corporatist leaders across Western Europe. As in they do everything in their power to ensure the banks and corporations get richer, while the working man and woman gets shafted and told to be happy with the scraps thrown at them. Oh they make grand speeches about how they are doing the opposite, about how they are supposed to be about helping people - no one was better at speeches than Obama, and the working man and women were left deluded, lie to in a ditch. Which is why they angrily lashed out and rejected the Democrats, and will inevitably lash out and go red again when they realize Biden isn't the answer.

    But at least the Americans have the excuse of saying they voted to get rid off Trump. What is our excuse? What is Europe's excuse? Why do we continue voting against our interests?

    Let me guess, you voted Sinn Fein?

    So who's going to unwash their brains?

    They are there and they won't go away in a hurry.

    70 million people who were willing to re-elect a despicable, narcissistic egomaniac that couldn't give a **** about them ...that's a lot of people to convince that they were simply misled.

    This is an oven-ready rabble to rouse again ...either by Trump himself ore one of his disciples.

    Trump may have lost the election, but Trumpism is far from over yet.

    I absolutely agree, its a real problem. America is in sorry shape. (And has been for some time, Trump was just another symptom)

    Fact-check on economic cycles... this is gas!

    Anyone who thinks this means populist nationalism is over is deluded, Trumpism was only a small part of it in that he twigged it first. Even Biden had to move towards Trump on China and even bringing back american jobs and buying american made products.

    Someone less hated than Trump will be picking up his agenda because look what it did for the Republicans, they were supposed to be wiped out.
