How's this for a theory - lifted from the comments section of the Express:  "Joe Biden wins, Trump to make a deal with Pence, He is going to step down as President and let Pence be President until inauguration of Biden, and in return Pence as President will Pardon Trump and his family of their wrongdoings during his Presidency"

Probably more plausible than most of the stuff actually written in the Express.

You shock me Tim ferreting around the Express comments section

Haha. I love it! The mail is mostly predictable and dull but the Express is politics by Catweazle, David Icke on crystal meth and the Dalai Lllama's lobotomy.

Wisconsin for Biden. Now 248 to 214

Trump team demanding a recount. They have also launched a legal bid to stop the count in Michigan.

Now trying to stop the count in Pennsylvania. Desperation.

Looking to me as if a 270 tie is quite possible. Biden takes Michigan and Nevada where he's leading. Trump takes the rest

You mean Arizona and Nevada? I think that'd make it 270 each assuming mad Don gets the rest. 

Guiliani's rant was hilariously desperate.

Are there not only 538 votes?

Looks like both Arizona and Michigan have already been called for Biden by Fox? not officially over but good as. So yes if Biden takes Nevada too but Trump gets PA, NC GA and AK, as Fox predict that would be 270 each I think

I was going to say, the Beeb have been saying all day that Biden’s path to the White House involves NV, AZ, WI and MI giving him exactly 270. 
 

Edit: I make that map 54 votes giving Donny 268 total, Tim?

Think that’s right, if he stays ahead where he is leading then he’s won.

Yep you and Aint are both right, my bad, think I got confused over the stray single votes from Maine and Nebraska. .

Trump will take PA and it’ll all hinge on whether NV holds.

Money to be made if you think that

Sadly not, I really don't follow American proposals that closely as they don't affect me in the slightest.

However, I'm able to understand that rhetoric is used on both sides to divide and conquer.  We even have that here with those to the left claiming that anyone who voted for Boris was a right wing racist.  I'm sure it's very similar in the US.

Fair enough, but to put it in context, Biden's near-four decades' worth of politics and policy history place him somewhere between Michael Heseltine and (on law and order) Margaret Thatcher.  His current platform would have looked a little middle-of-the-road to Blairites.  On the flip side, the term 'communist' has specific meaning - to be one, you have, at a a minimum, to believe in the common ownership of all the means of production, distribution and exchange.  I think we can safely say, as a matter of fact, that Joe Biden is not advocating that - whatever 'rhetoric' we indulge in.

I'm wondering if Biden might even turn around Pennsylvania...he has momentum there and is bringing down that 300k lead...

Either way, Trump is playing a blinder.

Trump now acting like the big baby we all knew he was. Snowflake. 

He’s behaving exactly as millions of lefties & pinkos did last time. Needs to man up. Let’s hope it he gets over it quicker than they did.

That cartoon is probably the best commentary I have seen on the election. I admit I got the result very wrong. The problems seems to be the democrats bet the farm on Hispanics, In the process they turned off those white voters, but the Hispanics were not as loyal to the Dems as they expected. To be so close when running against this shower of garbage, who mishandled a crisis show just how bad the democrats are at picking good candidates for president and how shallow the bench was for quality. When watching the debates Biden could never actually deliver a clear reason he would be better, they just played it low key.

What are you on about now? After the 2016 election did Hilary or " miilions of lefties and pinkoes" threaten court proceedings, claim to have won whilst many states were still counting, declared that she had won certain states which were still counting and issued an avalanche of crazy tweets?

Fuck me do the yanks have a problem with counting or something? Nevada seems to have been on 75% for over a day now and that's just Vegas and a load of desert, can't be that many to count.

Lawsuits pending in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Michigan. Strangely, not it Alaska, where Trump will win clearly. On top of that, a potential recount in Wisconsin. Perhaps this will still be rumbling on beyond Inauguration Day.

Its very disappointing how long it has taken. It feels like barely anything has actually happened today.

I keep on checking my phone and the news sites and nothing. I have wasted hours of my working day today which I could have been far better spent masturbating.

It's like waiting for Rudi to sign!

I think Nevada is the one where they all went for a break - I think they are re-starting the count either today or tomorrow from 17:00 our time.  No idea why they took a time out...

To allow them time to look for the boxes of Biden votes printed yesterday.

Should be more resources for counting, knowing in advance that all these mail in ballots would need to be processed. There are two envelopes to open and a signature to match on them before they can even be tallied.

I know it doesn’t matter, but Biden has received over 72 million votes - the highest number of individual votes in US history. Nearly 4 million ahead of Trump in the popular vote.

And Trump's total is only exceeded historically by Obama's first wiining score. Yet the whole thing will be decided by legal actions over a few thousand votes at most.

The Americans certainly can’t be accused of not being energised one way or the other.

Agreed. Even a 119 year old who had been dead since 1984 voted. That’s dedication for you.

So Trumps lead in PA in roughly 105,000 with 550,000-ish votes to count. That’s going to be tight.

Bookies have the Democrats at 1/14 to win which is basically a formality

Its more that some state legislatures refused to adapt to the prevailing circumstance for whatever reason. Other states were able to process ballots earlier and reported results sooner.

That's why they're stuck on 75%. Every time they count some Biden shoves a load more in.  Or something. Ask Duckie, he knows the full story.
