Its probably to do with either Nebraska or Maine - both of whom can split their electoral colleges and give 1 vote to the other party depending on results in different parts of the state.

His Presidential status and immunity is worth a lot to him! See how easily Giulliani was duped by a dead simple honey trap - whether he was wanking off or adjustjng his mic, what's he doing heading into the bedroom with her and jumping on the bed? - and do people really believe mobsters, Russians etc. don't have a lot of crap on Trump and his cohorts? The FBI will be all over him unless some sort of deal is done, and he's probably bankrupt again without a new TV deal or other venture. In a few years he'll probably be a dribbling wreck anyway. Not a good time to be "balls of steel" Donald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verbal Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 On 04/11/2020 at 19:13, buctootim said: 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" In other words, a repeat of what vice-president Gerald Ford did for Richard Nixon after his resignation in 1974. Quite plausible. But it won't get Trump off the hook because so many of his criminal-legal troubles are at state-level, and so beyond the reach of a presidential pardon, and so many of his civil-legal problems are to do with his cataclysmic finances, which are also beyond the scope of any escape hatch like this. Trump could still end up in prison and a bankrupt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle04 Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Be interesting to see how the US handles Trump after he's kicked out of office regarding his criminal activities. His presidency has brought shame upon the most powerful nation, he's little more than a pampered, narcissistic misogynistic facist who has taken the country back 50 years, although I will say he's never wavered from his original dogma that attracted so many Americans to vote him in first time round. What did for him this time around was maybe the Covid idiocy, who knows, most Americans very rarely look beyond their own borders when equating world events (there be dragons etc..), and the "America first" mantra , in the light of the Covid crisis, disintegrated into a fiasco, with individual states bidding against each other for PPE on Ebay, then being outbid by the Federal Govt. States that did aquire PPE deliveries had to hide them away for fear on confiscation by a military force directed by people in shades all called Johnson. The f****r will get away with though, old age will will do for him much sooner than the US legal system can get it's act together. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 7 November, 2020 Share Posted 7 November, 2020 Some weird and frightening stories coming out; A police captain has resigned after he posted on social media that he wanted Democrat supporters beheaded, and their heads set on spikes as a warning. In Atlanta an election worker has gone into hiding after he was videod, presumably by one of the observers, throwing away a scrap of waste paper - the person returning the voting forms had included the instructions on how to fill in the forms. The video was posted on social media, which incorrectly identified the piece of paper as a ballot form. The worker has received death threats, as his name, address, and car registration have been widely circulated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope something like that will occur rather than either side being antagonistic towards the other and simply causing greater division.

What exactly is 'special' about the relationship between the UK and the USA ? They kicked us out in 1776, invaded British Canada in 1812 and 1815, came into WW1 3 years late, only came into WW2 when Japan attacked them and Hitler was mad enough to declare war on them - ( and the US ambassador in London, Pres Kennedy's father, was pro Nazi ), and screwed us over with Lease-Lend, ( we only paid off their loans in 2006 ).. And if Biden is a Socialist, Tony Blair was an extremist Communist.
