I don’t.

But I do agree something is odd with the voting and I do believe in democracy.

But I do agree something is odd with the voting and I do believe in democracy.

No evidence for that, but the Republicans are trying their level best to get people believing it.

There is evidence that Trump and co have:

Tried to discourage black people from voting.
Tried to stop votes being counted ONLY in states where they believe Biden will win.
Tried to disrupt the U.S. postal system.
Appointed more Republican judges to the Supreme Court.
Falsely declared victory.

I'm sure someone will be along to point out others I've missed.

As Trump insightfully said there'll either be a winning speech, or a losing speech, it'll be one of the two.

He said that and he meant it. Either him making a winning speech or Biden making a losing speech, one of the two. Grin

I haven't seen anything odd with the voting. Apart from Trump supporters with guns threatening the poor government employees counting the perfectly legal postal votes.

Oh yeah. Come on Trumpy. Start preparing your goodbye banner.Grin

From Sky News - Trump campaign to make 'major announcement' shortly.

This should be fun!

Trump displaying his commitment to the democratic process by tweeting "Stop the Count".

metro.co.uk/2020/11/05/raging-donald-trump-tweets-stop-the-count-as-his-armed-supporters-demand-it-continues-13543070/

Trumpies have been chanting "Stop the Count" at counting centres overnight.

Except for Arizona, where the Biden is ahead but the margin is narrow, and armed Trump supporters have turned up to demand every vote be counted. (They falsely believed votes wouldn't be.)

Account from Michigan of Trumpies impeding the count there: twitter.com/polarsprite/status/1324265584696074240

Major announcement involves Matt Schlapp, who helped organize the Brooks Brothers riot to try to shut down counting in the 2000 election.

The counting problems led to GW Bush getting the presidency over Gore.

So this announcement may be a certain sort of "fun" that I could live without.

Parker231 · 05/11/2020 15:57

Nearly there!

Come on Trump
loobyloo1234 · 05/11/2020 16:03

I think its really scary how someone who is President of the USA is given so much exposure and freedom to call his own people frauds. The people that sit there counting the votes are not fraudulent. He is the fraud. And I cannot wait until he is ousted

Parker231 · 05/11/2020 18:39

The Trump campaign has lost their lawsuit to halt vote counting in Michigan

cloverbug · 07/11/2020 09:02

Nevada is taking its time. I keep going back to check! Grin

LST · 07/11/2020 17:27

Whoooo! Traaa Trump!

happinessischocolate · 07/11/2020 17:52

And off he goes with a trumpety trump trump trump trump

Do you think they will have to drag him out kicking and screaming? I wonder if the bookies are taking bets on how long it'll take them to evict him 😂

cloverbug · 08/11/2020 05:21

@happinessischocolate I'm almost certain he'll have to be dragged out, how embarrassing. Grin

user764329056 · 08/11/2020 05:43

Send the dogs in to get him out of the White House in January

SoupDragon · 08/11/2020 09:38

Someone should change the password on his Twitter account and not tell him.

Parker231 · 08/11/2020 10:23

12 hours since Trump has been on Twitter - must be a record!

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 08/11/2020 10:28

His Caps Lock key broke and they haven't fixed it yet.
AlternativePerspective · 08/11/2020 10:33

I wonder if twitter will remove his account now that he’s no longer president.

As an aside, who was it who booked the four seasons landscaping for the press conference 😂😂😂😂😂

MmeD · 08/11/2020 10:37

@MacDuffsMuff So many questions, but I’ll restraint myself. What did you say back?
