It's so close I can't watch...

Please god tell me this is a joke thread.. or you mean 'come on trump lose?'

Whether you support him or not, nearly half of the US has voted for him.

AlternativePerspective · 04/11/2020 07:50

I despise the man. Unfortunately the majority of Americans appear not to agree with me.

Trump winning has always been a foregone conclusion IMO.

But since he hasn’t actually had COVID yet there’s still hope.....

GiraffeNecked · 04/11/2020 07:50

The electoral college farce will help him, but yes, he’s getting a lot of votes. Bugger.

LongPauseNoAnswer · 04/11/2020 07:52

I can't watch.

I've never felt such a visceral hatred for anyone before. I actually feel nauseated when I look at his face.

He's one of those people who personifies the saying "if you're ugly on the inside, it shows on the outside"

Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes right to the fucking bone.

@DaisyDoo09

What time will we know who has won ?

I think it's more likely to be what day, rather than what time tbh.

Figgygal · 04/11/2020 07:55

Are you joking?
He’s a lunatic!!

NorbertMeubles · 04/11/2020 07:55

Yep, come on Trump, off you fuck.

Lifeisabeach09 · 04/11/2020 07:57

I'm not a Trump supporter but, of course, he is getting a lot of votes. He remains popular with a lot of insular Americans who lost a lot in the previous recessions. He says things they like to hear about making America great again and bringing jobs back from abroad.
I would sincerely love to see Biden win but what goes against him is his age and the prospect of ill-health/death in office. A lot of Americans don't want a minority ethnic woman as president.
It'll be close and, of course, it'll be determined by the EC.

AintNobodyHereButUsChickens · 04/11/2020 08:05

I've just seen that Trump declared he had won and demanded they stop counting ballots 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

WB205020 · 04/11/2020 08:06

I seriously hope grump loses but after the latest gaffe from Biden yesterday......calling his granddaughter his dead son and then his other granddaughters name before getting it righ, I seriously worry he isn’t fit for office either. People who are undecided use things like that to make their final decision.

Anyone is better than Trump, and I know he isn’t right in the head, but I really worry Biden will lose simply because he clearly is not well and probably has dementia.

Ansjovis · 04/11/2020 08:09

Stand back and stand by, people. How this man, who can't even get the right answer to "do you oppose white supremacy?" right is even in the race at all is completely beyond me.

Biden's probably tired from all that campaigning...

Wtfdidwedo · 04/11/2020 08:13

Even in the states who have declared Democratic victory, there's still a huge number of people who've voted Trump. What a fucking insane place.

BlackberrySky · 04/11/2020 08:16

He is already bleating about his losses not being fair. What a monumental twat.

2020hasbeenbloodyawful · 04/11/2020 08:17

Come on Trump - you sexist, racist, homophobic bigot. Fuck off back to your tower and take your grotesque little minions with you!

Lifeisabeach09 · 04/11/2020 08:17

What a fucking insane place.

Brits can hardly criticise...Bojo, Brexit. Both countries are following the same popular nationalist rhetoric.

Echobelly · 04/11/2020 08:19

Bollocks, he's going to win isn't he? Either outright or it will be close enough for him to steal it by disallowing something.

Even if he doesn't win, tens of millions of Americans have shown the contempt they have for the lives and rights of people of colour, LGBTQ people and women by voting for this guy.

NonCisWoman · 04/11/2020 08:20

Can someone briefly say who is likely to win? I can't tell.

Echobelly · 04/11/2020 08:20

@Mycatismadeofstringcheese Grin Brew

Mixitupalot · 04/11/2020 08:22

I honestly believed Biden would flip most of the republican states! It’s hard to watch some of America fuck it’s self in the ass.... again. Surely Biden can make it to 270?!

TheWhalrus · 04/11/2020 08:25

@AlternativePerspective He had COVID last month. That ship has sailed i'm afraid: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/oct/05/donald-trump-and-covid-what-we-know-so-far

I think Biden is justabout going to edge this, but its closer than a lot of people were predicting. We won't know for sure until at least Thursday I suspect.

Agreed. The UK is a nasty right wing place to be.

I don't think anyone can tell at this point...
triceratops12 · 04/11/2020 08:26

Surely they can't agree to stop counting votes? This is awful
