@BruceAndNosh

Will there be another thread?
We need them until January 20. Confused

He will make all sorts of mess.

Van Jones reduced me to tears with his tears and my DS just doesn't understand it; but it when Van Jones said the stuff about being able to tell your children once again that character matters, that the truth matters, I felt genuine emotion.

I fear DS has become cynical through growing up with Trump, Johnson, Brexit, Covid-19, university shitshow, and so much inequality.

I am just glad of the moment of happiness.

There will definitely be more threads, we’ve got 2 months of Trump madness to put up with before Inauguration, and sadly with a Senate on his side he could still do a lot of damage before January.

There has to be another thread!

We started threads before Trump was chosen as the presidential candidate and I think the period between now and inauguration will be gobsmacking as Trump, Matt Gaetz, Graham etc are not giving up. Who knows how the next few months will pan out and i need someone on a thread to talk to!

Wonderful, Biden has changed his Twitter profile, it now says President Elect!

AcrossthePond55 · 07/11/2020 17:26

Inauguration is expected to be on Zoom or some other streaming platform.

It's the right thing to do and Joe and Kamala won't give a rat's fart for the lack of a crowd. Scrotus can crow all he likes about 'crowd size', they know what's important.

It's only small, small men like Scrotus who worry about the size of their dick. I mean, crowd.

I hope the first thing that Jill Biden does when she gets into the White House is to reinstate the vandalised Rose Garden.
I actually can't wait to see her as Flotus. She seemed to do a lot when she was Second Lady so I can only imagine how effective she will be as First Lady.

Relatives of mine in the US are hoping she uses her teaching background to get involve in literacy programmes.

BloomedAgain · 07/11/2020 17:27

Are around 50 electoral college votes still up for grabs? Wouldn't it be marvellous if Biden got the lot. Wine

Absolutely! Couldn't believe it when Melania tore that all out. What an arrogant baggage! Didn't Jackie Kennedy plant it?

Yes, the threads must continue.
QuestionableDanceMoves · 07/11/2020 17:29

Gosh, I step away for 2 hours thinking I had the time and I missed it!!
I have read each and every thread over the last 4 years and I thank you all for educating me so much.
I am still somewhat anxious for the coming months and what Trump will do but for today I will celebrate

BoreOfWhabylon · 07/11/2020 17:31

I wonder if Melania will now decamp back to New York, rather than hang on in the bunker?

CounsellorTroi · 07/11/2020 17:31

Trump has accused Biden of "falsely posing as the winner". You could not make it up.

Melania is also consulting the lawyers too.

Could the new thread title include: "I'll thcream and thcream 'till I'm thick", please, do you think? GrinOr should we just ignore Trump and be dignified and focus on Biden?

Likely 30 more, but not Alaska or North Carolina.

Just heard Keir Starmer statement. Nothing from Johnson?

Dave Allen Green @daveallengreen

Even taking this statement at its highest, only one particular irregularity is alleged, and that is not of fraud

Not even flimsy

He is such a child it’s ridiculous
Roussette · 07/11/2020 17:39

Jai Much as we should focus just on Biden, I think Trump is not going away anytime soon.
The next couple of months will be full of pardons and ripping up the norms as much as Trump can. i want him gone, I never want to see his face, hear his voice, and the same for his ghastly entitled family. No more nepotism yay!
I just want to see the back of them all, but that isn't happening yet...

Pretty rich coming from someone who falsely posed as a competent president for the last 4 years.

"Senator Kamala Harris is now Vice-President-Elect Kamala Harris. [pause] Probably a good time for Republicans to learn how to pronounce her name." Sing it to me, Jake Tapper.
