Also on CNN - Biden to speak soon.

Jaichangecentfoisdenom · 07/11/2020 02:56

Darn it. Just noticed Biden's middle name. I will think of him as a little tap (faucet) from now on Smile

That guy was in Friends. He was Phoebe's policeman boyfriend, who likes to shoot birds.

JEESUS! Gary why?!! 😂😢

showmethegin · 07/11/2020 03:28

I am up. I have just told DP I am gonna cuddle down on the sofa tonight so I can watch this. I'm refuse to miss Biden or any kind of mad trump statement.

showmethegin · 07/11/2020 03:29

He's bamboozled as to why I'm so obsessed. I said it's like a football game that goes on for 46 hours 👏🏼

showmethegin · 07/11/2020 03:29

Or 76 hours even!

There have been accusations of dead people voting.
I'm concerned about the validity of the votes of those who were alive on 3rd November but die waiting for a result...

lyralalala · 07/11/2020 03:35

Biden's motorcade has left his home apparently.

Kamala Harris is also at the Chase Center as well.

I know it's morbid, but I always think about people who must have been desperate to see America recover from the Trump era, but who died before they could see it happen: RBG, John Lewis, John McCain. I feel sorrowful thinking they died without knowing.

If they take much longer Trump will start talking about all the people who are now eligible to vote who'd have voted for him

Anyone noticed that the republican commentator on CNN is wearing a purple tie (as opposed to red) for the first time...

Well spotted!

His face last night after Trump's speech was an absolute picture.

lyralalala · 07/11/2020 03:42

PA counters are packing up for the night and coming back tomorrow...

BlueCatRedCat · 07/11/2020 03:42

PA election guy just said the results are "all going in the right direction". Not sure saying stuff like that is very prudent!

At first I thought he meant the count, but then saying "It's obvious where it's going" is really not wise!
DeRigueurMortis · 07/11/2020 03:46

@lyralalala

Yes his face was one of shell shock after the Trump rant.

You could almost see his brain working as to how on earth to give a republican response to that.

showmethegin · 07/11/2020 03:47

@BlueCatRedCat I really agree. We were sitting in Greece in the middle of a tropical cyclone when we heard RBG had died. DP said to me "your favourite woman in the world has died". She has changed the world, for all of us. I am a total atheist but I hope she's up there watching this ❤️❤️❤️

BlueCatRedCat · 07/11/2020 03:49

They are discussing the remarks now on CNN. Yes, obviously it's clear where it's going, but you have a load of conspiracy nuts hanging on your every word and action who are just waiting for a slip up..

showmethegin · 07/11/2020 03:52

Slightly soppy warning to what I'm gonna say next

I joined Mumsnet when we started trying for a child. We have now had three miscarriages and are under the care of a hospital. I joined to learn about pregnancy and motherhood. Instead I've had to learn about miscarriage and baby loss. In the mean time I've learnt about my fellow WOMEN not menstruaters, I've found a tribe where we can talk so honestly about everything.

I have found intelligent, interesting fabulous women and here we are at 4am in the morning talking about democracy. I love you all. ❤️❤️

It really was!

He'd been playing a bit of Devil's Advocate until then even when you could tell he felt very uncomfortable with the accusations, but the "WTF am I supposed to say to that?!" look on his face was something else.

Hello all 👋

I’ve been following this thread and it’s very informative and entertaining, does anyone actually know when Biden is going to make his speech Daily mail says it’s delayed and I’m tired lol

lyralalala · 07/11/2020 03:55

This is clever.

This is "we're thinking about you and what you need"

As opposed to Trump's tantrumming.

BlueCatRedCat · 07/11/2020 03:57

Biden speaking a message of reconciliation and hope. Now that's presidential.
