I was in Houston during the last election - went to bed with Trump way behind. Woke up, and he had won. I was profoundly shocked.
I just hope the UK Prime Minister distances himself from congratulating Trump when the inevitable chimp on the backbenches raises the question.
I have read that it was the Cuban immigrant vote, in Miami - Dade that swung the Florida vote. How does a racist get immigrants to vote for him?
Reference the quality of the presidential candidates. We know about Trump. The video I saw, a compilation of Biden being photographed with various females, showed him to be very tactile, in a way that made me feel very uncomfortable. Another flawed party leader?
Unfortunately the Cuban vote goes towards the right as the older generation has fled a communist regime. My son-in-law is American Cuban, and both his parents fled to the US from Castro and ended up in Florida after losing everything. They would never vote anything on the left for that reason. They see Republican as the freedom of the west, but unfortunately, when it goes too far right that is where it got wrong.
In previous eras, those now backing Trump didn't feel like supporting McCain, the Bushes, so stayed at home enabling Obama and Clinton to win. I was hoping sensible Conservatives would have backed Biden. Not enough or so it seems, but let's keeping hoping.
Trump claiming victory in an attempt to stop postal votes being counted. Bernie Saunders predicted this because historically the walk-in voters are generally Republicans, which could put Trump ahead on the day, but the postal vote is generally Democratic, which would then swing the state to Biden. Getting dirty, as predicted. https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/p...SHxxmMrbzdOhpGfPKy6Y0cgUXlkJw8_KTZ8p9EM0pB3Gs
I am surprised that Trump didn't use the procedure of his great North Korean friend, Kim Jung, and made sure his name was the only one on the Presidential ballot paper.
