    It is balanced, you're just too stupid to realise it. Didn't they tell you that?

    There are plenty of Biden business dealing with Ukraine, China and Russia to look into if they wanted to.

    Oh no that was all his sons doing.

    Irrespective of who wins,it's an appalling indictment on Democracy that shops have been boarded up in advance of riot and disorder!!! This could set a dangerous and damaging precedent for the U.K in the future....

    Former National Security Adviser to President Trump, John Bolton says Donald Trump's comments that he had won the election whilst votes were still being counted were 'the most irresponsible comments a president has ever made' and adds "it's a disgrace".

    Hardly surprising considering he was kicked into touch by Trump?

    I've never worked for Trump, but can plainly see it was a stupid thing to say, as is almost everything else he says.

    I've never worked for him either.But if I had and he'd sacked me,it's fair to say I wouldn't be in a hurry to give him a glowing endorsement..

    Are you defending Trump's stupidity, or just arguing for the sake of it?

    Neither, he's making a perfectly valid comment that sacked people are hardly going to be complimentary about the people who sacked them.

    I'm not arguing about anything.....And no,I'm not defending anyone's alleged stupidity.You made a post and I commented on it,not in a nasty or argumentative manner,more as a matter of opinion based on fact.

    From a purely selfish UK pov then I'd say trump winning would be better for us as a country moving forward. From a financial pov for stocks & shares etc at least in the short to medium term, a trump win would be best.

    For stability and long term relationships both within the USA and world wide, would it be the best? I'm not convinced. But it's a lot like the last election here....the opposition is just that poor that you can't see them doing any better and possibly worse. The democrats will never have such an easy chance again and they chose a very poor candidate to run against trump. This should have been cut and dry for them but they messed up

    Postal votes have always been iffy.
    Trump's ex.communications director who said he would get hammered is now eating humble pie on Sky news.

    The Americans are piss poor at counting, they should have got Sunderland to do it, we'd have a result by now.

    They're not iffy, they're very tightly controlled and cases of voter fraud are tiny.

    Oregon was the first US state to switch entirely to mail ballots, back in 2000 and they've so far processed 100m votes in various elections.

    During that entire time, they've found a grand total of 12 cases of voter fraud.

    Kanye West concedes US election defeat - but says he'll run for president again in 2024.

    He only got 57,000 votes and it cost him $12m. <laugh>

    Lots of people said it would be a Biden landslide. Including some on here. Wiser, older, heads said that would not be the case.

    Yeah, the father of general relativity an idiot, like that would ever, ever happen.

    Sometimes, just sometimes, you let yourself down a bit.
