    If Biden wins, will it still be seen as 'divided'?

    Or will everything be hunky dory again now the nasty man has gone away?

    I am not the one expressing the desire for someone to get a bullet in the head. And Kempton who blathers about showing respect gives a like. Irony all round.

    In a two horse race, surely it's always 'divided'?!!?

    It will remain divided, whoever wins, as the BBC are accurately reporting.

    Every country where there is more than one party is allowed is divided.

    It always was divided, in a system where one party always loses and must accept defeat.

    How can it not be divided? There's a winner and a loser.

    It's how well the losers accept defeat and stop bleating on about it...

    Your missing the point, almost certainly deliberately.

    This election has divided the US more than almost any other, that's why everyone is reporting it as 'divided America'. The population of the US don't normally buy new guns and board up their shops, just because there's an election on.

    Seek out post #135 for enlightenment old boy.

    It's BBC dogwhistle politics for 'We hate Donald Trump, all he stands for and all his redneck bluecollar supporters'.

    Usually uttered by Trump-hater in chief Jon Sopel.

    It's not BBCspeak bollocks, it's a common headline trope used by various global sources, you arse.

    It's the people who dislike their elected Presdent who are bitter, angry and feeling unhappy.

    They are the ones who fuel the 'divided' trope.

    When Obama was POTUS, millions felt the same, hence Trump got voted in.

    America was divided even when it was a Liberal hegemony. The Democrats picked the wrong man to take them back there.

    Trump is now claiming fraud, as in some states he was ahead until they counted all the votes and Biden ended up with more.

    Nearly as funny as when he claimed global warming was obviously a myth, as it was snowing outside.
