    Time to put our big boy trousers on, the US may well not be our ally in 4 years time.

    America is so regressive. Oh well the world survived 4 years of if before.

    The only surprising thing to me is that so many people are surprised that he would beat Biden/Harris

    NATO just has to sit by and watch as Russia takes about half of Ukraine. In 4 years it will swing back to democratic and things will go back to normal. Hopefully.

    It says a lot about the USA when an insane orange felon and treasonist is preferable to a woman.

    I think it was genuinely very hard to tell who would win, but the surprise isn’t that Trump has won, more the scale.

    The Democrats bungled the ever living **** out of this election, just gave the impression that they thought the job was done when Biden beat Trump and sat on their hands until it was too late.

    Yeah this always seemed the most likely outcome.

    Nothing normal about the US sadly. Mental voting a convicted felon but on the other side the Democrats seem to offer precious little bar continuing wars and poverty so you can see why he got in sadly

    The total meltdown in the media and on here shows how strong the propaganda has been.

    Their law fare and propaganda has been exposed.

    This is fantastic. Fantastic news to wake up to.

    Looking at this from a greater distance, is this just another part of the ‘incumbency punishment’ trend?

    Voters willing to switch more easily.

    We saw it here where the last election was less a vote for Labour and more just an all out attack on the Conservatives.

    The last US election saw record numbers come out to depose Trump, this time he wins the popular vote.

    The end of patience.
