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

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

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

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 [HASHTAG]#135[/HASHTAG] 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.

Go and chill out, listen to some Cure 12" ers and read my post again.

Hopefully you will understand it second time round.
