    My first and possibly only contribution to this thread.
    A Trump defeat will lead to the demise of Boris Johnson and his neocon politics.

    Meadows saying that the US are giving up trying to control the virus, and Kushner saying this. It's really looking like they're trying to get the hell out.

    In another major blow to The Orange Man and his hopes of re-election, Amazon have removed their 'sustainability badge' from novelty Donald Trump toilet paper! Probably fake poos?

    Yes, the tension is really mounting. Just remember..... 'Nothing can stop what's coming ��'

    (I will be really disappointed if 'the thing' turns out to be that laughable scam Hunter Biden laptop flop, or Rudi with his right hand down his Y fronts on Borat 2?)

    Phew, Tucker's got them back and had apparently kept copies all along. Can't wait for the next breathless installment from the man on Fox News who Fox News says reasonably minded people shouldn't believe.

    I guess that doesn't rule out several posters on here though!

    Just in the nick of time. Hope he hasn't ruined the surprise element of the October Surprise. That would be a shame.

    I still have a dread that come this time next week, Trump will be President for another four years with the prospect that he will be looking into ways he can extend his tenure beyond that, but this does sound like a desperate Politician who knows he is losing;-

    Just take in what he is saying there - how can anyone support someone who talks like that?

    I think we'll be lucky if we know this time next week.

    I'm talking about a situation where Biden concedes a Trump victory - I still think there's a chance that will happen because, just like in this country, there, apparently, are plenty who vote Republican/Conservative who are too embarrassed to admit it when asked by polling companies, the media etc. before the election.

    Don't worry, there is zero chance that Biden will concede next weekend.

    The Guardian rolling US election blog this evening:

    Donald Trump’s campaign rallies may have led to 30,000 additional confirmed cases of Covid-19, and likely resulted in more than 700 deaths overall, according to a Stanford University paper posted online this weekend.

    I wonder if they got their postal votes in first?

    It's been very quiet here recently. I thought the Trump Devotee Squad would be cranking out the disinformation, but perhaps they've jumped ship at the last moment.

    Now let's sit back and watch the show. You can't stop what's coming.

    Something from David Squires (excellent again) to pass the time while we wait for 'what's coming':

    Re: The Donald Trump thread

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...s-polls-update

    Samer S Shehata, an associate professor of Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma, writes for us this morning on what he says is the real reason Trump is terrified to lose the presidency: fear of prosecution.

    If Trump loses the election, there may be calls to investigate and prosecute him for possible crimes involving obstruction of justice, violating the emolument clause of the constitution, and/or tax fraud, among others. Citizen Trump would face investigation without the luxury of “executive privilege” or the legal chicanery of the attorney general, William Barr, who has acted more like Trump’s personal lawyer than the nation’s top law enforcement official, to protect him. Accordingly, Trump has even more reason to lie, cheat and sow discord in order to retain office, because losing the White House could land him in court or even behind bars.

    Although special prosecutor Robert Mueller did not produce a smoking gun proving Trump conspired with Russia in the 2016 election, he clearly stated that the investigation did not exonerate Trump of wrongdoing. After the investigation, over a thousand former federal prosecutors from both parties signed a letter stating that Trump’s conduct as described in the investigation would warrant “multiple felony charges for obstruction of justice” were it not for the Office of Legal Counsel’s policy of not indicting a sitting president.

    More recent criticisms of Mueller from top aides within the investigation allege Mueller did not go far enough in exposing collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. At the very least, there is a strong case that Trump obstructed the investigation. After he leaves office there will be vocal calls to get to the bottom of Russian election interference, his campaign’s alleged collusion, and to hold the former president accountable for obstruction of justice. The outcome could very well be a subpoena for the ex-president or even an indictment.


    If Carlsberg did post election karma....
