2020 US Elections

[mexico1970]

Trump is all but certain to lose the election.

He has numerous baseless suits awaiting judgement in multiple courts - probably all of these suits - or most of them - will be ruled frivolous.

In spite of which, I can't see Trump willingly yielding office on January 20, 2021.

January 2021 at the oval office.

Airspace closed around Wilmington Deleware, Biden must be close to being president elect.

 

[SebastianBlue]

That’s fake, mate.

Absolutely no way Trump stays in the lines.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

You got your prediction wrong

Thank fuck!

 

[Elbow beards]

Nah, from 8 years ago bud.

Oh ye, just noticed, doh

No, that’s just to allow for the drone strikes.

I really fear for joe and kamala , i think there will be an attempt to get to them by some nutters

 

[SebastianBlue]

I do hope the Secret Service has tripled Biden’s protection...

...preferably drawing the extra agents from Trump’s detail.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Typical -- not a mask in sight.

I think the nutters might be put off by the fact if Biden comes to any harm, a second generation immigrant black woman will be made president.

And for the Trump supporter, it's hard to think of anything worse.

every president and VP in history is a target for some nutters out there, just the way it is.

Giving them far too much credit for thinking there, mate. ;-)

Not "all but certain", he needs to win a majority of the remaining votes in PA by 53% and he's been getting closer to 20%.

He got 13 per cent in that last batch from Philly.

Except this imcumbent prick because all the nutters love him

 

[Brightwell’s left peg]

Biden better get planning his move to the White House. If I were him I’d replace all the toilets knowing Donald’s diet of Big Macs the plumbing is probably clogged beyond belief.

Sewers should be clean though with all the bleach that’s been ingested though the past few months.

That is a good way to look at it

Seems to be some talk that the Alaska Senate race might actually be very tight.

Same story as elsewhere, the Republican has a big lead of 30points but it's only 50,000 votes and has one of the biggest splits between Republican candidate telling everyone they have to vote in person, and the Democrat encouraging everyone to vote by mail.

There's about 110,000 absentee votes uncounted, so Democrat Dan Gross would need to win those by about 4:1 which is in line with what we've seen in places like Philly and Detroit.

There's also some in person early votes which are expected to favour him.

They won't start counting until a week after the election. Christ knows why.

I agree with kaz7 - his (or her) point is that current times are unique in recent memory - a standing president is openly encouraging rebellion and is furthermore spreading unsubstantiated claims that the vote is not trustworthy and that the presidency has been stolen by Democrats via corruption and voter fraud.

It's not at all unlikely that some far-right actors may view current events as a call to arms - a "patriotic" mandate to put matters right by whatever means.

 

[SebastianBlue]

every president and VP in history is a target for some nutters out there, just the way it is.

That is true.

But I think it is reasonable to say that it has been some time since this many armed conspiratorial nutters (including many, many “lone wolf” types) were ready to “honour their patriotic duty” to “save the republic”.
