Maybe better not to make such an offensive comment if you are unable to make a meaningful contribution to the thread.

Actually he's not Jimmy Carter - he's very experiences at how to work in the American system having done it for 40 years. He might be too old for a second term - but never say never.

Med's post was aimed at me and said in jest, no offence was meant and none taken...

No.

Just assumed it was a game between a small group of people amusing themselves on here.

I saw CNN's joint interview with Biden & Harris. I think I can best describe it as refreshing. It's likely they won't achieve everything they want to, what politicians do? I guess what was so refreshing was that it felt like they were being honest. Something that has been seriously missing in US and UK politics for some time.It was like taking a gulp of fresh air having just left somewhere stinky.

[KidKruger]

I watched Trump?s ?Victory Rally? in the early hours.

What a depressing experience.

Why are the Republicans not denouncing this ?!

America seems lost of their leader can voted out, refuse to leave, deny the election outcome, spread unrest amongst his supporters, disable the democratic process and self-enrich at will, repeatedly (let alone self-pardon !).

Rudy's got Rona it seems.

It's so depressing. Trump is gonna trump, but where are the decent Republicans? They can't all be as deranged / morally vacuous as the Donald?!

[KidKruger]

Yes, I think the republicans are so scared to do anything it speaks volumes for the culture of their party currently.

However, there is a few outspoken republicans though I'm not sure they have a forum.

One thing I've seen is The Lincoln Project (republicans) adverts/clips denouncing Trump and his actions, Kushner, Ivanka, and other filthy players in this sick game.

Wiki:"

The Lincoln Project

Named after Abraham Lincoln

Founded December 17, 2019

The Lincoln Project is an American political action committee formed in late 2019 by a number of Republicans and former Republicans. During the 2020 presidential election, it aimed to prevent the re-election of Donald Trump and defeat all Republicans in close races running for re-election in the United States Senate.[2][3][4] In April 2020, the committee announced its endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden,[5] who went on to win the election."

 

[JohnL]

Looks like the Senate is going to the Democrats - still in the balance but one Georgia seat has been called (by NBC and CNN) and the other is waiting on more Democrat areas to come in with a small Democratic lead.

Winning both seats gives Biden the Senate (with the VP vote) and thus a majority in both houses.

[Spartacus]

In a few short days, we are going to need a new thread that Trumps this one

I guess we will need to Biden our time till it happens!

[KidKruger]

After winning these two seats (if that even happens), it?ll be a 50/50 House from what I understand with VP Harris having deciding-vote power.

Unfortunately, due to the majorities required (and, you?d have to suspect after Republican behaviours this last few months) it will be exceeding difficult to push change through. So the Biden administration may be hugely crippled in its ability to achieve as much as it intends.

For example, the ?Dirty Dozen? digging their heels in.

Complete disaster for the US 😭
