Re: Breaking - Joe Biden wins US presidential election

We've heard all this "disappointed in Trump" stuff before - but so far around 72 million USA citizens have voted for him.
72 million!
Last time around just under 63 million voted for Trump.

Since covid was a thing well before this election I think it's safe to say that your average American isn't that dissapointed in the way Trump has handled the pandemic.

It may interest you to know that I am not one of the people who think the USA is wonderful, so much so that despite travelling a lot, the USA is one place I refused to visit.
I don't care who their president is, but I do feel that the people deserve somebody who puts their needs ahead of what he wants.

Remember David Cameron who believed we would never vote for Brexit...then fell flat on his face when we did & had to abandon his position as prime minister?
At least Cameron had the decency to admit he was mistaken. Trump just can't take being beaten so seems to have been hiding on the golf course ever since. I thank god we have never had a PM as bad as Trump!

Well our difference of opinion won't matter to either of us, unless you are planning to emigrate to the USA!

I would not emigrate to the USA while I have a place where the sun don't shine. I've spent short periods of time living and working in a number of places and I would NEVER want to even visit anywhere there, even for a short time, again.

As for effects on us over here --- I wish.

Binman is rabidly anti English as is evident from his track record. Even worse are the creatures using him as a front.

Did the people of the USA vote for Biden because his name was not Tump?

I'd suggest that both Theresa May and Tony Blair could be considered to have been worse, for a number of reasons.

Let's wait for all those postal votes (supposedly in favour of Trump) that were found in the dusty corers of sorting offices, ditches, levees, and various other hidey holes are counted
