This current Circus is the best one EVER (it’s just blooming Amazing), I’m a little sad it’ll be gone soon.

Kayleigh McEnany will win the Nobel prize for “Dip**** crazy” too.

I’m glad I live in Australia.

It will go to the Supreme Court and they will pass it to congress. The House will be voting, but only one vote from each state. It's 37-13 in favor of the Republicans - something like that.

Four more years.....

Nice work, nice try.

QAnon ?

Apparently it’s thriving overseas, including Australia.

.... but nah, sorry mate, this is “Reality” not “Nutcase Central”, it’s actually Downfall 2

I wonder if anyone will escape to Argentina though ....

This last US election is really not that different from the previous one. The people who don't like the result are marching in the street same as last time. Trump is claiming widespread voter fraud same as last time. He is unable to produce any hard evidence same as last time. The losers are claiming they will find a way to overturn the result same as last time. This will amount to nothing and the new president will be sworn in on Jan 20th same as last time.

..... and it seems a lot of non American “nutters” are heavily invested in the fraud allegations also 🤣

They should just get a life and care about their own country 👍

“Orange man” won’t disappear, he thrives on creating turmoil, and can’t stand losing. He runs the GOP, and the cowards in that party will just roll over and do what he wants after he is kicked out.

Lincoln and other great Republican Presidents are rolling in their graves.

I've come to understand why many forums don't allow political discussions...I mean I've always known why politics and religion are usually taboo on many forums, but now I'm seeing why.

A large group of people come together over a common interest, in this case Ford, and many friendships are made and fun a frivolity ensures.

Eventually a political chat breaks out, and guys that have been good online mates for years are suddenly at each other, in this case not even over our own friggin' politics...and those differences can spew outside the actual political/relgious thread and infect many other threads and sections.

I'd normally say "Stay classy", but to be honest I do love a bit on conflict when I don't have a dog in the fight, so I'll say "y'all stay amusing now, ya 'ear".

2022 will be very interesting.

Of course they would say that, they were the ones administering it, pretty rare people put their hands up like that.

With complete lack of any evidence, or even an "insider" or really anything other than Trumps tweets (tweets, seriously, where is he in front of the camera's talking to "his" people??).

I am afraid he is the one damaging (further) the country he protests to stand for...

Starting to sound like the "Illusory truth effect". Keep going. Keep rolling those donations in.
Looks like he may have another suit added to his list, sending those donation requests to people outside the US. Naught boy

it was true, then his people gave him a spray so he made a 'tweet' saying that he had not conceded.

I gotta tell you, it is a strange way to communicate with your country, holed up in a dark room somewhere typing messages on your keypad - but then ol' Don is a bit weird

What happened to the yellow hair? Did they run out of spray tan?

I’m firming on the idea that America’s incumbent President will essentially depart by stealth, not unlike Mobutu or Duvalier Jr. The “potentially life threatening if not treated immediately” condition will be an interesting one as so many super-specialists and facilities are in the US...
