They just found a bunch of mail votes in tbe trash at a military base. They were Trump votes.

Could this with his claims cause a re-vote??

Anybody who has Foxtel ...if you want a laugh (if it wasn't so serious that is ) turn on Sky News and listen to the stuff they dish up...They had the cheek to have a dig at old Aunty's coverage and most other main stream media outlets of the election but continue to espouse their own somewhat slanted opinions to say the least at the same time.. Oh dear .

Apparently Biden has taken the lead in Georgia. This will be a recount for sure but one thing to point out it is a Republican state government.

So if Trump thinks it is rigged there that is to say they are rigging it for the Democrats.

Let's assume that is true, what does that say what they think about Trump

The last time Georgia went blue was 92. Again speaks volumes.

If Biden does end up taking the Oath of Office in January I'm under no illusion that his only real job in the term he serves will be to try somehow to re-unite the United States . At the minute the United States is anything but that .
I find it incredulous that 50 States have all sorts of different voting requirements and nothing like our AEC to oversee the whole shebang ..

No wonder this election is literally all over the place like a dogs breakfast ..

Yet another thing we have over them despite our voting is laughed at by them because it's mandatory requirement as a citizen ..IF they had voting at a Federal level like we do this mess probably wouldn't be happening ..

It's almost like they are stalling the counts to buy themselves some time to set up the transition. There are reports the secret service has started to move, and elevated Bidens security status to "president elect". What else is happening behind the scenes?

If Trump was smart he would do a deal... peaceful handover in exchange for immunity.

Biden just took the lead in Pennsylvania and it is a massive swing. 87% of the latest votes.

It will probably take his entire first term to do that. Trump has caused so much division and hatred in that country.

It wouldn't surprise me if he's a one term Prez ..Being 78 now , that'd make him mid 80's by the time two term were done ..In 2024 if he did one time both major parties would have new candidates but I guess anything is possible and two terms for Joe is not out of the question ..Suppose only time will tell .

Complete rubbish.
Division is spawned from the media who’ve relentlessly attacked Trump every day for the last 4.5 years. Has there ever been a head of state that has put up with so many attacks and hatred from what are suppose to be impartial news sources.

Along with the media creating division are butt hurt petulant, mentally unstable leftists still reeling over the 2016 result and their cancel culture that has stemmed from it.
This also includes high up vile hate filled democrats Clinton (Trump voters are deplorables), Pelosi, AOC, Cuomo etc.

I’m disappointed Trump missed out. I was looking forward to another four years of leftist meltdowns and conspiracy theories on trump.
On the upside the media are going to loose even more readership as their daily click bait Trump hit pieces and scamdemic headlines blaming the Govt will dry up along with the revenue it brings.

I'm sure you can do a bit of digging, it won't take long. I could run a list but I don't want to upset the MAGA brigade.

If it was any other president, you are right, nothing would happen. Time will tell.... if he loses, which he hasn't yet.

Trump told to 'put his big boy pants on'

Sam Clench
Speaking to the media earlier, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney had some incredibly harsh words for the President.

“The votes will continue to be counted until every ballot – mail-in ballot, absentee ballot, and provisional ballot – is counted,” Mr Kenney said.

“So while some, including the President, continue to spew baseless claims, our founding fathers who conceived this system just a 15-minute walk down the street, I know would be proud.

“I think what the President needs to do is, frankly, put his big boy pants on. He needs to acknowledge the fact that he lost and he needs to congratulate the winner, just as Jimmy Carter did, just as George H.W. Bush did, and frankly, just as Al Gore did.

“Stop this and let us move forward as a country."

And leftist anti-humans.

'Murica is just one war away from forgetting about Trump. Four long years of no wars has made the msm restless, they need to report on something that keeps them in jobs, and the pres was/is a prime target.
If/when Biden takes office and doesn't start a new military campaign somewhere, he too will be a target, his apparent dementia, Hunter with his drug fuelled and corrupt dealings and Kamala lurking in the background are prime fodder for those media lackeys.

But has he?

If that were the case there would be an absolute landslide victory to the opposition.

It's still borderline.

Seems many have voted for the first time.

If they don't vote is that a null vote or an automatic vote for the current leader?

Hmmm
interesting
one is caught on tape about groping and trying to force them self on to women
whilst the other has a snippet taken to fire a corrupt investigator and have (for the and on behalf of the International Monetary Fund) the investigation reopened in to the company his sone works/worked for and that the first investigation was two years prier
https://www.quora.com/How-does-Joe-B...e-same?share=1
Quote:
n 2012, the Ukrainian prosecutor general Viktor Pshonka began investigating Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky, owner of the natural gas company Burisma Holdings, over allegations of money laundering, tax evasion, and corruption during 2010–2012.[38][39]

In 2015, Shokin became the prosecutor general, inheriting the investigation. The Obama administration and other governments and non-governmental organizations soon became concerned that Shokin was not adequately pursuing corruption in Ukraine, was protecting the political elite, and was regarded as "an obstacle to anti-corruption efforts".[24] Among other issues, he was slow-walking the investigation into Zlochevsky and Burisma and, according to Zlochevsky's allies, using the threat of prosecution to try to solicit bribes from Mr. Zlochevsky and his team – to the extent that Obama officials were considering launching their own criminal investigation into the company for possible money laundering.[38]

While visiting Kiev in December 2015, then-U.S. Vice President Joe Biden warned Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that, if he did not fire Shokin, the Obama administration was prepared to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees. Biden later said: "I looked at them and said, 'I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money.' [...] He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time." Whether or not Shokin's successor was "solid" was never confirmed.[40] Shokin was dismissed by Parliament in late March 2016.
im surprised trump didnt try to take credit for the eventual findings in to the companies money laundering like hes tried to do with other things hes had no involvement in
