Canada probably feels like they live in the apartment above a meth lab right about now.

Biden has skeletons in his closet that have not been yet explained which could lead to an early impeachment due to his crimes were committed while still in the WH as the VP.

Sure I know the house is on his side in 2021 to 2022, but it could switch sides in just two (2) years when the entire House is up for reelection again.

If he wins this 2020 National Election that is and that won't be a fact till the new Congress meets January 6th 2021.

A lot could happen Covid-19, heart attack, law suits, electoral college rebellion, another little girl complains about his hands in the wrong place.

Which would bring up his statement that he just wants to serve one term anyway leaving us with VP Harris as his replacement.
I do not care. That is the Americans internal business. As I said yesterday: the only objective Biden had to achieve was to kick Trump out. More I did never expect of him. Yesterday I just said, in reply to Neal i think, that I do not think about Biden as president, but that I concentrate on Harris, because she sooner or later will replace him. He is old, his stamina must be limited, and he shows clear signs of senility, I say that without any offending intention, just being frank. His concentration span seems to be limited already. He will mostly be led by staff and party, I think. A figure head, not so much a captain.

By counts he most, most likely has taken Trump out. The Biden plan worked. The warhead went up right in that one special bunker where it should go booom. The weapon served its purpose, now its fuel is emptied, the warhead has been spent. The rest of the coming four years is the Americans' own thing - my interest fades. As wise men say: we ourselves create our own heavens and hells, all the time. Choose your wishes wisely, Americans. Stop following the path you are on since the past years. It leads to hell, not heaven. Conflict, hate and bitterness are the fruits that Trump has sown. I would better not harvest them. Plow them under. Sow new. Have kinder fruits next season.

And btw, to me it seems I was all the time two steps ahead of your thinking.

92% of ballots nationwide counted, Biden's current lead is over 4 million: 73.93 million for Biden to 69.81 million for Trump.

But I wonder how big the risk is that the electoiate college will try to steal the election, and whether there will come violent riots or fighting in the streets, or not. A country that lets citizens arm themselves to the teeth but manages not peaceful transition from one legitimised president to the next, has a big potential problem. Trump's mini-me already talks of total war. And the EC is meant to unisono vote accotrding to the outcome in its state. Trump currently tries to break that rule, whcih is an assault on the basic institutional structure of the nation.

If the military would agree to play ball, he would run a military coup, that is for sure. Thank God the military leaders seem to have more reason and mind and brain than the nutman in the WH.

In general, the psychiatrist explains that the destruction of one's own self-image is the greatest fear that narcissists have. If that could happen, narcissists would come under so much pressure that they would fight reality - and consistently.

Never have a candidate got so many votes like Biden, 73.9 millions in an American election.
I don't know the history of Presidential election, so it may be true.

This journalist seem to forget that Trump got so far 69.8 millions vote

So it's not like every American except a few dislike Trump.

So all these polls before the election was once more wrong.
When it comes to how big a margin Biden would win with.

I have heard rumour in which CNN will continue their 24 hours daily coverage.
1 hour is dedicated to ordinary news
and
23 hours is dedicated to how perfect their President Biden is.

This was what I was thinking last night.

Trump lose the election


Some general who is dedicated Trump supporter will not accept the result and.....
Then I said to myself..this will never happen..they are dedicated to the country and not a person.

That coverage already has begun a few months ago when Biden was nominated.

Two people with guns arrested over alleged plot to attack vote counting centre
Police in Philadelphia have confirmed two people have been arrested.
An earlier statement from police said neither of the suspects had a valid permit to carry firearms. The pair had allegedly been carrying handguns and an AR-type rifle was found in their car, along with 160 rounds of ammunition.
Philadelphia district attorney Lawrence Krasner said "most elections don’t get this heated", adding that authorities were looking at "several felonies and misdemeanours" related to the election.

What is Donald Trump's mood like?
Mr Trump's former adviser Omarosa Manigault Newman tells Sky News: "My sources in the West Wing tell me Donald Trump is in an awful mood. He has a short fuse today, he's snipping at everyone and he wants his attorneys to make this right.

"He wants them to stop the count, he is yelling at everyone to use their resources, their power, their money, whatever access they have to make it stop."

---------

I think the Secret Service will soon start with staff executions in the Rose Garden!


P.S. Staff is also reported to have started looking for new jobs.
