How's it all being received in Canada anyhow?

 

Now that the dust has settled and Biden is going to win, a lot of anxiety has eased meaning we can just sit back and laugh at the absurdity of it all.  At this point Trump, Guiliani et al and their antics are starting to be seen as a big joke to most people, apart from the people who are Trump fans.  They are just as crazy as American Trump fans but with fewer guns

He seems to have a fascination about calling people "Indians". He did the same with Leo Varadkar.

And he also got upset when some foreign looking English cricketer won them some games leading to him to call for proper English cricketers and not having to rely foreign ones (or something along those lines). 

ETA: Here it is:

Someone on Twitter asked if everyone attending was allowed within 500 feet of a school as well lol. Looks like he has his answer as to why this ended up here.

Bit pissed but, f**k it. Today is a good day. Brexit, Trump, Five Star, Orban, Erdoğan, Bolsinaro, Boris fucking Johnson as a puppet for Faragism. A whole decade of slowly normalising abominable and loathsome Far Right ideology.

Some of the absolute worstcunts on the planet have been celebrating over and over again, while decent human beings are tarred with being "snowflakes" or "virtue signallers" or whatever other bullshit people want to come up with to justify their own lack of compassion for anyone outside their own social/class/national/racial group.

Many of these worstcunts are angry as f**k, and may well be for the next four years. Fucking good. Right up you, you racist c***s.

Joe Biden might not be the greatest President of all time. He might not single-handedly erase inequality, racism and all that is wrong with the world.

For now, though, he is a ray of light in a dark period. Fucking well done, Joe. 👍

In the long run, if all Biden achieves in 4 years is to take the heat out of American politics, get the government functioning like a normal country, get a decent climate change plan going and shift Senate Republicans out of their Comrade Nyet behaviour, that could be enough. America's still in a dark place.

This is pretty much how I feel about the election result. This was the most important election for years due to the global power that America holds, for better or for worse. Trump being elected legitimised a lot of views that some absolutely vile people had, and him being in power and appealing to them emboldened them to spout their bile without fear of reprisals. If someone like him was in power in arguably the most powerful nation on Earth then it effectively meant that other countries with loathsome populists in them could go "if it's good enough for them then it'll do us just fine". This is a rejection of this type of politics as a whole and the countries of the fascists mentioned above will be starting to shit themselves knowing that they can't cosy up to America any longer. Boris must be absolutely shitting himself knowing that his pal Donald won't give him a reasonable trade deal now, and knowing that Biden won't allow him to tear up the Good Friday Agreement. I also hope this is the beginning of the end of political "strategists" such as Cummings with their wacky ideas about shaking everything up and throwing the rulebook away just to benefit themselves. 

Biden wasn't my first choice for who I'd have liked to have seen in the oval office. However I believe he's fairly safe, has a decent moral compass as far as a lot of yank politicians go, and will let things return to a semblance of normality. None of those things can be said about the current incumbent and I absolutely cannot wait to bask in the delight that will be his very public downfall as Melania divorces him, Deutsche Bank call in their huge loans with him that he personally guaranteed, and the SDNY indict him for tax fraud dating from just after the 2008 crash when he claimed back over $100m in tax relief. For a man who's only ever cared about himself and not being a loser, I hope that he lives to a ripe old age and rots away in a jail cell, left only with his fading memories about when he was at the top of the tree - while deep down everyone knows he's the biggest loser of all.

Hang on, maybe a bit late, but GO TRUMPY!

Trump also publicly lambasted Pentagon leadership in September, accusing them of seeking to fight wars in order to boost the profits of defense contractors.

Maybe more to do with Senators and Representatives pork-barrelling, but nonetheless...
