European fellow here. At what point do us NATO states need to begin reconsidering our existing relations with the allied superpower that seems prepared to spill her own blood over political disputes? This intense American on American hatred is exactly what we don't need when our mutual Russian...

Holy crap, sycophants like Ted Cruz and Lindsay Graham legit make me groan. You can't claim to be fighting for the country while simultaneously supporting the man who has domestically abused it on a near daily basis. They and other Republicans who persist on backing a wannabe despot are vividly...

LeBron James has a good one too. View: https://twitter.com/KingJames/status/1325118401820258304

The more Trump persists, the more he sounds and comes across like one of those corny defeated supervillains from decades old cartoons. Any politicians who continue to stand with him at this point risk losing any credibility they might hold.

What an incredible time to be alive. I haven't seen such scenes of jubilation since the Berlin Wall fell. I hope Donald Trump's political defeat is just the start. I hope this fantastic moment inspires people in countries like Belarus, Brazil, Russia, et cetera, to continue fighting their own...

Trump backers tricked into joining ‘Gay Communists for Socialism’ on Facebook In uncertain times like these, I find that introducing a quick giggle into the subject really helps. The brief change of mood is my chance to pull away from the offending topic and focus on something else for a while...

Genuinely not surprised that it's gotten to this point. Totalitarian strongmen love resorting to such coercion when they're on the verge of losing power. View: https://twitter.com/DavidCayJ/status/1324826939731988485

I've just heard something interesting. The Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, also known as the "Tropical Trump", appears to be jumping ship! That's quite a heavy blow to Donald Trump's support base! That's not all from the Latin American countries though. Commentators from Brazil, Columbia...

Anyways, which state can we expect to finish counting every vote first? Whoever announces next could wrap this thing up beyond any logical doubt.

From what I managed to learn about US politics in this election, the electoral college really is a flawed system like that. Why should certain states be allocated more electoral votes just because they have greater populations? The way Britain does general elections, with every constituency only...

John McCain and John Lewis would have both been pleased to see their home states potentially flipping away from Donald Trump's control, I'm sure. I hope they really do go blue.

Hahahahaha! In a response to one of Donald Trump's all caps Twitter rants (yes he really is that volatile right now), his climate change nemesis Greta Thunberg has replied with "So ridiculous. Donald must work on his Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend...

Sorry for the double post, but I've just heard about the now-deleted YouTube video where Trump's former top advisor Steve Bannon had some very... alarming things to say regarding FBI director Christopher Wrey and leading Coronavirus expert Anthony Fauci. I'm hiding the quotes because they're...

The fact that this Annoying Orange tribute act enjoyed as much support over the course of the election is a sign that the US still has work to do before I can take the country seriously again. Of course the man responsible is on track to become the first unseated incumbent of over 20 years and...

There's a real sense of "you made your bed, now lie in it" with the write-in votes. If Trump hadn't been so recklessly dismissive of the Coronavirus outbreak then we'd see something more mixed instead of a separate "red mirage" and "blue wave". He's got nobody to blame but himself for...

On that topic, the Trump campaign team are trying to halt vote-counting in Pennsylvania. The deputy campaign manager insists the Democrats seek to disenfranchise voters. Holy crap, Trump's mind rot truly is contagious. That's what Trump himself is openly attempting to do with all these lawsuits...

At this point, I'd say each and every state is important to grab. Not just Pennsylvania or Michigan. Any set of Electoral College votes gained by one side is, by definition, kept out of the other side's hold (barring a random faithless elector, of course). It's one less way for them to try and...

If you listen very carefully, it's possible to hear the unmistakable sound of Abraham Lincoln spinning in his tomb. I'm a million percent sure he'd be most disappointed at what the Republican Party has become in these last four years.

If he does this then there will undoubtedly be a whole bunch of countries that refuse to recognise his apparent victory, putting the US in the same politically inenviable position as Venezuela and Belarus. Even Donald Trump wouldn't be that foolish... right?

California was a big win for Biden, but he's not out of the woods yet. If Florida and Texas go to Trump then things are suddenly back to a tight race again.
