The Politics Thread USA Edition

[Hermann]

I wouldn't use the word pathetic.

Some States have all theirs counted in a matter of hours; with others it takes weeks. Unless they get some uniformity there, there's always going to be questions around integrity.

Only from people who don't know what they're talking about.

Happy birthday President Biden
80 Not Out.
(As opposed to "Donnyboy" - 76 years & 5 and a bit months - NOT IN)

A day late with the greetings and Sleepy don't do alcohol so I hope that was a non alcoholic bottle you opened/raised in his honour.

Is that for real, or is it a version of that old politician's favourite ? "I tried it once when I was a student and took a sip but didn't swallow". Yeah right !

Better late than never.
(And out of respect for both Sunday being the day of rest and out of "respect" for Qatari insensibilities I kept my 440ml can of Bud (far cheaper at Pinhole Sainsbury that the Doha Waitrose) to celebrate England's sixth goal today.)

Donny must be really wrestling with things atm.

His Twitter account is re-enabled and he's gotten 86 million new followers in 24 hours. A twitter record.

But still we wait for a sign...a word....anything!!

Or " I did not inhale" to quote from the old rascal Bill Clinton.

No idea if it is true or not concerning Sleepy and booze. Several articles say he has always been teetotal. NYT piece herewith says the same is true of The Donald.

In Trump and Biden, a Choice of Teetotalers for President (Published 2020)

Spirits may be low around the country, but don’t expect them to be raised in the White House after the election; neither President Trump nor Joseph R. Biden Jr. partakes in alcohol.

He has an exclusivity deal with truth social, so has to post everything on there first and can't post it elsewhere for 6 hours.

I'm surprised you're not on truth social. Seems more your scene.
