Whoever loses at the election will provoke people losing their minds. QAnon will go nuts.

I did find it entertaining when he won the first time that students needed time off of University to cope.

I'm not convinced people with so little resilience should be getting the expensive educations that US universities offer if they cannot cope with democratic outcomes to the point they need time off.

Can't they just join a cable tv forum and have hearty discussions that way?

I just want him to win because the Democrats have gone stone cold crazy to the hard left, with stupid arse policies, "Defund the Police." What in the actual feck are they playing at with this nonsense, so damn stupid?

And Biden is a real hard lost cause.

Basically the DNC Convention last week was running on a "We hate Trump." Ticket. Yawn.

Me too. The Americans deserve a better choice of candidates. But Trump looks like their best option.

I thought defund the police is BLM not the Democrats?

Which President is best for a UK trade deal should negotiations resume next year?

Joe Biden has not said directly about Defunding police if he gets in office. But he was asked about police funding and said it should be directed elsewhere. So in essence this policy of his, is surely a defund of the police in some form.

Re: U.S Election 2020

I think the Democrats want to do more of what we essentially do. So less money for the police overall but that money going to more prevention programs.

Police funding is HUGE in a lot of American states. Dwarfes any other department: https://www.citymetric.com/politics/...-agencies-5186

You could cut some of their budgets and still have them as the best funded area of the cities.

But it's not the White Houses responsibility anyway.

Re: U.S Election 2020

With the way 2020 is going this is my belief


B = Brexit
C = Covid-19
D = Donald Trump wins US President
