    If you don't like it don't read it. Posters are naturally excited and so what if predictions are being made and changing by the minute?

    Predictions are fine but saying "It's done" like it's a certainty and you have some sort of insight is nonsense.

    Thing is, at this point, no one knows who will win. Saying "it's done" is ridiculous because nobody knows.

    If Trump wins, you can claim a bit of credit. But claiming Trump or Biden has won at this point is just people trying to convince themselves that they are some sort of expert.

    Its beyond parody at this stage. There were posters using that rhetoric before florida was finished being counted last night.

    These billy big bollox's could still have got better than evs in the bookies at various points during the night for the candidate they claimed was " done" and made over 100% interest on their investment if they were so sure of themselves.

    A load of bluster and dick measuring.

    I'm fairly certain he's already a Trump; not a chance with this lad. If you think Hunter had skeletons in his closet...





    I thought it was 2.2m mail in votes for PA? With 1.4 being Dem.

    Even those numbers would still have trump ahead though no? Current votes are 2.965m to 2.29m

    Regardless of if Biden manages to pull through this election has proven once and for all that Americans in general are idiots. How anyone let alone almost 50% of 140m odd people could think that Trump is fit to hold any office is unfathomable.


    Well he has done a pretty decent job in his first term, you might have had a point in 2016..

    It's almost as if betting markets aren't a remotely reliable predictor.

    ****ing hell. I just want it over at this stage. People from both sides of the fence are fit to murder each other on an Irish discussion board. I can only imagine what the tension is like on the streets of America

    Yeah it’s absolute madness to be fair. Will make very little difference to the average Irish persons day to day life yet they’re willing to argue very strongly that they’re a Biden Fan or Trump fan.

    The Irish people are very conservative though so it’s no surprise there’s a large majority of Biden fans here.

    The late late show along with other Trump haters were predicting a LANDSLIDE Biden victory.

    Was never gonna happen.

    Looking at the race subjectively though it’s right now but a lot of postal votes still to be counted. If they are counted, ie no result today then Biden will probably take it as theres generally more democratic postal votes.

    Could be days yet to be fair.

    Could be supreme courts involved yet either!

    Education cuts that began under Reagan and continued under every other government is what happened.

    God CNN called this election badly yet again. Appalling election coverage. They had Biden in a landslide all over the country it's frankly laughable to consider them a serious outfit.

    It potentially makes a difference to a lot of lives in this country.

    If you believed that would you not have put a few quid on Biden at the time that trump was 1/7?

    What’s the most politically neutral tv station?

    Is there even such a thing?

    Watching cnbc here and it feels very blue
    I'm afraid none are, including our own and the UK's when it comes to the US election.
    The only one I can think of is the show Rising on HillTV on YouTube.
    1 Dem, 1 Rep who have a record of callling out the sh1te in their own camps when required and don't have a blatant partisan agenda.
    I don't think it's on right now, they did a 3hour broadcast earlier.

    Unfortunately you have 2 parties in America and there are does who may hate Trump but just can not vote for a Democat. They are Republican and remain so. I am not surprised especially with the high turnout

    Regardless of result here, could you imagine what the Democrats would have got if they'd run a decent candidate, capable of doing some public speaking.
    340 million people in the states and he was the best they could find. That's almost as shameful an endorsement on the population as Trump is.

    Could have been a landslide.

    They got the margin wrong but were right in that Biden would win. I watched their coverage all night and it was excellent.
