A Political Thread

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Of the person that wins this lasts more than a term I will be shocked

honestly if hillary wins, i think people will hold their nose and vote for her again in 4 years as a lot did today

conservatives in the US need to find a new source of votes as democrats continue to gain hispanics, blacks, and women (also keep in mind that our voter base is becoming more and more hispanic ever year as they become naturalized citizens)

the GOP needs to focus on fiscal conservatism so that they can dominate that area... as long as they pander towards the evangelicals, those that oppose immigration, and those that oppose science; I don't see them winning with the changing of our demographics

Do we do I voted stickers and badges in this country or is that an American thing?

My polling station is a small church so not sure if i have been missing out on some stickers.

Getting sloshed for this. For every state trump loses I have to drink 1 second for every electoral vote that state has. I'm ducked for Cali and NY

What streams everyone watching the election on.

I was watching the Twitter stream (think it was Buzzfeed) but found it soooooo annoying in sooooo many ways so got the good old BBC stream going.

BBC when you get down to it they won't feed you utter ********.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

watching BBC World News... might watch Fox News for fun as the results come in

 

[ncurd]

Did Fox go for Trump in the end? I heard they were even struggling to back him.

various fox news personalities did

i don't think they usually give endorsements as a company

 

[ncurd]

BBC live feed saying SC not being called yet worrying for Trump. It's not even close to being a battleground state.

Even if he gets it sound like it far closer than it should be.

Mind you just seen the Florida count...Trump by 3% *gulp*

Think my nerves will be shot at the end of this.

I have just got up 3:40 am in Joburg. Fingers crossed that America doesn't vote for Trump. Seems to be a mixed bag of results so far from early counting.

 

[nickdnz]

It's looking pretty tight but looks like Clinton has Virginia, but Trump looks like he's got both Ohio and possibly Florida.

If they did struggle to back it's not done Hilary any favour's.

 

[Which Tyler]

WTF America - this is not the news I expected to wake up to.
Reminiscent of Brexit in Turkey's voting en masse for Christmas.

There is now a 95% chance that Trumps wins. The choices they had was guy who is aggresive and could possibly destroy foreign relations or girl who is corrupt af and a huge liar and thief.
If Trump wins i hope it will be good for other countries if investors dont invest in the dollar but rather invest in gold or emerging currencies.

The media and celebrities was united against Trump its astonishing how despite most media and donors backing Clinton that this is happening . If he wins it might indicate that the media acting as gatekeepers for Clinton has backfired. People could see the obvious bias.
