US election 2020 thread

[frogwoman]

It is foreign affairs tho

But I think that just as china gave a bit of a test to gwb early in his presidency they'll want to get the measure of jb now

Interesting times

It's the biggest global crisis since ww2, just seems weird not to mention it.

Need more classical recs.

I think asking for classical recs is always going to get a fairly bland big hitters response, cause it covers such a huge range of music... I reckon its probably a good to just stick radio 3 on for a week or so and see what you like, then take it from there.

This gets more real now.

Here, have a retrospective knock from about 1976.

Same here. Ditto Guiliani.

My favourite thing about Hendon is that Hendon Lane has a side road called Crooked Usage.

Have nevada finished their annual leave yet?

Fuck this. Not wasting time with this nonsense. You people are stupid twats.

The bickering is getting a bit wearing now.

Our bickering is world-beating

No it isn’t!

“It’s time to put away the harsh rhetoric. To lower the temperature. To see each other again. To listen to each other again,”

...and inevitably still call each other twats.

Sort your tags. (You twat ). I think that first quote leads to the wrong place.

With Marty1 banned from this thread, we're all anti-Trump. All, or certainly nearly all, of us would have supported Sanders over Biden.

Nobody does furious agreement like Urban.

Well if you'd asked nicely I'd have done so. So I'm going to leave it like that to annoy you.

Git.

Presumably someone's asked Uday which city has been burnt to the ground?

Fuck me, that's real. 70 million really tiny medals all round. And one huge one for Don Jnr, natch.

There is a kernel of truth in there, that the threat of widespread right wing militant action, even civil war that many people feared before the election seems to have been overstated.

Ignore me. Junior.

Yes, but from him, like that?

You were having a senior moment obviously.

Who gives a shit what Donald Trump Jr thinks? He's an irrelevance

 

[teqniq]

The person who quoted it which is how i saw it, tagged the FBI and said it was incitement which it most likely is. Watch them do absolutely fuck all about it though.

Yeah but he's not referring to this, he's referring to what the right have been claiming that BLM protestors and the like are up to. And ignoring the fact that successive Republic and Democrat administrations have let cities like Detroit and Chicago crumble.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Anyway, it doesn't mean what Don Jnr thinks it means. Sod the violence, where are the peaceful protests by pissed-off republicans outraged that a fraudulent election has been stolen from them? That's the real point about the lack of action right now - the vast majority of those who voted for Trump accept that he has lost fair and square and are moving on already.
