Settling back in on couch with TV. It’s morning in America, day 5 in #USElection

Got a good feeling this will finish today.

@JoeBiden looks likely to win this election with a popular vote victory of close to 10 million votes. Margins in all states (sans AZ) solid & growing.

Questions for #USElection (& predictions):
- What lead is needed in PA for networks to make call? (50k)
- When a call is made how will @realDonaldTrump respond (not that it matters)? (Badly)
- Will pointless recounts proceed in GA, WI? (No)
- Will Trump catch up in AZ? (No) /1

More #USElection open questions (& answers):
- Will calm come if Trump/Fox keeps fueling fires among his base? (No)
- Will discussion about NC resume today? (Yes)
- Will @realDonaldTrump ever learn to count? (No)
- Will Trump go gracefully? (No)

“Stop the count!”

Trump supporters protesting democracy!

Even if authorities DID stop counting - which they won’t - Biden would win BECAUSE HE’S AHEAD!

But logic was never important to Trump & his supporters! #Elections2020
#USElection2020 #USElection

These are not “pro-democracy protesters demonstrating after an election irregularlity"

They’re anti-democracy protesters attempting to derail an election

Fortunately they’re not armed, but we know there militias across the US that Trump put on “standby”.

It’s outrageous that people working on the count require police protection to do their jobs

This footage from Arizona shows police inside a counting centre ready to respond as the crowd outside grows

Disrupting a count is a federal offence #Elections2020

“How they laughed at Hitler in 1923 when he marched on a Munich beer hall with his comedic moustache

Many were still laughing in 1932 when the Nazi Party became the biggest in Germany

But the blazing Reichstag & rule by decree in 1933 weren’t so funny anymore.”

This Tuesday will see the culmination of a US presidential campaign like no other, but what will decide who spends the next four years in The White House and when will we know who has become the next Commander in Chief?

Usually, the result of the #USelection is known by 4am UK time - but this year, things may be different news.sky.com/story/us-elect…

There has been a lot of concern recently about postal voting and Mr Trump has already said he has concerns that there could be voter fraud as a result. But critics of the president have claimed he is falsely stoking concerns news.sky.com/story/us-elect…

1) Just had a look thru Malcolm Turnbull's Twitter feed. Noticed that he retweeted a post related to the toon dog Bluey by its creator Daley Peterson. He's an Aussie cartoonist and the show is on Disney. #Auspol #dogcomms

2) Nothing unusual about that but I found it interesting because Julia Gillard tweeted about the show recently also. She even read from one of Daley Pearson's books. It was one of several canine-themed tweets from Labor pollies. matthaydenblog.com/2020/10/labor-… #symbolism #Auspol

3) What are the odds two globalist former PMs would promote same #Disney kids' canine cartoon character weeks apart? Dinkum fans, or is something else at play? Gotta ask, esp since globalist former PM Kevin Rudd's been vlogging about "dogshots".

Irish Political Maps

@IrishPolMaps

Half of all US Presidents (22 out of 44) have made claims of Irish ancestry. Like a lot of things in history, the evidence is stronger for some than it is for others, but here's a rundown of which Presidents come from where... #VOTE #USElection #USElections2020 #Biden #Trump

With ten Presidents - from #7, Andrew Jackson to #43, George W. Bush - Antrim is the county boasting the most presidential ancestry. In each case, the ancestors were themselves descended from settlers from the Ulster Plantation in the 17th century.

Many people in Ulster are very proud of this part of their heritage. There are a number of sites in Antrim related to their famous descendants, including Andrew Jackson's parents' cottage in Boneybefore.

1/10: A win for #JoeBiden in the #USElection next week would be good for the overall interests of #UK but problematic for the #BorisJohnson government. How would the arrival of a Biden administration affect British #foreignpolicy? A thread..

2/10: As the song says, it ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it. Not all #Trump foreign policy was bad (though much was). He made an important call on #China. But he has no idea of the common good, squandered American leadership & damaged alliances & institutions.

3/10: #Biden would be a reversion toward the norm. Unexciting perhaps, but needed & welcome. But he would not mean wholesale change in #US foreign policy. The pressures of #COVID19, political polarisation & economic dislocation remain. As will the tough geopolitical environment.

1. I’m gunna go mad obsessively Twitter-following the election = anxiety and apocalyptic theories in why Trump will win.

I am now Panicked by the entry of energy policy in the mix. Our nightmare on climate change ensures that.

Recommendation: podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/com…

2. @TimAlberta is a political journo steeped in GOP politics. A must follow, but jeez, writing Biden’s victory analysis before the election makes my Irish bones ache. Lovely piece of writing, and interesting.

3. LOVE IT! Ivanka & Jared work for the Trump Swamp Family. Fine for the boss to maliciously throw baseless mud that Biden is head of a crime family & must be indicted. But tie THEM to Trump’s anti-NY invective & they’ll SUE!!! (Trump can’t be sued for defo while in office.)

.@realDonaldTrump and @Nigel_Farage share a fervour, a following and a friendship.

Ahead of the #USElection, the Brexit Party leader gives us the inside track - does his friend have the winning hand or are the odds stacked against him?

~thread

"He has a remarkable way of dealing with people individually."

In the first episode of our new three-part podcast #TheTrumpCard, @Nigel_Farage tells @christopherhope how he secured a direct line to the White House.

🎧 Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…

"He was treated as a joke when he announced in 2015 he would run for president. But who’s laughing now? He’s beaten the pollsters, defied the media, taken over the Republican Party and united it"

A country's internet is shut down, 82 million people's access to the outside world is denied, their work, their families, all separated.
