It still looks fairly close but I dont know if their college system has votes to be declared that make a Trump win inevitable.
To me it seems incredible that although Biden has the popular vote Trump can win.
Overall I find myself ,like I'm sure many others,wondering how such an unpleasant man can not only win but gain the support of those he appears to show disdain for. Apparently a representative of AlAnon has been elected to the Senate.
Arguably we have our own mini Trump who despite cronyism and calamitous dealing with Covid I'm sure would be reelected tomorrow.
It seems greed is good,more important than honesty and equality. There seems little empathy for those who are not economically viable.
Why this callousness exists I dont know. Two thoughts did occur to me this morning though. Its many decades since legislation for equality fought for and passed,whether on grounds of race,sex or disability. Is it something that's just taken for granted as those who remember how it was before become fewer or arguably less relevant?
Since the second world war,certainly in UK, we have had a welfare state and social care etc. Despite lots of legislation and political correctness im not sure anything has really changed on the ground level. There is a veneer of protection against discrimination but when you look closely things havent changed beyond recognition. Arguably despite endless Democrat/Labour rhetoric groups perceptions of real change hasn't happened. Hence disillusioned Americans go for Trump and Brits for Brexit. I know it's not as simple as that but it feels as though something major may happen, even if not immediately. Worrying times.
