Not only does Trump never apologise for any of the awful things he's done, he also habitually claims credit for things he hasn't done - like the way he boasts about his great book -"The Art of the Deal"

Trump, facing a crowd that had gathered in the lobby of Trump Tower, on Fifth Avenue, laid out his qualifications, saying, “We need a leader that wrote ‘The Art of the Deal.’ ” If that was so, Schwartz thought, then he, not Trump, should be running. Schwartz dashed off a tweet: “Many thanks Donald Trump for suggesting I run for President, based on the fact that I wrote ‘The Art of the Deal.’ ”

There are suggestions that Trump plans to do a deal to get him out.

Just go in and escort the man out - bodily if necessary!!

Yes indeed, it is all about ‘the deal’ with Trump, it is claimed that he even wanted to be sworn in using his book ‘The Art Of TheDeal’ instead of the Bible. I just hope they don’t pander to him, it’s about time he was made accountable for his wrong doings. Biden is doing the right thing by largely ignoring him and getting on with preparations for the huge tasks he has to undertake.

He will step down and past the presidency to his Vic-President Pence, who will give him a pardon. Nixon was pardon by Ford, his Vice President.

Murdoch is enabling and encouraging Trumps worse excesses by denying the election via Fox.

Crueser48 is right - rigged votes!
Not over yet - have you not heard about the 'encrypted watermarks' on genuine voting papers?

Could we have a link to the evidence please? TIA ever so much pretty please.

Whose' evidence' are you likely to believe suziewoozie?
Patience is a virtue is all I will say.

Actually, you are receiving massive mis information. The election has not been legally called. Newspapers don't call elections, candidates don't call elections. Voter fraud is being addressed because 70 million Americans don't trust the results. So, no, Americans are not relieved. Trump has done incredible turn around on our country. He has been relentlessly attacked for winning a fair election and the legal votes need to be counted. If it was fair he will cecede. If its fraudulent, ALL Americans benefit from discovering that its fraudulent.

Why not try me with some evidence ? I take it you know what evidence is?

Whitewavemark2 Sun 08-Nov-20 17:23:42

I would be much more amenable to the suggestion of fraud if I saw even one piece of information to suggest fraud on a scale that tips the election in Bidens favour.

There isn’t any.

suziewoozie Sun 08-Nov-20 17:25:31

Every single Republican voter believes the result is fraudulent? Wow / including all the red states I assume and how come Democrats haven’t done so well in Senate and House seats? Hummmm

suziewoozie Sun 08-Nov-20 17:36:55

Well George Bush has called Biden /Harris to congratulate them so there seems to be some fake news on this thread about all Republicans thinking the election is a fraud. Naughty, naughty.

Mitt Romney, who was the Republican candidate who stood against Barack Obama, has also congratulated President Elect Joe Biden.

Oh no - goodness, it just seems a tiny bit like maybe not all 70 m think the results are fraudulent. Really!

Mitt Romney has also said that he did not vote for Trump.

He isn’t the only republican. Ask rose

He is graceless.

He might own several golf clubs, but apparently he isn't even a very good golfer.

Yes I know - I was being sarcastic

Can't believe so many of you go on about his age, possible early dementia ( no sign of that in his heartfelt speech last night ) & his memory. I know/have met so many people half his age with a terrible memory ( mostly males, out of interest). Sometimes I think I'm on Musnet, not Gransnet. ☹️ I think Kamela Harris would make an excellent President if she had to take over, but I hear Ivanka is already relishing the possible prospect of another Trump in the White House. Meanwhile, before the elections, Melania made Trump raise the pre-nup if he wanted her to stay with him. I think the next few months are going to be very interesting, to say the least.

Great news, hopefully Biden will get America back on the right track. Trump is a sore loser. Glad to see the back of him. What an idiot!!!

earnshaw Sun 08-Nov-20 19:10:28

i think we may find out that Joe Biden is not our friend as Donald Trump would have been

biba70 Sun 08-Nov-20 19:13:23

Thank goodness for that sad Trump would not have been a friend- he was always 'America First' but could see how he could screw us all and make lots of money out of us- and the NHS- and to sell his polluted and sick products to us.

Did you watch The Last Leg on Friday? They were discussing how he cheats at golf.

I understand why Trump supporters are angry that the election victory was announced before all the votes have been counted but I can't understand why people believe that the election was rigged without having seen any evidence.

The only "evidence" so far seems to be that Trump says it was rigged.

I am really looking forward to him wasting money he hasn't got on lots of lawsuits that will fail.

As for the rumours that his daughter will stand as the Republican candidate next time, that may be his wish but it is not for him to decide. I hope it doesn't happen as it would be only him operating her in the background.

Trump must think he's like the Royal Family here and that his children are entitled to succeed him. She may look beautiful but what has she got between her ears?
