What does it even matter? Policy will not change, only how the media dress it up will slightly change
To be fair the major challenges of our time will probably have to be solved by scientists not politicians.

You could argue politicians decide where to spend the money, but truth is things like climate research have become big business, so it's going to generate money regardless.

The role of politicians these days is probably overrated and they do more bad than good, regardless of who they are or what party they come from.

Trump's tweets are pretty sad.
Yeah, Donald, you're the best at monopoly.
Kamala's tweets will be nice, no worries. She even has her pronouns in her twitter bio ;)
So when the American shit stirring in the Middle East starts again and those pesky coffins keep coming and the laid off retail workers are being told to 'learn to code' the Californian male can truly rest and enjoy the majestic feeling of having defeated literally Hitler.

I'm not quite sure how for example climate scientist are supposed to fix the actual issue. Policymakers and big companies are the ones who have the power to make the big changes, the scientists can only inform them and offer solutions. It's true that there will be an eventual shift regardless of what the politicians do as the markets will drive that change, but policymakers have the ability to make that change a lot smoother and faster. It'd be quite a lot easier to tackle these major challenges with politicians doing their part.

Its a bit suspicious. I havent been following it closely, but didnt Trump win 55% when 2/3 of votes were counted in Pennsylvania. To make up that difference Biden would have to win more than 60% of the remaining 34% votes. Regardless of the mail in ballots, this is almost incredible leap.
Why is it suspicious? Trump actively encouraged his supporters to vote in person because he claimed mail in ballots were fraudulent. Are you surprised that so few of his supporters actually decided to mail in their vote?
Republican legislatures also were successful in preventing these states from processing mail in ballot before Election Day, unlike states like Florida and Texas.
Finally, how come Democrats were unable to fix the elections in 2016, after being 8 years in power, but were able to fix it in 2020 despite not being in power?

Kinda makes sense when you look like a dude with a wig.
Imagine being a poor sod at re-education camp, you got there because you refused to create a twitter account which is a serious crime so you don't just get off lightly with 3 years of huawei assembly. Nope, you got full 10 years Idaho potato field labor, heavy shit and the chairman's 5 year plan is lagging 30% and you and the other sods are told to move it. Suddenly Kamala arrives for camp inspection, open top Tesla Model X, fancy leather coat. Smirks at you, says to the supervisor 'I want he/him in my office....in 15 minutes....and tell him to bring his tool' :scared:

Funny thing is when Putin gets 80% of the votes in first day everyone are like "oh ya, what a rigged vote" but when someone doubts the voting result in USA, Biden supporters are denying it straight away.
I have no idea what you are talking about.


You laugh. We should put a poll for how long before someone wants to impeach Biden. In American presidential politics these days, it's the default. I give it 60 days for bumper stickers to come out and 120 days for Twitter blather among senators.

I dont get why people are celebrating. I understand when they celebrated for Obama, he was young, different and promised ‘hope’. Biden is 77, he has been in politics his whole life, what can he do more? He will probably start forgetting his promises during election made. Will the american economy improve during his next 4 years? i doubt it. We will see more wars in middle east? Most probably. He will create less jobs because corprate tax will be increased. I know Trump was an arrogant and that the only thing i disliked about him.
