That's probably where 45 got the idea from.

Biden's now ahead in Pennsylvania. We've reached the "Windows dialogue box stuck at 98%" part.

Every time I see it on a map, I realise how I always forget how large that state actually is.

For the first time in about four and half years there's something positive happening. This feels so good.

While it’s a relief it’s ended up not as close as it first appeared, it’s disconcerting that 70m people still voted for Trump despite what’s happened over the last four years.

I just hope the nation can now heal and undo all the damage done.

I think some people voted for Trump but quite a lot just voted Republican in spite of him. The opposition to anything that smacks of any kind of socialism seems to run pretty deep over there.

Particularly in Cuban immigrant communities in Florida. The Republicans loved created ads equating Biden with Morales and Castro.

Facebook is full of Trump and Biden supports slagging each other off. Some Trump supporters are convinced that by hook or crook, Trump will remain as president for the next four years. And they're dragging up all kinds of slurs about Biden that could just as easily be levelled against Trump. Behaviour on both sides is not creditable to either.

I also don't know whether or not to be surprised by how many Brits have taken sides in these posts.

If the election was a bumpy ride, the aftermath may be a lot worse.

Somebody had ONE JOB on a really critical day ........ :)

But it's not all bad: fantastic free publicity for FSTL. I hope they pick up lots of new customers.

Even funnier, 45 went ahead and did the news conference there anyway.

*Seventies British workplace sitcom jingle*

"Ah! Giuliani! Just the man. In advance of my no doubt completely inevitable win and to send the scurrilous rumours of a Biden victory packing, I've decided that we must hold a big press conference in Philadelphia. This conference will take place at Four Seasons, Philadelphia, part of a large upscale hotel chain with regal furnishings befitting my proclamations. Incidentally at the same time you will be able to pop next door and pick up my audit books from my very secret Audit Book Depository, books that must quickly be burnt unwitnessed by the IRS lest they reveal my glaring financial irregularities."

"Yes sir, irregularities sir."

"On an unrelated note I've also decided to lay in some celebratory victory shrubbery to mark the White House lawn in a tasteful floral arrangement of my big face smiling. I'd like you to go down to the Four Seasons Total Landscaping firm in Philadelphia and place an order. Incidentally at the same time you will be able to pop next door and pick up my adult books from the very discrete Adult Book Depository, books that must be bought on the hush hush unwitnessed by any press lest they reveal my glaring sexual irregularities."

"Yes sir, big face irregularities sir."

"Now I know that you're a craven lap-dog buffoon of low intelligence Giuliani, but I imagine that organising your underlings to manage these two simple and quite distinct tasks will be within even your feeble capabilities."

"Yes sir, absolutely sir!"

*Cut to etc.*

"GIULIANI!!!!!!!"

I was watching this stream I found from the "Stop The Steal" Facebook group. It was just after Biden had been called and their analysis was running the Corbyn defence of a "hostile media". There was loads of other bollocks in there, too, but they also seemed quite bemused by the location.

I would absolutely love if Trump ran again in 2024 as he would most likely have to be independent. Would massively split the Republican vote

Nah, Trump will be irrelevant in 2024 with a shockingly small amount of people willing to admit they supported him.

There'll be a new right leaning totem pole to dance around.

A thought just occurred to me. Maybe the booking was made deliberately as a small act of rebellion by a White House staffer who's had to put up with all that crap for four years.

Trump campaign cuts ties with attorney Sidney Powell after bizarre election claims.

Wait! What? Just because they're a different flavour of bizarre from The Don's???

Or maybe he doesn't want to be out-bizarred.
