Tbf, unless it can be shown that it's causation rather than correlation, that's ridiculously irresponsible considering that it could very feasibly start a riot. Torch paper all over the shop here.

Countless cities have gone against Trump. You can choose to believe that a known racist choosing to single out Black majority cities is nothing to do with racism. I'll, respectfully, disagree.

It would nice to have Rod Serling appear in front of the camera and say ".. and Donald Trump has now entered the grey murky world that we all know as the Twilight Zone".  The camera then pans to Trump thrashing away as the theme music plays out.

Need a picture of Trump looking out an aircraft window, and Joe Biden standing on the wing waving at him.

Amusing point there on CNN that while Trump was ranting about all the states that were cheating him had democrats organising the count, Georgia has a republican secretary of state.

That pisses me off actually.
No one suggested this was in any way race related except the usual suspect on CNN.
Let’s not make this what it isn’t.
That’s Trump level speak tbh...

I think it was in the case of Detroit, he almost dog whistled with his wink, "Well we all know what Detroit's like..."

Bástard.

Trump wouldn't take himself out unless he had to.

3,486 votes separating them in Georgia, getting mental.

If that was a P&B headgones I believe the technical term would be a 'word salad'.

Those polls that Trump quoted were the outliers - the average pols in sates are not going to be that far out - within the margin of error.

The ony state they really missed out on was Florida - but even then not by miles - an almost all due to Miami-Dade.

[( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

Countries need to come out and say they'll refuse to recognize Trump as president should he try to bypass the democratic will.

I know England are too spineless to do that, but the rest of us can at least.

[Granny Danger]

I’m surprised there has been no comment on CNN about Trump not taking questions.

Just in case anyone took info from that, I was looking at the wrong bet. Now gone up to about to about 45% profit from about about 25% when I misread it. Sorry.

Ah, I did think you were getting fleeced.

Looked very much like a defeated man being forced to speak due to his own ego. 
I'd hide the keys to the gun cabinet from him. 

I'd be more worried about the nuclear football.

A while ago an academic who studies nuclear weapons history passed on an anecdote on Twitter about this. He said that a former senior US officer who had been in the command chain for using nuclear weapons told him that, if Trump ordered missiles to be fired, officers should refuse. He said Trump was clearly unstable and that any officer showing these traits would be removed from the chain immediately.

There's a tiny little part of me that has some sympathy for the giant fucking man child. He's a man that's spent his life absolutely desperate to be revered and it ends in the biggest embarrassment possible for him and he just can't handle it and he's having a complete breakdown in front of the world. It's all quite sad.

Thankfully he's a massive c**t that deserves everything he gets so my sympathy is short lived when looking at the bigger picture.

Em, Detroit is 70% white.
What is the point being made here?...

Detroit is 82.7% African-American.

The scarier thing is his actions between now and the official handover. He's going to cause as much chaos and havoc as possible between now and January whilst he's still in power to the detriment of the whole world.

That's a scary thought.

He's dedicated his entire life to a singular pursuit of fame and it got him the most powerful position on earth, something that actual geniuses who devoted their entire lives to accomplishing failed to do. It's a real monkey's paw situation. He'll die arguably as one of the most famous to have lived this century and he'll die a loooooser.
