There's a theory / rumour going around that maybe Trump will pull out of the election. His current polling numbers are poor, and he pays OCD-style attention to them. Biden is just keeping fairly quiet and not interrupting the enemy while it makes so many ghastly mistakes - which is probably wise. Trump is scuppering his own ship.

The theory is that if the polling numbers degenerate for Trump to the point where he himself believes it's unwinnable, his gargantuan vanity would not permit him to stand and lose. He would rather flounce out of the contest with the biggest sulk of all time, claiming electoral rigging, media conspiracies and god knows what else to justify his exit. After all, that is the nature of the child.

Personally I think he knows that he has to win in order to use presidential immunity to prevent his appearance in court on a series of charges, so he is unlikely to stand down. But who knows? He may have an expensive escape route planned; cut and run to some pre-arranged hideaway from which he can tweet his hatred of the world as a poor victim of mythical deep state / media attack.

How on earth did such an odious example of the human race become its primary leader? Out of 330 million americans, this hideous piece of vomit floated to the surface and became president. Staggering. Other people seem to have got used to it, and normalised it. I can't and won't.

Just take a look at this. Arguably, the majority of that appalling unabated case toll (and the associated deaths) is the sole responsibility of one man.

I would venture that Ms Clinton was a possible reason he won.
Americans voting in sufficient numbers for a woman? And an ex first lady, at that! Plus tainted by Bill’s exploits?

A great many of us in the UK and around the world are thinking how can the people of the USA have ever elected such a clown, but then there must be a huge number of people around the world thinking the same about the UK

And that is without even thinking about the economic disaster that is Brexit..Cheers
