The Democrats have no-one to blame but themselves.  

Totally agree 

Anyone that can't beat a narcissistic convicted felon needs to look long and hard at how they ran their campaign 

One positive however is that I guess he'll make the streets of Springfield safer for cats and dogs 😉

Just looking at the financial markets which seem to have reacted favourably to the news

Nikkei in Japan up 2.6% overnight and FTSE 100 currently up 1.3%.

Interesting for those of us that follow these things to see what happens when the American markets open later today.

The impact of this will impact upon every single one of us in some way.

Trump is an immensely popular character in the US. He won because of that. 

The Democrats have fucked this entire election right from the off if you ask me.  Allowing Biden to go for a second term initially despite the fact it was plainly obvious he's losing his mental faculties was a huge mistake.  They then parachute in a candidate that is nowhere near as good as they could have had if Biden had just agree to do one term and proper selection process was carried out.  This was another "fuck you" to the establishment vote imo and whilst wild horses couldn't make me vote for someone like trump I can understand why his message was appealing to the disaffected. What happens now will be grimly fascinating......

Not at all. He won because the left is heading in the wrong direction. Immigration economy crime are massive issues. The country has gone to shit in the last 3 plus years (you could argue the world too.) so many campaigned that it was policy and party and not personality, trump himself repeatedly said you may not like me but the country is going in the wrong direction.

trump would have beaten any democrat candidate because the country has gone ‘bad.’ That’s why you’ve seen republicans win the popular vote for the first time in 20 years. It’s a massive push back on policy and the direction of the country.

Im not a trump fan but life has gone to shit under the democrats. You won’t get it unless you live here and have experienced first hand the change in the last 4 years.

not going to talk a lot about this as you all blasted me about this 4 years ago when I said the democrats in power would be way worse than republicans and trump.
