Almost neck and neck in the betting now.

Quite like him after watching a bit of that The Trump Show on iPlayer.
I think Sleepy Joe has it. Just.
Fox News has Biden at 223. Let's assume he holds Nevada, Hawaii and Minnesota that takes him to 243 add the extra from Nebraska to go to 244.
I think he then takes 2 of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania which would put him over the edge. Could take the second bit of Maine too for an extra 1.
The 269 all isn't actually that unlikely now, is it?
Democrats picking up +1 in the Senate

NYT has gone from Trump 90% to take Georgia to Joe at 62% now.
They have NC drifting in now too.
Who up.
Biden making a statement soon. Probably a "let's wait and get all the votes counted" to pre-empt anything sneaky from Trump.
237 210 to Biden on Fox
The longer this night goes on the more I'm on Don's wavelength when it comes to Katty Kay.
Trump would have been lambasted for coming out with this shit.
Saying you're on track to win at this stage, when it's as close as it is, should not be happening.
And now Trump's upped the ante.
Shambles.
Uh oh.
He tweeted this at first with 'Poles' instead of 'Polls'. Then he tweeted that version and deleted the old one. Lol.
This is scenes. Mon civil war.
Are all you mad cunts still up?
I was about to go to bed but then Biden was making a statement and then Trump tweeted so now I'm still up waiting to see if the civil war kicks off.
I left my bedroom heater on and woken up at 5am with all body moisture dried up like my mother's menopausal vaginal passage but what a touch. We out here now.
Hang on, why have I woken up again for work (after my optimised 2.5 hours sleep) and Sleepy Joe is suddenly having a chance in Georgia? Stupid yanks, I wanted a full day's hand-wringing from the global soft left.
Is this just massively in the balance still or what's coming next?
And yes my mate is "bloody scared".
I'd the anothor 4 years of Trump and a Third World War just to watch your mate get fucked over like he deserves.
It's one to double down on credit card debt...
Donald out.
After 3 days of postal vote counting it is off to the Courts
I have no idea what he’s on about.
Off to the Supreme Court to stop the counting!

They are amazing. The lies to pretend they're doing the opposite of what they're actually doing is just amazing.
This was predictable weeks ago.
No, he based his bet on the thought that Biden was going to walk it so got on the 1.51 odds or whatever it was.
Apologies, the way I read your initial post I thought he wasn't just predicting a landslide but backing it. The dream lives on.
My two half baked thoughts as to things I didn't see/appreciate before results:
- Starting from an outside perspective or a rational one perhaps, it's easy to overlook just how exciting a candidate Trump is. He properly fires up a large sector of the pop and they adore getting out to vote for him, in a way that wouldn't happen without his straight-shooting stardust
- BLM I think extremely costly for the Dems. If there's one thing the above people don't like, it's being lectured at for months on end. Tough break for black people I guess but the brutal truth in a democracy is it's about doing what you have to do to win power so that you can put your policies in place. Everyone is a saint in opposition.
I think it's mostly just that alot of people don't want to admit to voting for him. It was the same with Brexit. I bet there's a lot of people claiming to be remainers that put their cross in the leave box on the night, they just don't want the stigma.
Yes (I mean, I'm one of them, with Brexit. It's not worth the hassle admitting I voted Leave). The left might want to consider that it is they who create this stigma - often with great aggressive vigour - and it is also what causes them such abject disappointment on a consistent basis.
I work with one of them, she had a massive pop at our Irish coworker for saying he voted leave and doesn't regret it. She even wheeled out the 'No Blacks, No Irish, No Dogs' line whilst telling him he should know better.
She's a massive Corbyn fan predictably (or she was, I haven't seen her since March).
"Aggressive vigour" is unfortunately just the default flavour of discourse now, it's not exclusive to the left.
Pennsylvania not looking great for Biden, that's bad right?
Loads of postal votes outstanding.
I assume those are being doused in lighter fluid as we speak.
Clinging on to hope.
What has Trump actually done in his four years? He had the travel ban at the start of it and then .... erm .... the response to Covid?
Michigan is gonna be crucial. I can’t see Joseph clawing back in Pennsylvania
Without Pennsylvania, he will need two of Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia. With Pennsylvania, he'll need one of them. None are looking amazing.
Tax cuts and whistling to the White Supremacists
I'll be fucked if I'm making sense out of any of this shit today on so few hours sleep. Just give me the blood on the streets.
4 more years?
Keeks mate must have the rope secured to the light fitting by now.
Nah, if he's that deep in credit card debt, he doesn't see it as his money he's lost.
