Are we allowed to talk about the US election here. I am a brit and a bit fascinated by it. Its nothing like our elections in terms of RAZZ and Rhetoric.

Not sure if politic is off limits ?

Check your profile and see how many points you have left. Figure about 20 points for post.

Just joking. I would never advocate breaking the rules.  :D

From a European the main concern is if the result is contested after the event again  :noid

Many here have the same concern for various reasons...

And political discussion is taboo here..not like it was in 2000 with the hanging chads chaos..had many a gore/bush then 911 Iraq war discussions without anyone losing their minds lol

We are a more sensitive lot these days lol

To be fair many people here are seriously under informed.

A low information voter is a dangerous thing.

No, no matter what ANYONE says. It will go south very fast. Power of suggestion already started.

Maybe more interesting than politics (at least to me) is the jeopardy facing two American Icons. The future for both Boeing and Harley Davidson looks very grim.

At this point the only reason to discuss this election is to know who believes what. No minds or votes will be changed.

Agreed but the reasons for both are political in nature. IMO.

Read that Boeing is looking to sell off their space venture.

It seems that social media has been very polarizing. I understand that the way algorithms work ferments controversy and extreme positions. My hope is that your US republic can weather it especially now that people are contesting election results after the event with or without justification.

Next quarter’s profit is more important than any longevity. Squeeze all of the juice out of the turnip then sell the husk to China so shareholders can keep lining their pockets at the expense of anything resembling quality or reliability.

The UK's Labour Party is even getting involved now. Birds of a feather flock together.

Yall gonna love this  :banana:

Trump came out 10 days before election wearing Dark Maga suit with a yellow tie and black yellow trim hat, walked out to the Undertaker song. Q  - 10 days of darkness - Q is the color yellow. Dan Scavino made a tweet that ties to 10 days of darkness, Q post basically throwing it in our faces. People still won't get it....

Republicans picked up Gabi Tulsard, RFK Jr, and Elon Musk. All former democrats. Democrats got warlords like the Cheneys and Bushs  :rofl

At this point Trump is clearly the most moderate candidate we've ever had. Who wants to bring manufacturing and industry growth back to America. Slash energy prices, slash gas prices, have a power market economy.

Even Dr. Phil came out and supported him at Madison Square garden. 

Even robinhood bets have Trump at .63 vs .37 Kamala.
