Congrats trump - you've broken America!
Proving beyond doubt he cares more for himself that his country
It'll be same again in 4 years too as trump loyalists will try to win by what ever means because they are being told by their "leader" that fraud wins
trump should be held responsible for the deaths - he has (more) blood on his hands now

Wish Biden well trying to sort that lot out

Hopefully they will now impeach him to make sure he cannot run for election again

Trump is coming to Scotland on the 19th before the day of inauguration of Biden.

Scotland: declares national lockdown from 3rd January until 1st Frebruary. No is allowed to travel into Scotland within that period of time.

well played Scotland, well played

People mistakenly think the Scottish lockdown is about COVID

Nicola knows the truth though!

And they probably don't want to get into the extradition of a criminal

Give trump his due, he sticks to his guns...

Can't impeach, it takes longer to follow the process than the time frame he is in office for.

LMAO did you see in the news about Julian Assange? They said he doesn't have to be extradited. What a mess though. I think its fair, America wont release that woman who run over Harry Dunn.

Not if the VP and the cabinet vote him out then the VP is put in charge of the country

VP has only spoken against him once in the last four years of his lunacy. Very unlikely to happen. Furthermore, according to Bolton who Trump fired a few years ago, jus ton Sky News an hour ago, he says you end up with two presidents for a time which would not be justified in doing the impeachment as it would not improve the situation.

Scroll halfway down to the blond white house press Secretary, she does a quick speech and almost legs it away from the podium without taking any questions.

Invoke the 25th!

Invoke the 25th!

I honestly think they want to do it for the sake of saying they did.

Vice president already declared he won't back it. However there is of course a very serious question to ask, at what point of distrust do you you chuck out a president with little to no notice. I think things are safe and though. Previous security guy Bolton said military won't be do anything illegal and that the pentagon moves slowly when they want to do something, and they move very slowly when they don't lol 😂

The best thing that can happen to Trump is for us all to drop kick his face
