If my maths is correct, and Biden gets 72% of the remaining 145K votes to be counted in PA, Trump can't even demand a recount, as the margin will be >1% At the moment, Biden is trending as winning c. 80% of the recent votes counted. Sorry, make that 87% of the most recent votes counted.

He has no chance of demanding a recount there .

He'll spout his usual rubbish , but America is growing tired of that.

Can we now start talking about how f*cking awful Joe Bidie is going to be as President yet, or is it still too soon?

Maybe they've finally grown a conscience and realised that he's whipping up a shooting war between Americans and they've belatedly decided not to be a party to that any more.

Of course, but more importantly the evidence behind those allegations. Evidence that is so far sorely lacking in all the accusations of shenanigans.

But what about freedom of speech? Should he not be free to incite civil war?

Not winning as well as expected = failure

Suffering a landslide defeat and worst post-war result = winning the argument

Ooft. One up for the libertarians there. Except of course free speech comes with responsibilities.

Tuffers, Although I feel there was electoral fraud, I agree with other borders that it’s going to be hard to prove. Anyway I’ve accepted Biden won. I’m now forgetting it and moving on . I seem to remember however people on here unable to accept the result of the EU referendum. Still whining about it over 2 years later crying for a second bite of the cherry with another referendum
