Trump is fucking insane if he thinks it's a good idea to come here. For one the Scottish people despise him for all the shady business deals he does here with his hotel and golf course and other numerous businesses he has in Scotland . Secondly the Scottish government have said several times that as soon as he in no longer president they are going to charge him for his various law breaking business deals he has committed in Scotland. Thirdly he won't be allowed in the country anyway as we are in a full lockdown where nobody is allowed in or out of the country and it is currently illegal for us to leave our homes unless to exercise ect.

To be fair it's nothing personal, they aren't letting anyone in.

All parts of the UK have pretty much gone back to March 2020 for another lock down.
Yup. Tier 4 in my area, everything non-essential is shut. Bit of a bummer as I was planning to visit family, but what can you do - it is what it is.

You were "planning to visit family" why can't you just listen to the rules set out in your area, Stay home!
Your part of the reason this pandemic keeps spreading! Wear a mask, social distance and stay home unless it's absolutely essential.
Joe Biden winning and become the president is the best thing that could have happened to the US as he will do more then Trump to try to fix this pandemic. Just watch and you will see.

That is literally what he said.

He was planning to visit family before the rules were changed and now he isn't.

I'm not going to put my life on-hold because of a virus - when I have important business to attend to, I do just that. What I am going to do is take necessary and reasonable precautions. I do wear my mask, and I assure you it's better than yours - I have a hefty supply of KN95's instead of the cloth rags most people wear, and my hygiene standards are high, pandemic or no pandemic. Nobody in my family is sick, they're highly unlikely to get sick, and were it not for the pandemic halting international flights I absolutely would go see them. Sadly, the current rates of spread are too high, so I had to postpone those plans until the situation normalises and travel is considered "safe" again. I don't know why you're getting your panties in a bunch - I'm not breaking any lockdown rules.

Thank you. Reading comprehension is rare in these parts.

Looking good in Georgia at the moment, seems like Trump may have done a decent job of suppressing his own voter turnout with talk of a "rigged" election. Turnout in a number of red counties is down ten to twenty percent from last November.

Well, anyway, tomorrow is gonna be a shitshow, The biggest shitshow since that 1800 election, and then they are gonna verify the votes and official declare biden the winner. Apparently None of the senators have actively said anything about them objecting with the votes. Makes sense however, as the senate is usually less far in their political background then the house, With the house having most of the far right people most of us want gone. Either way, the house has a majority demo, so unless god wants us to perish and die, biden is gonna win.

Yeah, basically trump doomed the republican party, with most of the people either being with pro Facist trump, or they are being good and listening to their principles. It created a split that's a win win for demos and socialist, because not only is trump gone, but the republican party is weakened.

What's Trump's next move gonna be after this?

Mike Pence ‘has told Trump he cannot overturn election result’

Joint session of Congress set to ratify Joe Biden victory

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...trump-election-result-biden-b1782957.html?amp
Pence's role is literally just ceremonial. He has no say in the process or power over it. Of course, Trump and all of his sycophants would've already known this if they had bothered to read the constitution even once in their miserable lives.

You are assuming Trump is smart enough to read. I have yet to see any evidence to back this assumption up :rofl2:

"Votes don't matter! It's all rigged!"
A month or so later:
"Why aren't they voting?!"
Irony's a bitch. :rofl2:

He's had actual serious trouble reading the constitution, I think the answer is a strong maybe.
(But doubtless some site somewhere is blathering out the rear about his absolutely impeccable reading skills, providing a small fragment of positive press covfefe for him to latch on to.)

Your KN95 masks are a real joke. A KN95 mask is a FAKE N95 mask that isn't close to a real N95 mask... Have a read here and look at the spec sheet differences in the table.

Please stop assuming that you are better then everyone else. I'm in the category of essential workers and for that reason I wear an actual proper mask that protects me from 99.99% of particles. But that doesn't make me better then you, it just makes me better protected in the environment that I work in. So please stop trying to lower other people just to bring yourself up. By the way... Those "rags" that you talk about were implemented by YOUR government as well!

Joe Biden will most definitely increase the standards of necessary protection when he becomes president... Just watch.
