Ok, so it's definitely going to be Trump in the White House next year

like, what stunning political insight is to be gained here?

Well, we find the most successful route to power is to have your opponents control government for fourteen years, so that by then people are so absolutely sick of them that you win by virtue of being the only other option to hand. Also use the press to punish your left flank. Policy? What's that?

Huh, didn't know Reform split the vote hard enough to cost that many seats to the tories. A 12-point swing to one party is HUGE.

Vance. Trump will get domed by a three letter agency and he’ll win posthumously because the Democrats are that bad.

Hope they're knocking doors in my part of PA. Getting door knocked by British nationals campaigning for Kamala Harris. I would probably burst out laughing honestly.

Imagine you're a Pennsylvania swing voter (a complete numbskull) and a Starmerite knocks on your door to tell you, "Wot wot ol' chap. It would be right bloody brilliant if you voted for Kamala, love!"

Is this that foreign interference I keep hearing the Democrats talk about?

Don’t worry Dems, the cavalry is coming.

yeah, but consider this: the number of Starmerites that will be threatened with gun violence for political soliciting will not be zero.

Labour really think they won the UK election due to their skill and brilliance don't they?

Maybe mid sex is their kink?
