this election result is a fraud !!! I demand a recount... after I've ask for more votes... all those who voted don't care or don't know should be visited by the forum Stazi led by Stabby and forced to take a viewpoint on pain of having to respond to every single one of foxxy's posts.

There should be another poll option "be banned from Twitter".
It's been done. By Mr Dorsey the big rich Dem.

I was reading that he is going to be impeached on Monday! so looks like more riots to come from Trump supporters or even civil war, silly Democrats Trump will be gone in days anyway so what does it matter?

Things are so polarised that it is hard to see a return to some sort of consensus, certainly not in the near future.
Look at the fallout from June 2016 here. There are still anti brexiteers refusing to accept the democratic process and doing their best to make things rocky instead of buckling down and make something that they didn't want, work for the benefit of everybody, including all those who voted against.
The split here got pretty acrimonious (think of the glitterati on hired river cruisers, jeering and shouting insults at protesting fishermen) which was small beer to what we have seen over the pond.
I think one thing is comparable and that is the damage done to a political party that forgets its roots and history.

From the course of news/lies/false news/facebook/twitter it would be very easy to extrapolate a future scenario where Trump-like figures are the norm. I'd wager there isn't a single "fact" on the internet that isn't hotly disputed somewhere. Where that leaves everyone is having to follow there gut feeling and hope for the best, but too much of being given a voting choice like the USA just had and like we have been presented with twice recently can't go on. It's come down to which of these muppets/ robber barons that you despise deeply for different reasons do you vote in to variously shag you from behind, go back on their manifestos, waste the public purse and turn everything upside down for 4 years? Hehe, I've always felt like that but when I were a lad that was quite unusual... it's widespread these days. But everyone is more separate these days. Crowds don't gather, swathes of pubs are closed or food based, groups of more than three in a public place are illegal - did you know that? Police consent is required for EVERYTHING. That it is required to protest is laughable, why do we put up with that? That all dates back to Thatcher. Any grumble of dissatisfaction does not creep through the community in an organic way, it's now disparate people shouting at each other over the internet and...that's about it. Covid has spotlighted a few things. One thing is it's highlighted that trash with nothing to loose don't give a shit and trash with loads of money don't give a shit either.

Covid has spotlighted a few things. One thing is it's highlighted that trash with nothing to loose don't give a shit and trash with loads of money don't give a shit either. The trouble is that the internet has made the world a bigger place for all of us. It's made us feel more important than we really are because we think we can give our opinions to the world and everyone will listen. The reality is that the internet/media is JUST words. There is little love in it and it would also appear there is little common sense. There is little risk in spouting off words on the internet/media. There is no tactileness on the internet/media. When we are with those close to us in person, whether at home, work, school, care homes and hospitals, we take real risks. The body language shows our true feelings and we can relate to eachother as humans rather than actors with a false personality just to gain 'likes'. When I look back on my life, the people who really stand out in my memory are those who showed love by DOING things with me, or for me. I don't like the term 'key worker' but I do have a lot of repect for those on the front line who are keeping us all going. I just don't like the NHS being manipulated for political and financial gain. It's just plain wrong and immoral.

I worry for the civil war that will happen afterwards with who knows how many dead and Donald still in charge with revenge on his mind It wouldn't be the first time in history where thousands/millions have died in the name of freedom. Whether Trump stood for that is a different question.

If impeached it stops him from holding office again... I thought he had already been impeached once ..... they were saying that if he is impeached again he will be the first POTUS do be impeached twice.

I think you have to be found guilty to be banned from further office.
