    He hasn’t sent anybody this evidence , not even his legal team because there isn’t any .
    I think I’m entitled to an opinion that if the courts are throwing it out and the media refuse to broadcast it because it may be liable that he has no evidence.
    Making it personal doesn’t make you right , there’s no evidence brought forward , that’s no evidence in the country it’s in Trumps head ,
    Defend it all you want but without evidence people are entitled to dismiss it for the wild accusation it is .

    The new Speaker (elected January 3rd IIRC) will be a Democrat. If not Pelosi it will be another from her party - they have the majority in that house.

    I know this mate. I wasn’t suggesting it would be a Republican. It just won’t be Nancy Pelosi.

    Totally off topic but I couldn't not reply to that. One of the thing's that most pisses me off about the BBS, is the way the phrase 'do gooders' is thrown around in such a negative way. I'm in 100% agreement with your comments.

    I'm not trying to make it personal. I'm simply making the point that the outcome of the election will not be determined by the collective gnashing of teeth and foaming of mouths on the BBS kangaroo court. I don't know what evidence, if any, Donald Trump has got but if I were him I wouldn't be showing my hand to be ripped apart by the various media channels either. I would collect my evidence, build my case and present it through the appropriate legal channels. If that evidence doesn't hold any water then it will be quickly thrown out. If, on the other hand,the evidence is legitimate and compelling the courts will decide whether fraud has taken place and whether it has ultimately affected the course of the result. Its not my place or yours to make that call when neither of us know the full facts.

    If, at the end of the process, Trump is re-elected I won't take any personal pleasure from that but, whatever the outcome, I would be pleased that the integrity of the election process has been upheld and that the majority Electoral College vote of the American people has been honoured.

    lad I know had a **** in a plant pot and left without telling them he had gone. It took them months to find the **** and they carried on paying him for 4 months.

    In fairness I think he might leg it before they have the chance.

    Trouble is the massively out sized Ooompa Loompa is going to start riots , civil unrest and probable loss of life because some of the equally nuttier factions believe him!!

    So your educated view is that despite the fact you’ve heard him say racist things, he might not be racist cos some black people voted for him.

    In other shock news: the white democrat candidate didn’t get as high a proportion of black votes as a previous democrat who happened to be black.

    If his evidence can be ripped apart by the media then it’s flimsy to start with and isn’t substantial evidence at all .
    There’s only one Person trashing the integrity of the vote and that’s Trump.
    His evidence has been thrown out by the courts ! Twice so you’re either arguing and didn’t know it had or you’re believing Trump over the courts .
    There’s no voting discrepancy and I trust the US procedures which says so rather than what Trump is saying which seems to be your stance .

    Twisting my words to suit a points scoring agenda?

    I said he's clearly racist based on what we see. I did caveat that by saying there's credible alternative views. It's short sightedness to not think it's an interesting statistic that more black males voted for a Republican President than ever before, despite all the talk of racism from the media and the opposition. Separate your Trump hatred and just have a view on that stat in isolation, which is what I said.

    You’re bot even remotely curious why there’s only be fraud in a few states he was hoping to win? None in the potential swing states that he did win? That all votes need to be counted in states he still expects to win but should be stopped in states where he’s being overtaken.

    It’s a shockingly badly organised fraud if that’s the case. You could almost surmise that the fraud doesn’t exist but that he’s a megalomaniac, just a chance like ;)

    I’m just puzzled that you caveat every negative fact about him that you can’t reject.

    it strikes me (and obviously not just me) that you’re desperately trying to spin his behaviour as well as is possible (whilst accepting it’s nigh on impossible).

    Just that really.
