Foxy,

You should check your facts before rubbishing someone else's post. The fact that Trump attracts most of the working-class voters is a point of concern raised by Tristan Ewans in a separate thread.

The reason that working classes are abandoning the Labour movements in the USA, UK and Aus is a matter of record.

The new "Socialists Left" leader in Canada Erin O'Toole in a recent speech highlighted the need for the party to attract voters among the country's working class and lower middle class who've drifted away from the left. Mr O'Toole said the income imbalance in Canada needed to be address, he pointed out that declining union membership has been bad for Canada, because unions were an essential part of the balance between what's good for business and what's good for workers. Mr O'Toole criticised the decision of former governments to send manufacturing jobs overseas, saying even though it's cheaper to outsource jobs to China it's done too much damage to working-class Canadians.

Hi Foxy,

Trump could have won the election easily, unfortunately for him, only 70 million of his rednecked racists supporter base bothered to turn out to vote, the other 30 million stayed at home. Where have all our sycophantic Trumpets gone, seemed to have disappeared. Shonkyminister is still regurgitating garbage he reads in the Murdoch gutter press. Proud Boy Jose' is raving "Wez waz robbed!, Donald won" can't come to terms with the fact Dangerous Doctor Donald has been flushed down the sewer with the rest of the crap. ttbn, mhaze, runner, Hassy, Indy, Issy don't have much to say, still getting over the shock, the Messiah didn't rise in 3 days as expected. .

Hi Paul,

It will take a long time for America to get
over Trump. His current behaviour is very
sad and reflects badly on what America is
supposed to stand for. Hopefully the new
president-elect will be able to get to work
sooner rather than later. He's got quite a job
in front of him.

I wish him luck.

I think the FBI should be conducting an investigation into the post-election activities of Trump and his stalwart Republican politicians on matters of attempting to incite rebellion and usurp the Presidency.

The lot of them might end up being arraigned on charges of treason and face the death penalty.

I bet Trump's supporters will drop off quickly if they see that coming their way.

Why don't the US federal agencies just take
Trump out - after all they're supposed to be
protecting the country. Surely Trump could
run to Russia and live there quite comfortably -
in Barvikha, Russia. Other despots have escaped
to that place.

Hi Foxy

Unfortunately US authorities abide by the laws saying Trump is POTUS until noon 20th January 2021.

Trump $400 million in debt (mainly to Russia) will be a liabity to Russia after the 20th.

But meantime Russia is benefitting from Trump's all out actions to sack as many US military, intelligence and security bosses http://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/09/us/politics/esper-defense-secretary.html as possible.

Trump is also trying a rapid withdrawal of half the US troops from Afghanistan - to create a power vacuum - that Russian influence will fill.

BTW any doubts Melania will leave Trump before mid 2021 ie. before Trump's debts all called in?
