When a tweet about the US elections (by a non American) generates 12 k comments in a few hours, I think it’s a polarising subject!
I don’t understand why pro Biden Americans are upset about postponing the elections. The UK postponed the local elections by a year (and now we’re stuck with Sadiq Khan for another 12 months)...not ideal but situation is not ideal either.
And just to be clear: I didn’t suggest elections are postponed but that Biden OFFERS to postpone them as a gentlemanly gesture (which would require a congressional vote)...An opportunity to heal the divisions within US society.
Interesting discussion on BBC radio on options for postponing the US presidential elections...it’s certainly doable if the Democrats agree
“US pres elec is slated for the Tuesday after the 1st Monday of November every four years. It would take an act of Congress - approved by majorities in the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives & Republican-controlled Senate - to change that” bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-… QED
The US Democrats clearly have invested significantly in social media campaigns- an Obama legacy.
I am aware of a “think tank” the Democrats supporters fund (several million dollars this year), to influence Twitter and Facebook. I know this because the Muslim Brotherhood whom I battle against has been getting close to them and using them to infiltrate FB and Twitter.
I’m actually stunned...20 k comments on a tweet...the anti Trump brigade is pulling out all the stops. And I’m not even American! I don’t care who Americans vote for, but I am worried about how polarised the free world has become - in a very negative way
