US election 2016: Trump says election 'rigged at polling places'

He will blame everybody but himself for his current situation.....He is even disagreeing with his running-mate.

Well, not really -- polls actually had the Tories mostly tied or barely ahead. In the 25 polls conducted in the final week before the 2015, the Tories were behind in six of them and tied in nine. Even the ones with Labour ahead had only a one or two-point lead.

You might be right to be sceptical, and certainly Trump has a chance of winning, but it also certainly isn't just a straight toss-up.

EDDIE 12.33 That is the one and only reason I support the Monarchy.
People will vote for Trump on the A.B.C. premise. Americans are hard for Europeans to understand (I found them nice but very strange) and, despite the ruckus (American, please note) I think that many will continue to support Trump. If a week is a long time in politics, how long is a month? I still think it will possibly be a close call.

Maybe it was just Mikey with his regular offerings of poll results who gave me that impression then.

LoL....AOG.....

You can't help yourself, can you?

[ToraToraTora]

so the chaps in those videos are off message JTT?

[Ninefingers]

Lets be blunt, we have a rather distant view of both but fixed based on our own leanings/tendencies. The lefties *** of Trump as the righties *** off Clinton, we should be slagging both of them off as neither are fit to govern. JTH, AOG has a point to his videos, shoing us more direct viewpoints of Americans who have to elect one of these clowns, maybe, just maybe trying to help us understand a little more.

My own leanings are anywhere away from the pitiful mediocrity we are stuck with just now, this pair are both numbskulls who are not fit to run a raffle never mind a country who wioll do nothing to change the mediocre politics that run the western world.

sl@g off isn't rude especially in this context!!

"AOG has a point to his videos, shoing us more direct viewpoints of Americans who have to elect one of these clowns, maybe, just maybe trying to help us understand a little more."

You have to know something about who those people are, what their political views are, etc, before taking them as necessarily representative. As I have mentioned earlier in this thread (and, if I didn't, I meant to), votes for either candidate remain essentially split along party lines, so that if you are Republican you are generally for Trump (despite the fact that he isn't really Republican), and Democrats are generally for Clinton, and this is not really all that affected by other factors. There are, however, very few black Republicans.

At the moment, it's expected that this year about 90% or more of all black voters in the US will vote for Clinton -- so those videos appear to be from isolated people. Context is everything.

[Ninefingers]

It is, a portion of Black voters object to her, that's the blunt context of this whether it's two or two million

[jackthehat]

The Americans giving their views in the clips, having slightly more direct experience of American politics, are perfectly entitled to their opinions on either of the main candidates....

I just find it very amusing that AOG has to crowbar his own prejudices into any given subject.

[EDDIE51]

Here is the full list of all the Independent US Presidential candidates all 31 of them! So 33 to choose from including Trump and Clinton!

There is a brief synopsis of each ones main campaine points!

[mikey4444]

The difficulty is, while are some black people that vote Republican, the vast majority don't.

If Trump wants to win in 3 weeks time, he had better look elsewhere for those much needed votes.

Pot calling the kettle (dare I say it) comes to mind.

AOG - You do realise that your comment doesn't actually make much sense, don't you?

But keep posting petty responses if it soothes your ruffled feathers.....

Watching Paxman last night, I thought there was surprising amount of people of all backgrounds on the side of The Donald, - did anyone else sense this?
