THE WORLD AS WE KNEW IT

In a few days the US  Presidential election  will take place although there has been an unprecedented amount of early and on-line voting. This should have given a clear indication of what the final result will be but, because of the ridiculous electoral college system they run there it does happen that a candidate can win going against the trend and the popular vote. This happened in 2016 with Trump winning and in 200 when George W. Bush won.

ELECTORAL COLLEGE SIMPLY EXPLAINED

Or, even more simply:

Where Wyoming has one electoral vote for every 193,000 people but California has only one electoral vote for every 718,000 people. Ridiculous.

So, that egregious idiot Donald Trump, despite his bullying, blustering, lying and incompetence could still win. At least Robert The Irresponsible Sinner will be pleased.

What this means for most of America and the rest of the world is potential disaster.

COVID-19 has not been eradicated and in many places is coming back in second and third waves. Trump's Administration - and what a misnomer that word is when applied to Trump and the GOP as per a dictionary definition:

Administration

1. The process or activity of running a business, organisation, etc.

2. The management of public affairs; government.

It would be a far stretch to suggest that these bozos could run a corner shop properly let alone a government.

Anyway - Trump's Administration has seriously undermined USA's economy, civil rights, health system, law and order, justice system, environment protection and the safety of its citizens just to name a few. It has also, and this is where it affects us, undermined and in some places destroyed decades-old treaties, accords and agreements with both allies and enemies and allowed  military, economic and political expansion of Russia, China, Turkey and Iran amongst other countries.

God (just an expression) help us all.
