Breaking US Presidential Election News Just In… This election is proving to be nail-biting stuff (unfortunate as the nail has shut for lockdown!). A friend of a friend of a friend who allegedly knows someone in President Trump’s marvellous campaign team has just told me via zoom that he believes Mr Trump will romp home to win a second term when all the (legal) non-postal votes are counted. He said Donald is currently letting Grumpy Joe Biden believe he ‘s going to win, and then in a twist worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster (or a chapter in President Trump’s future best selling autobiography) he will sweep in and save America from the disaster the Democrats would be. I do hope he’s right. The world needs four more years of Donald’s straight talking and anti-foreigner rhetoric if we’re to survive Covid and the coming recession. If Sleepy Joe did become President by fraudulent means a silver lining would be that the ensuing court battles would probably kill off the senile old duffer. I’ll keep you posted with any news or gossip. Christine Batley.
