That was some video...

He's "not worried if Biden wins because then he will be dead"...

I wonder if he will do another video explaining why he is not dead if Biden wins...

The amount of people complaining about the the market being settled because they took some crazy punt on Trump is mental

I really don't know whether to laugh or cry at this. On the face of it he seems an intelligent and articulate chap. Then the words that form in his brain and come out through his mouth are just jaw-dropping.
I would definitely laugh, even more so when you realize that this head case has followers that take his advice. :lol:

It's just getting crazy, as it says in the article;

"“I watched the hearings of Rudy Guiliani and Jenna Ellis for ballot fraud, I listed to Sidney Powell and Lin Wood for the election fraud,” she said, in reference to conspiratorial lawyers arguing in Trump’s favor. “It looked very, very likely"

Well I listen to Matt Chapman et el say its very very likely 'Runaway Superstar' is going to win the 16:30 at Haydock - But I still ain't betting £1000s on it!
Somebody who's had a £1000 bet on Runaway Superstar might be please and agree with everything Matt Chapman says, because it's exactly what they want to hear. I guess the US election has drawn in people who know nothing about betting, don't have the gambler's mindset, went in big and will believe anyone that supports their position, given that it's a massive red that they weren't expecting - big enough to give hardened traders like us a heart attack. :lol:

The market has been settled so I literally couldn't give a fu*k anymore.

I'm staying away from conspiracy theories and the nutters who believe in them until the 2024 election

No but I'm sure somebody will offer one up in reply to your question.

Or maybe you have one of your own?

Not really, that's why I asked.

I've read the article and from my understanding the Pentagon seem to need a break from the meetings & they also have to deal with the cyber attacks. I guess those are more pressing issues than the transition of the new President. You would of thought though that a transition team would be different from a cyber attack team. All we can do is take it face value, im sure its perfectly normal tbh.

Off all the conspiracy theories I've heard, the mattress one is probably the most plausible. :)

There used to be two stalls in my local market place selling overalls but very rarely did you see somebody going in to purchase a pair - I'd just pop in to buy my cigarettes. :D

:lol: I remember going to a near by local once and when I went to the bar and asked for pint the lady said to me "pint or can?" I remember my cogs turning for a few seconds and then the woman said to me "the pint is £2.20 or the can is £1.10" - those good old days.
