If the US Senate stays Republican and the Biden Oval ? - US Politics


Lets Get Real:

The BIG Democrats donners will not be happy, the Democrats banked in millions to take the Senate and keep the House in Democrat hands, if the Republicans can keep the Senate, its not over in till its over, then the Democrats and Republicans will have to work together or Biden will have a miserable in the Oval.   On the plus side, Biden is a creature of the Senate, thus one hopes he can make deals also ObamaCare could be thrown out by the US Supreme Court, that comes before the Court within a few days.   Also Trump is still President, one does wonder what he could get up to the next two and half months.  The first thing that Trump has to do is concede the election to Biden, POTUS should try to do with some grace, endless law suits is not the way, there is always 2024, American voters seem to nominate old men, so the Trump might try his luck in 2024.  Also 2nd terms can be fraught, Nixon being the classic example,  even the great Gipper had a problem with Iran - Contra, Clinton had his affair, while Obama had to deal with the War in Libya and the loss of US Ambassador.  If the POTUS wants to get some bonus points for 2024 he should concede the election and quickly, and help Biden out with a quiet transitional period. 

The start of the Biden Agenda - Biden Era - US Politics


Lets Get Real:

Thus we are seeing the US return to the moral leadership of the West, President - Elect Biden has stated that the US will return to the Paris Climate agreement on his first day on the job, that being 21 January 2021.   Also Biden will return to enforcing civil rights and calling out those opposed to civil rights.  It should be recalled pre Trump the Oval was about MORLE power, thus JFK on civil rights and Reagan calling the USSR an " Evil Empire ".  The World will be glad for a more quiet President, no more endless tweets, or endless press conferences, on the other hand TV might just get a new channel, Trump TV, he can be on it all day, and making life miserable for the other Channels, in this case Fox News and also going after President Biden, he might run again in 2024 to annoy everyone.

Problems with UK/EU talks - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase


Lets Get Real:

It can be argued that the EU is playing the UK, they are stalling the talks in the hope that at the end of the process that the UK will take a deal that is more in the interest of the EU than the UK.  The UK PM has to deal with COVID - 19 at the moment and the ramifications of the 2nd lockdown, the PM over the weekend should asses the talks with his staff and the Cabinet and pull the plug, the PM should send a CLEAR message to the EU, no more talks in less the EU follows the demands of the UK.  The EU is a past master at playing this game, the point of the game is not to be in the game, make it your game, and you set the rules.

Pennsylvania the State to the Oval Office - US Presidential Election


Lets Get Real:

In less nearly ALL the polls are wrong, we shall have President - Elect Biden on Tuesday night, quite early if Florida and Ohio go for Biden.  The next moves will be interesting, who will Biden place on his foreign policy teams, Susan Rice in to the State Department as long as the Democrats take the Senate.  The Biden staff will be former members of the Obama/Biden team.  The NEW Administration in January could faces a test from North Korea, they will see that Biden will appease Iran and remove Trump's sanctions and will agree to whatever they want, while on the campaign trail Biden has been tough about China and North Korea.  Once in the Oval Biden will face pressure from Liberals to have a very liberal foreign policy and allow NK to have the bomb.  As for former President Trump as he will be after his defeat and the move of the Biden Administration in to power, could face charges from the New York Prosecutors, that should keep him twittering away for a while, of course he could PARDON himself, that will drive the left up the WALL, a President has no check on his power to PARDEN FEDERAL crimes, thus the New York prosecutors will have to go for States charges, those will be harder for Trump, a US President has never been jailed before!

Further UK/EU Brexit Talks - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

RTE is a Republic of Ireland Channel, if you are curious!


Lets Get Real:

The talks will last another week, a result as stated by the article should become known by Wednesday or Thursday, this would feed in to a report that the UK PM is waiting for the result of the American election.   IN less ALL the polls are wrong, the Biden has the Oval in the bag, a Biden Administration will take its lead from a trade deal from the Dublin, thus a we should expect a water thin DEAL, one that everyone can live with, even Dublin, more in depth talks can happen in the New Year, that will refresh the teams and give everyone a BREAK.   On the blogging side it will be nice to face some quite time from the White House, well when Biden takes over in JANUARY, he is not much of twitter writer, the new President will need good staff, he will need his own JAMES Baker, Reagan's first Chief of Staff in his first term.  Also the team will have to cover for any mental lapses by the new President, the uber liberal press can only cover up so much for their candidate.

Wales to OPEN on the 9th of November - COVID - 19 Update - Wales and COVID - 19


Lets Get Real:

Thus Wales will open on the 9th of November, while England will have started its month breakdown.  The questions of pubs and bars and how they will be opened has not been answered by the Cardiff Government.  Will the hospitality return to the previous regulations or will there be new regulations.  Also how are you going to stop Welsh people crossing the border and vice versa, if Welsh pubs are open one can see the English people going over the border for a drink, so how do you stop them, have the police on the main bridge.  If I recall my Acts of Union that would be illegal and the police might say NO, that is not our job, get the Army, and of course the Army is under the control of No 10.  They will never sanction that course, also what about Christmas, will the pubs and other shops be OPEN?  Deep dark days ahead.
