I wonder if Trump has a secret tunnel out of the White House. Obama is joking that it will Navy Seals to remove him. What damage is all this doing to the United States.
That damage was done long before Trump.....it's why he's there in the first place. It'll only worsen after he's gone.

As I have said many times I don't so much hate him as pity him. He must have some kind of psychological problem. I hate the fact that the US system has become so unfit for purpose as to allow such a person to become President. So the system that has just elected Biden is unfit for purpose! Or is just unfit if it elects someone you don’t like.

Woof Woof. Next time you’re in London have a walk around outside the west end and you’ll see. Of course I won't. I will just see the culture, or cultures, that exist in that part of London. They won't be the same as other parts of London and even less so the further away you get and they won't be either "white" or "black".

The electoral college system is itself unfit as a method to elect a national President. The restrictions on being able to make constitutional changes holds the country back. But most of all the way that money, and not merit, rules is simply ridiculous. The opportunities for interest groups to influence is far too great. That has nothing to do with who is successful this or any other time. They all have no other choice than to work within the system. How to change it is the problem especially when no-one else seems to regard it as a problem.

It's a collection. Which won't all be the same. There will be many cultures on display. The key is in the name. It's Archives and not Archive!

In my view, the sooner America separates into two the better despite the issues this will cause the west generally. The sooner it does this the more peaceful and less costly overall it will be. Unfortunately, what typically happens is that this lesson isn't learnt and accepted until late on. Edited by Stirlingsays (21 Nov 2020 8.00pm)

Bidens got Georgia and Michigan all but verified now, the longer donald hangs on the more damage done to the country, Joe needs to see the books to get started! For all his faults, trump did provide one of the best laughs i have had in many a year, doing the sword dance with the saudi princes, google it if you missed it. The best bit was when it ended, he turned to his mrs and said, beautiful, beautiful- not meaning her, but the dance!

When there are Black Cultural Archives there isn't a "black" culture. There are at least two archives on display. Of course I also disagree with the idea of using a skin colour to describe a culture of any group or country. People aren't defined by their skin colour. They are defined by their character which is, in part, built by the culture surrounding them as they go through life.
