Racists vote for racists.
Interesting, what it shows me are more sensible Brits (even conservatives) than i expected. Ignoring reform UK of course.
I am really worried about the results of the election, if Trump loses i think there may be a revolution, if he wins his supporters will be emboldened to act even more like complete ********

Sadly, I have to agree.
It's so confusing because in Europe blue means rightist and red means leftist. 
It doesn't surprise me at all.
I am really disappointed in all British Conservatives especially in the platinum blonde boy doll...
They prefer Harris because she wants WW3 meant to destroy Russia (and continental Europe will be destroyed too in the process).

Nothing about US politics makes sense to a European, so far as I can tell. I think it's part of their political culture that no one ever trusts the government. So it's not like Europe where we expect our governments to protect our interests, and turn against them if they don’t. Americans don't ever expect the government to look after their interests.

There will not be a revolution. There will be some violence but that will quickly be put down AND prosecuted.
If he wins, which is very unlikely in my opinion, I suspect he will suffer a medical issue that will remove him from power. Or he will be otherwise rendered impotent in such a way that it will stand as a warning to Vance and anyone other republicans that may be fantasizing about becoming the U.S.'s big dictator-in-chief.
That crap is not going to be allowed to stand. One way or another.

Why is it unlikely?
Surely, the Republicans wouldn't have chosen him as their candidate, if they thought he had no chance.
I hope you are correct
I hope there is no violence but i don't hold much hope.
I do hope so. I really fear for America's future
- Very Unlikely ≠ No Chance
- That said, "very unlikely" seems either overly optimistic or overly naive.

It’s looking more likely today that Trump will win. The man was actually working a McDonalds drive through, making fries! I had to laugh!

Yeah, why can't they stick to civilised colours.It's so confusing because in Europe blue means rightist and red means leftist.
From itvNEWS on 11 June 2024:
Still, Reform's 30|15|55 showing is interesting given:
And while the party’s membership is growing, so too are questions about some of its candidates.
On Friday the Reform withdrew support for two of its candidates after previous racist comments were unearthed.
The party has said it will look into other allegations.
One candidate Reform is investigating is Robert Lomas, who is standing in Barnsley North, one of the party’s key target seats.
He’s reported to have said asylum seekers had it “in their DNA to lie” in comments posted online.
He also wrote that “Black people of Britain” were “grifting the race card” and should stop acting “like savages”, according to The Times.
The 55% seems to suggest that the Trump wing of the Trumpian Reform party is gaining momentum.

They didn't choose him. The fools among their supporters did, because they have been courting those fools for decades in order to win elections that they couldn't win any other way. So now they are stuck supporting their idiot mascot just to keep their own cushy positions. None of them wanted Trump. None of them think he is good for the country. But they are all so worried about keeping their own cushy jobs bilking the taxpayers on behalf of their rich cronies that they don't have the courage to say so, or to act against him.
This is not a people that will tolerate a dictator. If I'm wrong, then I suppose we will deserve what we get. But I don't think I'm wrong.
The U.S. is basically a gigantic money pump for a small group of very, very wealthy people. No one is going to be allowed to impede that flow of money. And the American people are already so stressed economically that a greedy dictator will break the bank (and Trump is nothing if not greedy). So the minute he and his criminal progeny start stealing big piles of money, which they most certainly will try to do, those very wealthy elites will have him eliminated for us. And they will do so in such a way that it sends a warning to any future would-be dictators looking to break the bank.
We are already an oligarchy. And those oligarchs are not going to tolerate any greedy dictators.
They will, however, tolerate a dictator that acts on their behalf. A "puppet" dictator. And that is what we really need to guard against. Although to be honest, that pretty much describes our entire government at this point.

What I call Farage breaks RF rules five and eight. And possibly two. Three doesn't look that great either. Or one. Obviously not ten.I call Farage "Il Duce Farragio", leader of the "Deform" party.
