Andy's News
Biden, Brazil and Bolsonaro… & COP26
Perhaps there were some of you who thought I might have been getting ahead of myself when I excitedly `toasted` Trump`s loss the minute the Pennsylvania count started to turn blue last week. Indeed, there may still be some who are saying let`s wait and see what transpires. Biden has claimed victory, but Trump has yet to concede. However, I shall stick to my belief that the US system is robust enough to see Trump off the premises by January 20th next year.
