I've been doing the same and the silence, at first is unnerving but I bloody well jump every time the sound starts again after what must be dozens of adverts.

I don't?! I get a long period of silence and holding screen same as non-uk viewers seem to be getting.

What a dodgy electoral system.
Isn't it just like the UK first past the post election x 50 and spread over 4 days instead of 1 ?
See if you can guess what colour MP the 3 liverpool seats return and what clour the North east Cambridgeshire, South Staffordshire, and Rayleigh and Wickford returned ? Just the same as every district in the US.
It's always Bury North, Bedford and Kensington who decide on the Government. Everyone else is just pissing in the wind
That's democracy
So, back to the US, where it doesn't matter what the majority want

Thinking about it, that's what I'm seeing now.
I've spent the last three days in Wales, staying in an airbnb place, so maybe it was down to whatever the deal was with the owner's TV. Now I'm safely back in Sussex, it seems to be just trailers and pieces about sex trafficking.

I read somewhere, probably the Grauniad, that he was in the process of recoding the banding of officials and introducing a new band, to allow him the appoint his own poeple to key positions in this new band with vague terms and condtions that makes it almost impossible to fire them, and moving all those whom he considers enemies into roles where they can be fired without any fuss, or something along those lines. All an attempt to spike an Democrat administration.

Ditto! Couple of early hours checks too.
What kind of weirdo, sits on the loo at 4am for a piss, so they can have a quick check in on CNN
This, plus protesters with rifles ................ he's learnt a lot from Lenin circa 1917 it seems.
Who'd've guessed Tromp was a closet commie?

I’m loving this protracted collapse of Trump’s racist presidency of hate and division, death by a thousand cuts.
What’s not to like - CNN are great, sumptuous sunny weather here and sharing Biden’s march to the WH with great company on NSC.

Watching CNN, I wonder how much Michael Bay was paid to do that 'movie' advertising Abu Dhabi?

CNN is wonderful but they are pointing out something pretty important. Biden is currently in Coronavirus briefings. Trump - the leader of the Free World. The Leader. Is sitting in the Oval office tweeting in caps against his team's advice. Is he having a cry **** one wonders?
EDIT - they have also just mentioned that sources mentioned he plans to stand in 2024, which is as close to a concession as you're going to get.

Well even if he doesn't, the chances are that one of his equally unqualified and considerably less charismatic offspring will do instead.
