News feed:Election farce
【明報專訊】The US presidential election was a complete farce. It ended early this month but came to a standstill. Supporters of both candidates, namely Donald Trump, a Republican and Joe Biden, a Democrat, have staged protests across the country. Some demanded a halt to vote-counting, as they doubted that there had been vote-rigging (種票). Some even carried pistols or rifles while protesting, heightening the risk of violent conflicts.
Trump accuses Biden of ''stealing the election'' and gaining favours from China, while Biden criticises Trump for failing to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic and putting the US's economy at risk while irritating other countries such as China.
