Joe Biden has formally clinched the US Democratic presidential nomination. 9News

that will play out against the unprecedented backdrop of a pandemic, economic collapse and civil unrest.

Biden reached the threshold three days after the primaries because several states, overwhelmed by huge increases in mail ballots, took days to tabulate results. Teams of analysts at The Associated Press then parsed the votes into individual congressional districts. Democrats award most delegates to the party's national convention based on results in individual congressional districts.

The moment was met with little of the traditional fanfare as the nation confronts overlapping crises. While Biden has started to venture out more this week, the coronavirus pandemic has largely confined him to his Wilmington, Delaware, home for much of the past three months.

Wait til he picks Michelle Obama as his running mate...

Can’t wait to hear what the average white man thinks! Oh, wait... they’ve all already commented..

Congratulations to trump on his second term

Another geriatric in office, why would voters let a guy who is way past retirement run a country of 300 million people. Just the fact that ‘he himself’ thinks he’s the best man for the job, should make him instantly ineligible. Is there no basic entrance tests, like....today is?

An accident waiting for a place to happen..

Jesus wept. Good luck USA.

Wow this guy is going to die before the election. He appears and talks like a walking corpse. I hope he doesn’t die of corpse.

Seriously He can barely tie his shoelaces!!

They like picking old men?

So that it's then, Hilary Clinton for President, eh? lol

He won’t live until November what is he , 110?

That’s best they could come up with

Joe Biden will never be president he doesn’t even know what day it is

God I hope he wins but if he is the best the Democrats can come up with then they deserve to loose.

While I think Biden is showing strong signs of the onset of dementia, and that the US would not be better off under him than Trump, I would caution those saying he can’t win - Hillary supporters said the same thing about Trump. I don’t think either side can call it yet.

Yes

A pervert and a racist. Well done America

Here’s the deal...you gotta...I mean we must...(looks at notes)...the people...you know the thing...we gotta...you can’t be better...what we have to do...America...is it dinner time...

Corrupt as HELL and his crowd ..Hey Hilary

Good Luck PedoJoe DemocratsHateAmerica

Good now keep reporting facts:

He seems wait for easy win, but taking for granted will be a big mistake.

Old creepy has no clue and no hope. The Democrats have guaranteed Trump another term with their sad tantrums over the last 4 years.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sniffy joe!! That’s all they have 🤣🤣🤣

They will end up with a female leader, that is their aim.

We have to listen to this till November... It’s too much already!!

So, after November the US president will be someone who says strange things without considering them, could be accused of saying racist things, is handsy & has been accused of sexual assault, and is and old..... .... regardless of who wins!

Haha what an idiot

God help us all

HE LOOKS LIKE HE WILL DIE IN OFFICE,

Barack Obama says US protests can 'change America'In his first remarks since the death of George Floyd in police custody, Mr Obama says the protests offer an opportunity for people to be 'awakened' to underlying trends, and to work together to tackle them. Weird that eight years of being president couldn't They said the same decades ago. Didn't happen. Nearly 50% of people never vote. This is on them and this needs to change. I miss him. And I don’t even live there. 😢

'No question' over US-Australia diplomatic relationship | Sky News AustraliaPerth USAsia’s Gordon Flake says there “is no question” about the strong diplomatic relationship between the two countries, after the officers that assaulted Australian journalists in Washington DC were promptly stood down.\n\nPolice attacked the Australian news team with shields and batons outside of the White House at a demonstration that turned violent, where crowds were forcibly moved away from during President Donald Trump’s address.\n\n“The US Embassy in Canberra quickly released a statement regarding freedom of the press,” Mr Flake told Sky News.\n\n“I think our allies of Australia in the US, which are many, responded to make sure this was handled quickly.”\n\nImage: AP\n That's because Scotty showed Trump his deep throat method when they met. As much as it was terrible what happened to those reporters, I think it would be wise to look at the bigger picture. They might have deliberately put themselves in harms way. Also they’re from the 7 network owned by Kerry Stokes. Need I say more. Where is the comparison !

China and US ban flights from each other’s country amid tensionsThe Trump Administration has moved to block Chinese airlines from flying to the US in an escalation of trade and diplomatic tensions between the two countries. They are all acting like 3 year olds. China is making enemies all around the world just now. Maybe a good thing to bring its supremacy nonsense to a head and have a general push-back.
