The ‘Blue Wave’ that political commentators across the globe promised us would cancel out the Republican Party’s early lead in the US election is on its way, definitely. 

You would be forgiven for losing hope as a number of signs seemed to suggest Trump was doing well in the election, like when they announced the first few states, the announcement of all the rest of the states, or when he won the election, but actually you just don’t understand the electoral system and you shouldn’t worry. British television companies have hired a crack team of commentating troops to tell you it’s all fine and you’re an idiot, and they understand the electoral system really well because they either a) were briefly a senior member of the Tory party b) contributed to war crimes under Tony Blair or c) sometimes appear on Good Morning Britain.

99% of gamblers quit right before their big win, and 99% of presidential candidates concede elections right before a huge wave of Democratic votes (that are delivered slower than Republican ones due to mystical forces) comes in to save us all from fascism.
