Well, looks like things for the UK are going to be even harder than they could have been, what with the way the us election is going.

so the uk has to take a deal if biden wins but not if trump wins because biden cares more about the good friday agreement except the senate is still red so whatever it really makes no sense to think the uk will fare better depending on who wins.

It can't be any worse than Trump under Biden and potentially could be a little better, so reluctantly I would rather see Biden win

trump probably more likely to lead to a unified island but that has more to do with antagonism and wind turbines

I don't really see where a Brexit deal is supposed to suddenly come from? 500 years after initiating the Brexit procedure we're still at the what-the-gently caress-do you-want stage.

A Biden presidency will likely be more friendly and loyal to Ireland, which will put it on a major collision course with an increasingly politically and economically irrelevant UK that is determined to pursue no deal and wind up the small-r republicans. He can be more trouble than Trump because he's more focused, disciplined, and principled (it's a very, very low bar, but I think he clears it by dint of not being one of the world's most extreme malignant narcissists), and because we're going out of our way to become an obstacle for him to remove.

I'm just thinking, do the Americans ever talk about the 'special relationship' of their own volition? It seems like something only ever bought up to flatter the UK's self-image

In my experience, most are completely indifferent to us. Half of the rest think we're Harry Potter Island, the other half hate our guts even while they consider us largely a joke nowadays.

Although I am probably reading too much into it.

It seems like something only ever bought up to flatter the UK's self-image I think a lot of countries consider themselves to have a “special relationship” with the US. I know Denmark had a particularly war criminal government back in the Bush era that leapt headlong into his wars, but I don’t think Trump has acknowledged that we exist outside of being pissed he wasn’t allowed to just buy Greenland off us.

i suppose as long as the deal, whatever it is, can be blamed on someone else (even boris once he’s chucked to the kerb), the tories will go for it otherwise they lose the only thing keeping their coalition together

Itt sorta seems like bidens state department is a lot more likely to tear us apart and devour us because they won't be distracted and stupid like they would be under trump We've basically been baring our necks to the vampires for 5 years and wafting the smell of fresh blood at them, I don't think we would be allowed to go back on that. Any deal will have to include the same asset stripping and destruction we've promised them.

Basically it may mean no chlorinated chicken but there's no protecting ownership of assets from USA strip mining except total resistance to the whole political structure which will be interesting to say the least.

Half of the rest think we're Harry Potter Island, the other half hate our guts even while they consider us largely a joke nowadays. Americans tend to fall into three camps of opinions on the UK: extremely dumb anglophiles (harry potter and economist subscribers), hates the UK out of jingoism, and hates the UK because it's pedo island. There's really only two countries that have an actual special relationship withe the US: Saudi Arabia and Israel. Everybody else is under realpolitik rules.
