A running into various forms and finally burst. Shes very scary as she was in the. Shooting. People running and screaming. Hello welcome glad you joined us here on our international weve got lots for you busy couple of hours and day. Amounts all because ballots are now being cost all across the u. S. And arguably the most divisive president ial battle in the countrys modern history its the most expensive election of all time thats for sure and its happening in the midst of a pandemic thats claimed almost a quarter of a 1000000 american lives well these are the latest pictures from polling stations in 2 of the key swings. State wisconsin and North Carolina 4 years ago donald trump won both on taking wisconsin was considered a Tipping Point for the president that basically gave him a crucial need in the Electoral College count but things could be a bit different this time around with the polls pointing to like conviction for joe biden in the state. And a sign of growing anxiety businesses Business Owners are boarding up windows preparing for the wost there are widespread fears of a disputed result with some Security Experts predicting street riots in washington d. C. Many offices and schools have ramped up security but its one reports from there and tells us whats happening. This is the scene all across Downtown Washington d. C. From the white house fanning out for miles if you have a shop or a business its getting boarded up that is what is happening across the city and its basically every business this is a Wells Fargo Bank but were talking banks were talking restaurants were talking Office Buildings if it has glass windows or glass doors it seems like there is plywood going up over it there are dozens of these crews all around Downtown Washington d. C. Putting up plywood in to sufficient of what well in the anticipation of violent protests as a result of selection now going into a couple of these businesses and asked the store owners and the shopkeepers what are you guys expecting why are you boarding up now keep in mind most of these folks dont own these buildings are owned by landlords but theyre telling me they are boarding up in anticipation of in their words quote whatever happens in anticipation of whatever happens now keep in mind we have in this country 200 years plus of peaceful transition of power that takes place so this is a very unusual sight to see that during the u. S. President ial election that washington d. C. Would literally be boarded up in anticipation of possible violence but of course the other question thats coming up here does this become the new normal the new normal of when there is a president ial election buildings board up in anticipation of pro. Against whatever the outcome might ultimately be i did talk to one store owner who is a Liquor Store Owner he told me that during the George Floyd Protests his business was broken into his windows were smashed so hes putting up the boards himself most of this work is being done by professional crews but i did ask him what do you think any of this has to do with the election he said your guess is as good as mine over at the white house there is another set of precautions being put up so aside from the plywood being designed to stop protesters and unscalable fits thats what its been called unscalable fence has been set up here at the white house to protect the president and the white house from any protesters who may try to get over this initial fencing and the multiple layers of security what makes this fence different than these others is actually made of mesh and so theres no room for fingers or toes to be able to climb up it by the way some media organizations have been mislabeled in it claiming its a white fence on the other side of the white house made of wood it is not it is this mesh fence that has been confirmed for us by the secret Service Today the big question surrounding all this really comes down to the question of is this is the new normal for elections hard to believe but with more than 200 years of peaceful transitions of power were now talking about possible massive protests on the night of Election Night and again new layers of security at the white house its also about what happens in the next 4 years 8 years and into the future. Meanwhile a federal judge has ordered the u. S. Postal service to inspect several processing facilities in swing states including pennsylvania michigan and florida and thats in order to ensure that no men and bought it is left uncounted with more on the atmosphere before the elections as. Polls have already been opened for a number of hours here in new york city now around the country were seeing the along the lines outside of the polling places here in new york and were not seeing that as much because early voting has taken place and now were already getting some initial reports of fraud there are some individuals according to the New York Post who have been caught voting under the names of deceased people now. New york state is you know a stronghold for the Democratic Party so its unlikely that the results are going to be affected very much by any potential fraud here but regardless that initial fraud is being reported furthermore are the police of new york city are on standby anticipating protests from a number of different groups if the Election Results do not go their way here in new york weve also got store owners putting up boards over their windows and now reportedly at least one luxury Apartment Building here in new york has actually hired Armed Security guards in case of what might happen in the aftermath of the results protests rioting clashes in the streets across the United States gun sales are at record high and actually in los angeles the day before the election there was a big line outside of the gun store a gun store just outside of los angeles we were actually able to speak to the owner of that gun shop this is what he had to say to us or our 1st time purchasing is probably 50 percent about half of the people that come into our shop are 1st time buyers and thats a big deal you know they fear the worst to come after you deal like sions and with that people are going to do you know riots and stuff like dad after the election i think its going to get probably even worse you know and people once they start breaking down houses and the mobs get bigger you got to be able to protect yourself and theres a lot of people getting whatever they can in their hands the country is on edge because it seems like there hasnt been a clear indication from either camp that they would concede defeat if the results were to come in against their favor and theres been talk among among supporters of joe biden that he should concede donald trump has not said that he would concede defeat so theres a lot of fears of what might happen now here in new york city we actually took to the streets because while there is big division over the election it wasnt clear if people really understood the differences between the 2 major. Candidates. Carnival. Runs on the other hand youre very much older inexperienced. I dont do it from probably has a near 0. 0 so you just like to stop the work as everyone else is your heart and let me see has a policy. Problem truth is you. Really. Should sit back. And im going to say don from but it could be divided so at this point weve got anticipation of widespread protests weve got gun sales at record levels a lot of nervousness a lot of anticipation here in the United States as the country goes to vote many fearing that this election could turn into a big explosion. Has been an Online Campaign to fight against tom even if theyre not particularly keen on the alternative joe biden one of the a catchy slogan subtle for biden on teens getting on the ground spoke to us comedian jimmy toy who explains why the left isnt sold on the democratic contender. Joe biden is going to move to the right hes already said but promised hes bought out hes going to veto medicare for all even if it passes the congress and 80 to 90 percent of the people in the country are fortys already vowed to do that and why did he vote to do that because hes in the pocket of wall street and the Health Insurance companies his record is not ever being able to be moved to the left is record is he moved to the right and then farther to the right hes not moving to the left before he has your vote the idea that hes going to move to the left after you voted for him is as just nuts its him it sure its ridiculous and weve got to snap americans out of this idea because once joe by. Gets elected we just have another problem to fight you know what theyre saying is the equivalent does im going to go buy a car after i give the car dealer all my money that im going to negotiate the price and hes going to give me some of my money back that never happens this is which is why joe biden is never going to move to the left which is why these people have trump derangement syndrome to think that joe biden is anything what an exact warmongering fascist neal liberal whos going to workers and take care of the billionaire class well at least 100000000 americans have already made that choice using and. And men and ballots and that figure is twice as high as the last election back to 2016 now as those votes take longer to count but have to compare signatures its unlikely to mean significant delays in some states many ballots cannot be opened until election day and into thats pennsylvania and North Carolina they can even be accepted several days off to the voting has officially ended donald trump has claimed system is vulnerable to fraud and suggested he might not recognize the result and the democrats theyve been hinting the say the only way were going to lose this election is if the election is rigged to remember the only way were going to lose and so look for joe biden should not concede under any circumstances because i think this is going to drag out and eventually i do believe he will win whenever the and count is but on the election that occurs on tuesday he will be elected on january 20th he will be inaugurated president of the United States. Well lets go live to former u. S. Diplomat jim chat tress. Jimmy was speaking tonight as yes i we are 5 and also about sound you we have been thinking to one of our correspondents who did he walked around most who was told not how russians want to bump that up out who wins the u. S. Election and in fact we also have such a lover off the foreign minister and russia speaking a couple of weeks ago about saying it does not seem up to him to whence its going to be bought either way but democrats seem convinced that musk is trying to muddle teeth saying were going to have the same occasions as last time around oh absolutely impact weve been hearing them so far this year the russians and the iranians and the chinese and god knows who else is meddling a look at this i think were getting sort of. A train wreck here that no matter who wins the other side will claim that the other side stole it and and i think were likely to see later today is a good indication many states that trump may have won but the democrats are already calling that the red mirage that doesnt take out all of the other votes now be trickling in in the days and weeks that follow and of course then the republicans will accuse the democrats are trying to steal the election to your digital routes they just happened to well and so this this is going to get very ugly i think mr love wrote this write them either way it goes relations with russia are not going to get any better you mentioned that how i decide to going to say that it was stolen from them that are ready prepared now excuses in case they news for trump its all about of course the mel bought it for which you hear it at every single rally for the democrats its a fight suppression on the on fat assault the Electoral College how we bust a system do you think it is do you think it doesnt need to be amended. No i dont and i think a lot of people get confused about the Electoral College where you dont actually actual lecterns the human beings that you wrote for on election day and those do or dont really matter what matters is the weighted states each voting and what really accentuates not is that all the 2 of the states have a system where they give all their electoral votes to the winner of that they would you frankly disenfranchise as the minority voters are already in that state and maybe thats something that should be looked at through were going to what nebraska and maine have where they split their electoral votes but the bottom line is our system was not that designed to be very popular nationwide referendum no board in the fact that each state no matter how big or small only gets 2 senators which is not particularly democratic at all that thats thats what our Founding Fathers wanted to do as early as he said as a in our union or a federation of sovereign states but just i want to get back to russia a little bit despite obviously by claims you know trump is peytons puppet ration between russia and us actually being quite bad i think you can say of the possible yes he did maybe battle wasnt by do i mean by didnt it come out recently and sat i mean a no on satin tub is probably enemy number one for us is russia and absolutely and look your trunk gets reelected i hope he can actually move in the direction he said he wanted to move in 2016 im not optimistic that he will be close hell have so much resistance not only from the democrats but within his own party accusations that the russians stole the election but ill tell you i dont get 10 times worse than a biden becomes elected if you look at his team people like Michelle Flournoy and nick burns and tony blinken and the rest of them they make they make you know hey you know an esper look like mahatma gandhi. Well its going to be very interesting to see how the Foreign Policy plays out regardless of who wins tonight more who knows what were going to find out that was jim jobs former u. S. Diplomat many thanks for coming on to the program was good to have you here. One according to Mainstream Media as we were just talking about with jim it is very important to know which candidate is preferred in moscow trenchard takes a tongue in cheek. Big bucks being splashed on campaigns the Electoral College swing states none of this matters as long as the american vote is being decided. Right there by the box she says. Youll never be able to find out how exactly it works behind these red walls but the fact that its russia thats deciding can easily be felt outside the kremlin too. So i start walking down the are about street in the heart of moscow and the 1st thing i see pretty much. Stealing the u. S. Alike ship deciding instead of the americans you want to see what it looks like this is what it looks like. The famous photo office i can see trump is here too but i dont see buys in. By the us yet. But still full from the more sophisticated now thats something that makes a difference right. I mean hes still down meddling when you see this joe bidens wife showing up in the same dress as the one our teas editor in chief was wearing while interviewing surrogate. So its time to hear from the rough couple the publishers of. The 15th annual what would you call. Him gosh look at them but actually theyre done with the what if we can see in the globe. To see if this works for you jason stand. When the night falls. Is the scheming put on for the knack. Coverage of every. One in the store and you feel. The way youre going to. Go you. Cannot see the future flip over. Night or day russian taking over. But let me be serious for a 2nd ill tell you what most russians barely know when the american vote is happening to be honest with you most people dont care at all i would like to get over the fence. But. This is the libertarian central bank example jim how. Much are you sure it. Makes you. Feel like that before but im. Sure you. Well we are joined live now by mark so when his absence of history central talk called hes joining us from tel aviv ma while its always good to see you i actually want to start since of course your in israel i want to ask you know the government opus dei onto the top mr ations built a strong relationship with israel we saw about marked obviously with the moving of the embassy foster foremost how could a Biden Victory change things for israel. It will change a little bit 1st of all there wont be the same closeness that exists between trump and the 10 yo but biden has had a strong relationship with israel over 40 years so i dont expect that great a change well see a little bit more opposition to moves if israel takes any in the west bank in terms of annexation or any of those sort of things that by the administration will oppose things more than the Trump Administration did the big question will be the Iran Nuclear Deal and the question will be that the biden biden team has said they want to rejoin it under certain conditions if iran itself goes back on to the deal and and goes back in terms of the enrichment it has and biden believes the way to pressure iran is by using a multilateral approach including russia and other countries to work against the ran wild trumpets believes in a unilateral approach that american sanctions will do it so israelis are a little bit nervous about that but those are the major things that i think are different look biden has been a long term supporter of israel going back 40 years hes not an unknown unknown senator hes someone whos had this close relationship it will be different then with trump and of course biden will have a closer relationship with other parts of the government the party led by benny gantz to be a more natural affinity between them and between the time between as and you know. Biden famously said about 4 years ago about it 10 yeah i love the man but i dont agree with anything he says so well see what happens now so general characteristic of politics i think if im not mistaken you write an article saying that trumps try to israel credentials what is the enough to get him the jewish for those spots you didnt read the article what do you mean by that. Ok so the issue in the United States is will you know in terms of the Jewish Voters while what motivates jews to vote and the reality is in the United States for many years the jews have voted for the Democratic Party and the vote of the Democratic Party in my opinion because the Democratic Party over the years has been the Inclusive Party and the Republican Party was the party of the country clubs and exclusionary party the ones that didnt really want jews now and the trump is going to different churches in a certain change in a different direction we are all of his talks about america 1st White Nationalism has brought out a new level of antisemitism that hadnt existed in america for at least a generation or 2 and last year there was the highest number of antisemitic incidents in the United States since records were being kept in the seventys so jews are very concerned about that and thats one of the major reasons in my opinion that most jews will be voting for a voter already at this point obviously for joe biden because theyre afraid of the direction that trump has taken the public in part a theyre afraid of nativism and their fate of this american 1st and they feel more comfortable with the democrats who have always been the party of inclusion we also know that trump brokerage while quite recently is all peace deals between israel and he way also with bahrain and that was seen as a hail to the really big moment but its still early stages as still so much want to be done do you think the transition of power if by 10 wins could potentially threaten those negotiations and to doubt. I dont think so i think ultimately those countries are doing it for their own self interest maybe even more so theyre going to want their relationship with israel with the biden the ministration which may be less willing to sell them arms and other things so i think more so the gulf nations are going to want to be have a close relationship with israel by demonstration comes in as much as from a trumpet ministration so i dont really think thats the case i think that those relations will continue at the same pace theyll be other changes but those relations will be done those are clearly an accomplishment of the trucker ministration i would want to take that away from them they did make that possible or they helped make that possible and thats a positive thing was certainly not just the americans today and tomorrow waiting for those results obviously has a huge impact on the rest of the wild many thanks that was mark shulman ad sort of history central dot com.
