Demorou muito, muito mais do que qualquer pessoa esperava ou poderia ter previsto, mas depois de vários dias de contagem de votos, já é finalmente seguro fazer previsões… E Joe Biden foi finalmente declarado vencedor das eleições presidenciais dos Estados Unidos da América. Neste preciso momento, Biden liderada a contagem do colégio eleitoral com 273 votos. “América, estou honrado por me terem escolhido para liderar o nosso grande país”, escreveu Biden no Twitter. “O trabalho que temos pela frente será árduo, mas prometo-vos o seguinte: serei um presidente para todos os americanos — quer tenham votado em mim ou não. Vou manter a fé que colocaram em mim.”
Antes de se tornar candidato democrata à presidência, Biden foi vice-presidente do ex-presidente Barack Obama e também é o senador mais antigo de Delaware. Este Sábado, 7 de Novembro, ainda antes da vitória de Biden ser oficializada, Donald Trump, o candidato derrotado, foi visto a chegar ao seu campo de golfe na Virgínia. Pouco tempo depois, publicou no Twitter várias alegações infundadas de fraude e irregularidades durante as eleições, escrevendo: “EU VENCI ESTA ELEIÇÃO, POR MUITO!“. Já no início desta semana, uma comissão internacional de observadores eleitorais concluiu que não havia provas de qualquer fraude.
Como seria de se esperar, a partir do momento em que a vitória de Joe Biden foi anunciada, o Twitter explodiu numa orgia Technicolor de gifs, memes, hashtags, emojis, pontos de exclamação e CAPS LOCK. Aqui ficam apenas algumas das respostas da comunidade do rock e do metal à vitória do candidato democrata Joe Biden, que derrotou Donald Trump nas eleições dos Estados Unidos da América.
AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!!!

Everybody take a breath…Consider: When you hold a nickel in your hand, you will notice it has two completely different sides to it. I also hope you notice that both completely different sides make up the same coin. Be kind to each other out there today 🤟😎

Y’all can be mad at me all you want but I’m glad that Biden won AND I’m glad that the Republicans will keep the Senate.

Happy to see ‘ol Donny relegated to the dustbin of history. Can we all agree to refer to him as “Lame Duck President Trump”? How long do we have to wait before ripping into the corporate stooge aka “President Elect” Biden? Asking for all my friends.
