You may not be interested in politics but if you have switched on TV yesterday, you must have seen every news channel covering the elections – not the Bihar elections but the US elections.
There is a close contest going on between the present President of USA Donald Trump and American politician Joe Biden. While the results seem to be going in the favor of Joe Biden, Donald Trump has also announced that he is going to win and also declared that he will be going to the court in regard to the election results. Protests have also started in the USA and police has arrested around 50 people till now.
However, what is surprising is the fact that the Indian media is following the US elections as if the elections are taking place in India. The Indian Twitterati also noticed it and soon social media networks were flooded with memes and jokes in this connection.
Check out some of the selected tweets that will make you go ROFL:

Back in 2016, while the rest of the world was obsessing over Trump winning US Elections, Modiji decided to come on TV and cancel our currency.
Sweet sweet memories.

In class 5 when we played bat ball there was a kid who used to take his bat and go home if he felt he was losing. That kid could be President.

Jokes apart, the American elections are important for the whole world as USA is a superpower nation and the American President is certainly the most powerful person of the world. The relations between India and America are pretty good at the moment and it will be interesting to see how the next President will take them forward.
Most probably Donald Trump is going to be the first President in the last 30 years who will fail to win the second term. In the year 1992, George HW Bush failed to get re-elected for the second term but after that, Bill Clinton, George W Bush (Junior) and Barack Obama, all three President won their second term.
Are you following the US elections?
