Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

Last 4 polls from the past few days all have Hillary ahead in Florida. Trump has no shot without Florida.
FiveThirtyEight.com now has Trump with a better chance than Hillary to win Florida. This changed sometime today, as of yesterday FL was light blue on FiveThirtyEight.com
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Was just coming to post this.

First Brexit, now the Cubs. This is the year of upsets.
The Cubs were massive favorites at that point and before the series.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

A pardon won't help her for the election.
It would be political suicide for him. And if she wins it would delegitimize her presidency with no way for her to prove to the ppl that she's  innocent.

Five Thirty Eight's winding path to 270 is noW split even with NH giving the edge to Clinton. The lat 2 polls have NH tied or Trump ahead. Trump wins NH and he is POTUS.

Just when we thought this is over. Just when Dan collected all his posts showing how he predicted a Clinton landslide.

Just WOW!

Let me check my crystal ball again. It has been busy for the playoffs.  :)
I can't ask DW as she voted early and skipped the top of the ticket.

It seems he meant in Illinois, which doesn't mean anything. I'm not sure I understand the point of JTZ's post.

No I mean for the general election and I do believe it. The odds makers believe it to. I am not talking about the pollsters.

I have not seen any as of now, but RCP no toss ups has it at 273-265 with NH with Clinton +0.8 for 4 EVs which would make a tie. Maine 2 is Clinton +0.7 which would add 1 EV and put him over the top. Maine is based on last weeks polling before the current tightening. This means that a very slight shift hands it to Trump.

If 0.7 is your cutoff, you should be much more worried about Florida. RCP average has Trump at +0.3. A shift there the other way would negate any minor gains in the northeast. And NC is listed as a tie on the state page, but counted for Trump on the no toss-up map.
