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!

Nov 8 : Time to edit the wiki. Biggest upset in American History according to Michael Isikoff.

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.

That will be the standard answer every time there is a negative poll.
I honestly dont believe you can get an accurate poll of the countries views on Trump. We have already seen that those who support trump do not always respond truthfully or at all to these polls. There is certainly a strong group of people who do not support him that like to speak out against him and they would definitely be responding to these polls.
So yes, that will be the standard answer to polls regarding Trump until one is shown to be even remotely accurate.
I personally dont care about these polls anyway. Whether these polled individuals believe that Trump can handle international events plays no role on whether he can or not. I also dont understand how 40% can say they dont think there will be a major scandal in Trumps administration. Of course there will, show me the last president that didnt have one. If nothing major comes out then we will make a big deal out of something minor.

I predict that the Trump administration will be plagued with scandals. But on the other hand Trump has the potential to be one of the best presidents if he succeeds in shaking things up the right way.

How would you be able to show a poll as being accurate before 2020?

The national polls were not far off at all. The final RCP average had Clinton ahead by 3.3% with the final at 2.1%. THat is within the margin of error.

Also, there is less reason to mislead pollsters about these questions than about voting.

Well, Ds will tell you that Obama did not have any major scandals and Rs will tell you that Bush didn't have any major scandals.

Like your standard answer anytime Trump does something good. "Where should we grab it by...".
I actually love opening this thread to see how upset it gets you that he will be our next president.

+100

Agree. Trump hasn't even taken office yet and he's already making a positive impact on the working class in the USA. NEWS: Ford has just left a $1.6 mill plan in Mexico and committed $700K to build in Michigan:

no, it's just a free party for them, and more free attention. They'll have all pre-paid travel, restaurants and hotels. Plenty of people to pay their way for them, as all their D.C. businesses have benefited for the past 8-16 years.

people who gave 2016 tax deductible dollars to their foundation. They'll count this trip as a business expense.
