Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1608:11 AM
I predict that the early vote will strongly favor Hillary, then in the afternoon dramatically change to favor me, once all the GOP voters get off work and start making it to the polls.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1608:49 AM
I predict the flaming sack of caca Trump has left on the country's front porch will get stomped on today. There will be a mess to clean up tomorrow. Don't expect "The Donald" to help with that...
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1611:24 AM
Some more predictions:
Popular vote...Hillary will beat Donald about 49-44, maybe 48-45.
Electoral College...Hillary will beat Donald about somewhere from 315-220 on the high side, and 305-230 on the low side.
Senate...there are 9 Democratic seats up for grabs, they will probably hold on to all of them, or maybe lose Nevada and keep 8, but that's pretty unlikely. There are 24 Republican seats up for grabs, the Dems will probably take 4 of those, and the Senate will be either 51-49 Democratic, or 50-50, with a Democratic majority thanks to the Vice President (who will be a Democrat) breaking all ties.
All the "twue 'Mericans" who are gearing up to "take back their country" after Trump is done throwing his tantrums tonight ten minutes after polls close on the west coast will do absolutely nothing at all except be whiny bitches on Twitter and their neo-Nazi facebook pages.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1611:40 AM
ahhhh.. the day in America, when Hillary supporters, and closet ones that wont say they support her, but really do, are happy do be ruled and controlled by a psychotic bitch that cares nothing about anyone but herself...
good job America....
also, this should mark the end of the BLM bullsh!t and all racism in general, because Hillary is about equality, even tho shes had control over certian aspects and things in our country for 30 years... i mean we as a country arent were we are at because of scum bag politicians that only care about themselves....
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1602:06 PM
Neither Hillary or Donald scares me.
I'm with Stam and the other 49% of Americans who will just carry on working and paying taxes and watching football.
What scares me are the mobs of folks who would actually show up and cheer one of these two clowns on!! What would possess someone to hitch their wagon, happiness and self esteem to a politician?? Whatever the motivation it certainly can't be good for us 49%'ers!!!
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1610:34 PM
Good news for the Dems is Trump is no conservative, more like a blue Dog democrat. He might just end up being a good leader,being an outsider might just be what this country needs. Regan wasn't well liked when he first got elected. Time will tell.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/08/1611:07 PM
What a pencil necked chicken chit. If Trump pulled that off he would be crucified.

He's gonna end up with 301, podesta should have conceeded. They are probably buying Hillary time to get out of country. I bet she has gone through alot of diapers the last couple hours. Jail is not a good place for old bags.

If that woman can't "float your boat", then your boat is unfloatable.
I hope you don't have any daughters.
Are you really so delusional that you think Trump would hop on his jet, fly to Alaska, and then hop a float plane and fly another 300 miles (100 miles from the closest road) just to attempt to molest my daughter? She doesn't step out the front door without her .44 mag, and she can drive tacks with it at 30 yds. She lives with Grizzly bears, soI'm not really worried about her
Now, lie to me. Tell me that you've never said anything that you wish to (insert your supreme being here) you could take it back.
Of course you have. He said the wrong thing, and got recorded. Whooppee...
If that's your biggest fear with having a President Trump then I think we'll all be fine.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1606:23 AM
Well, I certainly was wrong. It's an interesting phenomenon for me - an anti-establishment person growing up in the 60's. Clearly I am now part of the establishment and was blind and deaf to the real anger and frustration that my fellow countrymen feel. That anger and frustration, along with a terribly flawed Democratic candidate led to the election of President Trump. May God Bless America.

We live on an island out here in Washington.. That unconstitutional gun initiative is good proof of that, can't believe people are dumb enough to vote for that but over 70% did, slippery slope indeed.
I saw the map on Fox that showed the country map by county red or blue, it was all red accept a few blue dots and fringe on the NE and west coast, everything else was red.
The people spoke, "no more progressive crap poked down our throats". Obamas legacy will be erased by April..
The court will be conservative for the next 30 years.
Extreme reform is coming, populasts conservative president, Republican house and Senate.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1606:50 AM
I knew the election was a coin flip and warned my friends and family about it but they thought I was out of touch. Now it looks like a donkey could have beat Trump. Hilary simply represents 30 years of a downward spiral and selling America out. Everybody is angry about it but I simply don't think Trump is the guy. I do hope he guts the republican and democrat parties. We need unity and to concentrate on American problems between the borders, things Washington politics seem to have decided were old fashioned.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1607:44 AM
Once I got past the horror of uttering the phrase, "President Trump," I realized there is reason here for guarded optimism. I tend to disagree with what have been the Republican economic principles over the past few decades, but I'm encouraged to see that, with a Republican Congress, this administration should be able to enact SOME policy. I can at least hope that some of what they get done will be counter the status quo, as much as I doubt it. Pretty sure Hillary wasn't going to do anything new at all, so there is that hope.
I'm a little concerned about Trump in foreign relations. I think he'll stick up for us, but I hope he doesn't say anything too stupid in the process. Looks like Putin is pleased with this outcome, so that's good....
I sincerely hope the next 4 years are interesting; we'll have to wait and see.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1608:35 AM
Wow that was an interesting election!
It was a vote against the establishment (political lifers and the media). Obama and the media spent the last 4 years telling Americans that we are racists and everyone is a victim (except white guys). I hope/half believe that divisive narrative is finally over. Yes, there is racism in America, but it is better here than 95% of the world. Most Americans just want to go to work, play, pray and watch football.
Now, as for the conservatives who are tickled with their president-elect. I have a feeling Trump may disappoint. He was a New York democrat for 30 years and while I strongly feel that an end to Obamacare is coming (it was doomed anyway), I predict a softening on a lot of Trump's conservative rhetoric when policies get made.

I edited your first two sentences and other than that, I couldn't have said it better myself. I don't think Trump is the sharpest tack in the drawer, nor is he well spoken. I hope he "drains the swamp" and surrounds himself with an honest cabinet. Change is coming. Just have to cross our fingers that the bull in the China shop doesn't screw it up worse.
This Republican victory was still a very narrow race and the silent majority spoke. Unfortunately, that majority is aging and I believe it is only a matter of time before our elections swing left permanently.

Not that there would be the slightest chance of either one ever looking at you, but, if given the chance you're saying neither Melania or Ivanka would "float your boat"?

"The question is, how did the pollsters get it so wrong? Why was their sh!t so retarded?"
That's easy Hankster, but that's why I expect you still dont get it (lol) :poke:
Polls are perceived to sway public opinion, and that's why they frequently are skewed to reflect the desired outcome, versus the actual current figures. I think there is a school of thought, which I dont subscribe to, that believes that if the polls make it look likely that a certain outcome will occur, that you will have "bandwagon voters" jump aboard, or conversely, voter suppression because they think their vote wont matter.
This election result blows those campaign strategies out of the water, hopefully forever.

Bingo, look how all our friendly PP members piled on Rich for siding with Trump.. That's what America was doing, the ol' gang bang... I followed and nearly engaged many times through all these threads but sat back because it was apparent what was going to happen, ridicule and beat those that were thinking outside the broken box...
America also sat back watched and listened and most intelligent people sorted through the heaping piles of horse [Bleeeeep!], rather than follow the main stream media as the sheep they were and made an educated vote....
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1601:46 PM
Broken Clocks are right twice a day Hankster.
Good-quality polls MAY give an accurate sense of where a political race is at a point in time, but they don’t predict the future. Its now clear that the most criticized Poll, that from the LA times, proved to be the most accurate in the last 120 days.
Nate Silver is a sellout establishment buffoon. Smart guy, but He uses his status, or he is used, for political influence rather than independantly reporting facts.
I crunch big data at work, and its almost always easy to find numbers to support your desired conclusions.

"Today is the day where reality crashes in, but something tells me you will do your best to keep it out.
Trump gets mashed, and tomorrow announces his new cable "news" show, which was the whole point of this publicity stunt all along, and his imbecilic sycophants will buy up the snake oil like PT's fools.
Re: Official ELECTION DAY THREAD ((((((((())))))))))) - 11/09/1603:01 PM
How did the pollsters get both Brexit and POTUS votes so wrong?
For me it's pretty simple. Group think. When no one you've ever met or hang out with is pro Brexit or pro Trump your poll is going to ignore or, at least, alienate those folks.
Hats off to Rich for seeing thru the fog. Extremely difficult to stand on a hill yelling, "The king has no clothes" while the masses are gathered around commenting on what a beautiful (birthday) suit the king is wearing!!!

I didn't mind having people beat me down, call me terrible names and telling me to kill myself every time I checked the dark side. It was worth it and I knew I was right anyways.
Based on my personal experience with government curruption I knew Trump was telling the truth, and it was even worse than he was saying. I felt I could help his cause here by maybe informing people of things they might not have known about. I made people think a little more than maybe they would have, and consider things maybe they wouldn't of.
I knew that the actors on this BB were mostly ultra progressive liberal which would make for some really nasty and dirty threads between me and them, the kind of threads that were both entertaining and educational, which alot of lurkers would follow.
I set out here on the dark side to help fix this country, I feel obligated because I've seen how bad it is and people need to know about it so they can make informed decisions. You might say it was a waste of time because probably only a few hundred individuals saw it but I don't think so, I think it probably did some good and I had a good time.
I tried for a while on Facebook but you end up losing to many friends and family over this stuff.
And for the progressive liberals on this BB I mentioned above, you were a necessary component, we could not have done it without you....

Sol Dunce, look up current poll numbers...there are multiple sources, they are on this thing called the internet. You will find that Trump is getting his ass handed to him still, and that it's gotten worse the last few days since the debate, they were virtually tied before, now he's lost about 3 or 4 points all around...and he is losing in every swing state, especially the ones you cited.
Try to not sound so stupid all the time...I know that's a big ask for you, and I have little faith that you can do it, but give it a shot.

In all fairness to Todd, Billary is ahead in the popular vote by around 210K. I didn't do the Common Core math on his percentages, but I'll give him his due on that one.
My guesstimate on the popular vote was wrong.
He is having his wrists stitched up...... He'll be back....

I'm interested in seeing Trump's environmental policies. He says climate change is a Chinese hoax. Could this mean he thinks sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide from burning coal is actually good for the atmosphere? And since rivers run downstream to the ocean, they are Mother Nature's idea of a perfect sewer? He did say he has it in for the EPA.
