So, is there anyway that Hillary can win re-election in 2020?

I would hope not, but at this point, the US feels like a one-party system with the Republicans being a bit of a joke since like year 2000.

This is going to be a colossal landslide and Trump is poisoning the party against anyone who may run in 2020. Meanwhile Clinton just showed herself a beast at this shit. I don't think it's too early to place money on 2020.

Rand Paul would have gotten destroyed. Libertarian policies are indefensible. Hillary would have ate his lunch.


Yeah, some libertarian ideas are pretty neat...

It's just problematic, since they can all be refuted so easily with an emotional argument that doesn't have merit with the average demographic.


Libertarian has the problem of having to apply the idea to everything or the believability of the idea goes way down. That's how you end up with things like Johnson saying that we should be "allowing consumer-driven market forces to reduce over-harvesting and ocean pollution" despite that having been the disastrous situation that has us talking about ocean health to begin with.

Their software is a clusterfuck and does this sometimes. It takes a while.

That's not the point. If it serves no purpose, then don't have it.

In the same way TL doesn't allow homophobic comments to allow everyone here to feel welcome... Don't make these kinds of polls to make other people not welcome in this thread. Hillary supports outnumber the Trump supporters here, but no need to crap on them.

There's proof it happened to the first poll for sure, I think the mods found the spoof IP or something.

R1CH confirmed it. And because that's the kind of election we're doing this year I guess. If reality says Trump is losing then reality must be corrected by the Trump fans.

We went over this last debate. The results don't reflect the reality of TL for starters. Also R1CH says they're getting botted, end of.

Every single cycle due to demographic changes it gets harder for republicans to win the white house. By 2020 itll be very hard and by 2024 virtually impossible barring a massive change in the party but the membership wont let that change happen.

You know that I was just like, legitimately asking right?

The mods can look at what's going on and who's voting in the polls.

Pro-Trump botters have bombed every click poll they can find on the internet for every debate.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.
