I mean this purely in a "Back to the Future" sense. When Marty is trying to tell his grandparents that Reagan is the president in 1985 and they ridicule him. It is just setting in for me that an entertainment figure like Trump is actually winning actual states in a presidential race. | ||

At its core Penn and Michigan are not closing or looking good so far. Winning those states is nice for her but the moment they call Penn and MIchigan they are basically calling the election (though if they call FL first its also calling it). | ||

If anything people are talking about how overvalued the stock market is with QE being hard to understand its effects this far after its done. fed is waiting for december but there is the possibility of letting the economy overheat for a bit, get inflation up and then gradually raising rates. | ||

Should be interesting. If Trump wins VA then we're in for a very late night I suspect. God knows why anyone in the military would support trump considering his hurling of insults at the generals and admirals and military leaders of this country | ||
