Clinton has a safe base of 270, enough for a default win. Trump has a safe base of about 190. 80 are in play among 6 key swing states. The election press has turned these 6 into constant news coverage but the reality is that they're not important for Clinton, only for Trump who needs to win all 6 and flip a 7th from Clinton's safe states. If the 6 are performing roughly as expected then we shouldn't expect large polling errors which means Clinton's 270 base should be fine. | ||

You CANNOT just impose a 35% tarriff on stuff imported from Mexico without some SERIOUS economic issues coming from that. Edit : Gold up another $15 in the past 10 minutes. | ||
