The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

The number of coinflips right now puts Trump in a better position to win the EC, per 538's model.

With a red president, a red senate and a red house, and a red SCOTUS... This is terrifying. I expect if the projections are right, we'll leap back a decade or two in terms of social progress and a few years of horrible foreign of domestic policy.

I think Bernie would have the same problem in rural areas that Clinton does, possibly to an even larger extent.

This is where I question the idea that Bernie would have done a lot better. Trump's mostly overperforming in rural areas, which isn't where Bernie would have outperformed Clinton.

If you examine the portion who are voting against Clinton and not for Trump, it's far more than a large enough portion to swing the election.

Apparently so.

And it's a good chance too.

The fact that you guys have a good shot at electing that guy is absolutely insane.

Its looking more like hes going to win actualy. Wisconsion and michigan both need to go to hillary or she loses and thats not looking very good.


Michigan just looks like it is done. Even tho there are large amounts of vote yet to counted out, the rural vs city remaining votes even out and trump rocks the rural area this year.

NV and AZ should be going blue that would push it back the other way.


I'm worried about WI and MI though. I think Trump wins at least one of those, and then it's lights out


Clinton pretty much has to win Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin now and I'm starting to get really scared about the future...

If by chance you mean an 81% percent chance to win on NYT live election coverage then yes.

You can think whatever you want about his ideas, but the fact remains that he has been the most authentic and well-meaning presidential candidate the US has had in a very long time.


Forgetting Ron Paul?


Trump = well-meaning? Is that a joke?


I was talking about Sanders.
I would never call Trump authentic and even less so well-meaning...

Man, a 90 day ban bet.
that took balls.
Props man.

No shit. GGTemplar is a hero.


Have to let Kwark apologize to Nettles before he gets banned though (if the impossible happens and Trump wins).

option?

Also since I made 2 of them I'll be getting a 180-day ban if I lose the bet.

So I'm really hoping WI/MI don't screw me over here

Kwark should just admit defeat and not take the ban.

Greater than 50% chance. He's more likely to become president than Hillary is.
