Play Nice 2016 US Presidential Election Part 3 - Trump d Clinton

[Orange Agent]

There was genuine betting odds of 150/1 when he first threw his hat into the ring. Unbelievable stuff here.

 

[HenrikLundqvist]

Krauthammer looks like he has aged another 100 years in a few hours.

 

[Yidaki]

They would be right.

It was always going to the democrats.

I'm flicking over to CNN for the melts.

I prefer trump to clinton but the dems should really take back the white house in 2020, especially if Castro or M. Obama run (assuming trump wins today). I believe both parties need to reform... who would have thought the dems would reform first.

We say that but I reckon Trump's developed enough of an irrational following that he could win reelection no matter how bad things get

 

[walsingham]

The more you look at it the more Clinton looks like she's stuffed in all of Michigan Pennsylvania and Wisconsin

These two people ran two of the worst campaigns in political history, it'd look like Clinton's run a worse one despite greater resources

Should've let Bernie get it eh?

How can you possibly call Trump's campaign a bad one?

Up against pretty much ALL the media and even his own party.
NO support from wall street.
Spent a fraction of his opponents.
Was supposed to be crushed.

 

[Elroo]

Leaking state secrets for a start.

And her daughter for embezzlement from the Clinton foundation to pay for her wedding.

What?

 

[bradrowe#32]

This is a staggering result.

 

[Richard Pryor]

Without Florida Clinton is done. Worst candidate in modern history.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Anyway, in the spirit of playing nice, moving away from pointing out how terrible some posters are.

Hillary wins Florida, North Carolina and Nevada. End vote looks like below (give or take an electoral vote or two based on split allocations in that a couple of states do). Wouldn't surprise me if she also wins Ohio and pushed Trump under 200 EV, which by anyones measure is smashing.

So i was very wrong. Really don't know what to make of it. Trump is going to win and win fairly easy by the looks of it, flipping states like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennslyvania which shouldn't really have been in doubt.

As a corporate professional in a large workplace everyone here is in shock, this will have long term ramifications for the australian economy, and not in a good way, if Trump institutes even half of what he's been saying.

 

[Cooldude]

Russian hackers not gonna be the only ones breaking down Clinton firewalls tonight

 

[iBeng]

The establishment only has themselves to blame. Lots of laughs to be had over the next few days and years

Holy shit this quote is on point.

 

[QuietB]

He will be assassinated before the end of his term

By who?

Doesn't matter.

Sanders would have appealed to the same demographic as Trump.

So he would have appealed to those who hold anti-establishment sentiments, the disenfranchised working class and the shrinking middle-class.

 

[james Dean]

Michigan is looking very very dangerous for Clinton, most of the remaining areas are conservative strongholds.

Look I think a Trump badge is a good idea.
We gonna make one. The best badge you've ever seen, you better believe it. It's going to be outta sight. But the crooked interests and the powerful elite who run BigFooty won't have it.
Only you can make the badge, If you make it, I'll take it all the way to BigFooty HQ and kick those corrupt admins out for all BigFooty posters.
We're gonna make BigFooty great again, believe me.

Mof, Hillary surely should be in this years honorary bottom 50...

 

[Richard Pryor]

Wonder if Trump will legitimize or jettison Alex Jones?

They've almost conceded, no energy from any of them

 

[walsingham]

Without Florida Clinton is done. Worst candidate in modern history.

Which is why Trump ran in the first place. It's was supposed to be Hillary vs Jeb.

 

[igon value]

Paul Krugman already blaming the Green voters who would have voted for Bernie, despite the fact his favoured candidate was highly unappealing

 

[JeffDunne]

The scary thing about Trump winning isn't just Trump.

Can you imagine the people he's going to appoint to his cabinet & senior positions?

 

[Fletched]

Amazing how many people didn't give him a chance

That would be pathetic. If the Republicans got their way it would've been a 3rd Bush running against a 2nd Clinton this election. Now the Dems are looking at a 2nd Obama.

 

[VineyIsLORD]

Talking head on Fox just summed it up brilliantly.

Trump has turned the Republican Party into a populist party, there is now no conservative voice in America.

That could be a bad thing (think Fascism) or a very good thing (genuine democracy).
