US Presidential election 2016

[Magic]

Not yet.

Not sure where she pulls them back from here.

Not sure where she pulls them back from here.

She desperately needs to hold Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Michigan.

I think she will win Nevada, which if she holds those 3 she wins right?

Just the way the night has gone, you kinda feel Trump will pinch one of them.

If Hillary can pull it out of the fire, then it's been a remarkable night...

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

It's game over. Like 2015 and Brexit...knew I should have put money against the polls.

I did...

Yep.

I think she will pull back MI but WI/NH is gone.

 

[TractorBoys]

Can't believe SkyBet aren't offering me a cashout. I might email a complaint. More money than sense!

 

[nousername]

SkyBet offering 14/1 for Clinton...!

Looking at the projected outcomes is it that unlikely she'll win?

Needs Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan and Wisconsin.

 

[TractorBoys]

Bet365 put her at 20/1 for about 20 minutes before dropping to 9/1... clearly a few non-believers took advantage

 

[TheMinsterman]

£10 on Clinton at 9.8 and then another at 17.5 at Smarkets, 250 potential win on a small risk.

Wisconsin projected for Trump now. That would end it.

She was 8 points projected there...

 

[markwwfc1992]

This along with the Brexit vote is a massive vote against the establishment and the PC brigade. A huge win again for the silent majority.

 

[Nilsson]

I get that people are fed up (to say the least) with the status quo but to elect Trump? President Trump? wow, the most powerful country in the world has a moron as its leader. Voters have massively underestimated his incompetence

The dems nominating Clinton has proved to be an absolutely shocking decision.

 

[TractorBoys]

Shy tories, I've said it for weeks. Still quite unbelievable.

So then Mr Trump, will you be standing by your promises - will there really be a wall?

I can imagine US riots either way. If you think the divisions to date from this election are bad then I think you should brace yourself. Trouble ahead.

 

[Renegade]

Just shows what an awful candidate Hillary Clinton is when despite having the huge advantage of the women's vote, she couldn't beat a half-literate demagogue. The Democrats pretty much rig their own primary every four years, they have fucked up royally by putting in the groundwork to back Hillary as soon as Obama won his second term. Brexit II, party lines don't matter as much as class division and Clinton's campaign based on identity politics did not speak to the little guys who think they are taking power back from a corrupt political system. And I don't blame them for a second for thinking that. Congrats USA.

The wall will cost five times that of the Hoover Dam and will most likely act to increase illegal immigration!

I tend to agree with your final sentence. I hate politics.

 

[RavenBish]

19-3

can't see Clinton winning from here

Good prediction

That's why Mexico are paying for it. Smart.

They're both votes won by an economic system that is only. Rnegiting the very richest. Trickle down economics is not working and this is the blow back from it.

There is nothing PC about not being openly sexiest and racist.

 

[TractorBoys]

For new members, "PC" as stated above means "Poltically Correct".

Examples of correctness;

"All muslims are naughty" (NOT pc)
"Us security is of high importance and we must recognise ALL threats"

What can we learn from these statements?

Trust nobody. But don't distrust muslims anymore than you distrusts sikhs, for example.

 

[TractorBoys]

or Christians obv.

Please don't misquote me. The American vote tonight is a vote against the establishment and against the PC brigade (amongst many more things), which it most certainly is

For the record I'm not over the moon with Trump. Quite frankly it scares me that he is about to become the most powerful man in the world. I had no preference on either as Clinton is as untrustable as they come, but she was certainly a safer option

 

[AnimoEtFide]

Is there not supposed to be some conspiratorial network of global elites that stops shit like this happening?

 

[TractorBoys]

Trump did say it was rigged. Didn't mention it in the acceptance speech though, wierd?

Anger leads to hate

But enough about Alfreton's season...

 

[Pagnell]

Fucked up. Scary shit ahead.

One thing I have been wondering about is all the pictures of women screaming whilst holding up pro-Trump placards with "Trump For Women" or some other such bollocks written on them. Given his comments on females in general and his alleged criminal sexual activity with some women who have come out recently, you really do have to wonder what kind of mentality a woman would need to possess in order support him full stop, never mind in such a public manner. Fucking bizarre.

America showing once again, despite their power and might, why the rest of the world has the square root of fuck all respect for them.

Saw a few of them with placards saying 'Trump for Hispanics' too...

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

It's not just an American thing though. Brexit, Marine Le Pen, Viktor Orban, Norbert Hofer, Geert Wilders, there's a certain discourse gaining traction...
