I’ve believed for some time that Trump would win, if for no other reason than that most Americans despise the news media that has conspired so brazenly to sink him even more than they do politicians. Nothing would rebuke the scumbags who serve up the “news” quite so powerfully or lastingly as a Trump victory. But this will require a sensational turnout of voters who presumably have been seething in their livings rooms, undiscovered by pollsters who are as slipshod and sleazy as journalists. A Trump victory would be no shock to me, but I’d still need five-to-one odds to bet on it. The potentially satisfying alternative is that Hillary will get what she has always wished for — up the old wazoo.

I am enjoying tonights voting results immensely!
What I have done is turn on the Fox News cable coverage, and mute the sound, so all I watch is the crawler at the bottom of the screen!
Then every time a State goes in Trump’s column, I pretend this is a vote for Secession, a la 1860!
Great fun, sort of gives you a preview of what is probably in the cards for the USA eventually!
I see Trump representing the old “Silent Majority” of Richard Nixon.
Not an exact fit, but, as Mark Twain said, “It rhymes!”
Rick,
Exactly. There just is no comparison between the two. I even saw a video yesterday, wherein people were admitting to being approached, on the street, and paid to attend one of her rallies. Then you have guest Bernie supporters getting up on stage and saying “Don’t vote for her!”, with the room errupting into applause and cheers. Both videos are very recent, too. So at least some percentage among those pathetic turn-outs aren’t really for her. They just like her money!
Anyway, I don’t know. Maybe they can’t even grab this election, either. But until it’s over, I have to think they can and will. Tomorrow can’t get here fast enough!
Looking at Trump’s Scranton, PA rally and thinking back to all the ones I’ve seen and heard about. The paedophiliac witch cannot even plausibly steal this election, at this point. But I’m thinking they’ve one last trick up their sleeve: the moment it becomes apparent that she’s no better at stealing elections than she is at being Mother Teresa, they’ll call the result “Russian interference” and do an “investigation”. And it won’t take long to provide the “evidence” because Obama already has the intel and security agencies in his back pocket. They’ve probably already got it all cooked up and ready to go.
Yep. Just grab it. Oldest trick in the book!

This is one of the most striking paradoxes of the 2016 campaign. Trump’s rallies have consistently drawn large, tumultuous crowds, while Hillary’s have been relatively subdued and sparsely attended. The news media has largely ignored this in-your-face fact even as they’ve continued to tout a Clinton victory as increasingly likely. This is yet one more reason why, if Trump’s wins, his victory will be seen in retrospect as having been obvious all along. RA
