Those results of 50% of forecast are going to be a wet dream in a few days, along with CNN.

Looks like Buzzfeed is trolling for investment money from Soros.
This Fake News story was an audition for Soros.

Too bad the US taxpayers can’t cut the budgets on the fake intelligence agencies that fed BuzzFeed that garbage by 50%.
