He’ll likely lose - but Trump is the final warning to elites

Donald Trump will probably lose the election. But he is a final warning. Unless political elites of both the left and the right become more humble, unless they once again ask themselves how their agendas will play in Peoria, the next rough beast might slouch over the corpse of the republic.

And we know Hillary is ahead how? Because the mediots say so and are in agreement like they have been all year?

The mainstream media announces whatever they are told to say on a daily basis. HRC headquarters to MSNBC.

They follow instructions like the regiment of handlers blocking the view and throwing her unconscious lard *ss in the back of that black van.

This election is over. There is a 98% probability that Trump wins in a landslide. People do not see it yet but it won’t even be close.

I cannot even let my mind go to the idea of Trump losing. If that happens, I might just go crazy.


I was absolutely disgusted with our country, life, even FR after Obama won. Especially the second time.

I was only disgusted with FR because it was too rah rah here, people who were concerned that Obama might win again were trashed, only cheerleading was allowed. That is happening again exactly like 4 years ago. I really want Trump to beat her with all my heart and soul. But the oligarchy would do ANYTHING to remain in power and Hillary is their girl.

So I am concerned. I’d love for election night to be the happiest night of the American year. But I can’t COUNT on it because of 2012.

“...Trump in a landslide...”

Let’s hope so. Lot’s of gloom and doom out there today.

Pray Trump checks his ego and spends more time talking to the American people about the issues they care about and less time defending himself on Hillary’s insults and accusations.

THE SECOND COMING

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.

The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

William Butler Yeats

My blood boiled when I read this. Everything I read is anti-Trump. I pray he wins if he doesn’t, we’ll never come back. If he loses, no more Republican Party. I will be the first to go.

I don’t think the elites care. They will pick up and move to areas where the populace couldn’t get to them. They need to be made aware that we will hunt them down.

If Trump fails, someone bigger and stronger will come along and win.

This is a movement ... a change that is waiting for both parties really.

**If Trump loses, it will be due to voter fraud.**

Remember when Romney won the popular vote but Obama took the electoral votes?

Pray that doesn’t happen again with Trump taking the popular vote.

He hasn’t lost yet.
But typixally a “change agent” fails in the first attempt. IE: Goldwater.
But the needed change comes- just at a greater cost.

This is becoming fantasy land. He could be beaten by a sickly, lying, phony, cheating, mentally unstable socialist lunatic? If she gets in and we go to war, God help us.

Why do you think its true that Trump will lose? Do you keep up with the polls? Do you give a moment of rational thought to the fact that Trump is tied or leading in most swing states? Have you given any thought to the fact that most polls are manipulated with overweight to Democrats far beyond any conceivable 2016 turnout? Trump is likely winning by a much larger margin than the polls show.

Most polls are currently weighted democrat plus 9 or 10. Obama won in 2012 with Democrat plus 2. Do you really believe Hillary Clinton will get an equal or better turnout than Obama did? I don’t think so.

Chillingly as the Obama regime keeps advocating for World War III, this report continues, the American people are being kept from knowing how close their nuclear destruction is by their propaganda media—but cannot be said about the Russian peoples as their media, on a daily basis, is warning of this “direct military confrontation” that is on par with the Cuban missile crisis that, likewise, threatened to destroy the world.

To how the American people are being kept in the dark by their government about the greatest threat to them in all of their history, MoD analysts in this report write, is due to billions-of-dollars of propaganda being spent to keep them clueless by the Obama regime—and that newly released documents in Britain show that government is now doing against their people too.
