Lol!
The problem is the second part of my prediction.
Power will not fade lightly or easily.
At all.
Wow...I'm impressed. I wasn't convinced that Trump, wanted to win, could win or should win until around August. Pretty prescient. Just hope we manage to skip the assassination part...although I'm seriously afraid of the possibility.
I pray that the Lord sees to it that this one is not to be.
Bump!
We’re getting closer...
Suspension of the election could have Unintended Consequences.
Bump to an excellent post!
My final bump on this thread.
Why did Trump win?
Because as an average American guy, I think he would sit down with me and have a beer for twenty minutes.
We would talk about my first fear, which is war - nuclear war. But he would assure me, he knows Putin and it won’t happen... kinda turns out we have alot in common with the Russkies.
And I would talk about immigration, how your average American basically feels forgotten and left out now. Everything seems to be all about immigrants and how fantastic they are. He would assure me that more than anything else, Americans come first, no exception.
I might mention veterans, not being one myself, and how trashed by the government I think they are. He will tell me to not worry about that, that is being taken care of, no matter what or how much money the banks can make, the veterans are going to be number one!
Then I would talk about good lookin babes and his wife yada yada yada and he would tell me I went a bit too far, but hey, he gets it, and I will never even touch it, then I would sadly agree! Damn, to call this guy misogynist is the stupidest thing I ever heard...
And I would talk about the banks. That they never seem to have any consequence over anything that they do. He might inform me that he is going to try to reinstate Glass-Stegall and a few other reforms that were abandoned.
And that would be about it! I would say thanks, it’s been great talking to you, and he would climb into his chopper and leave!
I know. It’s a stupid fantasy.
But you get the point, and I hope The Donald does too!
This looks like one of the first threads where Trump was seen as a serious contender for 2016. Others on this thread were horribly wrong.
He did it!!!
I still barely believe it myself, but he did it!
Trump bump!!!!!!!!
Yeah!
Interesting! BTTT!
So you voted for Hillary, I take it?
This is one of my favorite historic FR threads!
I voted for Pedro.
Seriously though, a lot of minds changed over time as the election progressed. I voted for Trump in the general and am glad I did.
