Any sensible gambler would go for Trump. It’s a good price and he’s got a chance.’

WASHINGTON — As the Brexit polls closed the night of June 23, then-UKIP leader Nigel Farage predicted a loss for his Leave campaign. Much to his delight, that prediction turned out to be quite inaccurate.
Now Farage has some wisdom to impart on his friend and fellow populist agitator Donald Trump as the U.S. polls close and the results roll in tonight: Keep your mouth shut.
“My advice to Trump is say nothing,” Farage told POLITICO by phone today from London. He added that “I feel just as I felt on the day of Brexit.”
Farage told reporters the night of the referendum that it “looks like Remain will edge it” and blamed young voters for depriving the United Kingdom of its sovereignty. “Either way, whether I am right or wrong, if we do stay part of this European Union, it is doomed,” he said.
Several hours later, the results from working class northern Britain started flooding in, turning the tide and delivering a victory for “Leave.”
Based on recent statements, Trump is unlikely to give in easily tonight if he loses — he even said Tuesday, “I want to see what happens, you know, how it goes.”

What do they mwant still? Even that stupid RCP average had him within two electoral votes.
Face it. Hillary has won. Big.
Now, concentrate on your household’s survival.
Whaaat? Don’t think so. He is ahead from what I’m seeing on early reports and if he wins Florida it’s all over for Her Hellness.
10-8-2008.
Surprised you remembered your password that long.
Forget predictions. Just get out and be sure to vote. Vote Trump!
LOL. You can at least wait until the polls have closed, doofus.
DU’s hacked so you posted that crap here?
He wont be on much longer, I suspect.
It is only around 5:30 pm. Not going to throw in the towel 3 hours before the polls close. Do not care what anyone says. It is an odd year.
Why respond to an ###hole?
My guess is it’s pistols and cyanide capsules in your bunker tonight.
Just voted for Trump. MAGA incoming.
‘Cause I want to fight everything.
Wow, I’m glad you are not in charge of defense.
Whatever happens, they will never convince people who have watched massive rallies for Trump (and anemic rallies for her) that she has won fairly. There have been enough stories about voter fraud to make anything but a blowout suspect.
Yes! I’m from CA and we worked hard to get people to vote even though they felt it was a lost cause. There’s other people on the ballot and the more popular vote a candidate gets the better.
I still believe Trump has a very good chance of winning, so the two reasons I listed are still important.
Go nuts.
I hope he is at Trump Tower
