My FaceBook post... Oct. 28th. It was in the air. Stupid liberal’s.
“Can’t wait to see all the expressions of shock, confusion, utter disbelief, abject despair and fear on the faces of the media, political and corporate criminals on election night. The night they realize the American people have called them out for their massive corruption, conspiracy, coordinated deception and outright lying. All at the huge expense of the American citizen. Then, REAL investigations need to begin. Go out and vote.”
It sure was. I think I knew - really *knew* that it was going to be a great evening when I saw that DU was claiming to have been "hacked" and went into bunker mode for the duration.
On September 29th, we were at my buddy’s place for a football party for the Nebraska vs Illinois game. In the evening after the game, we were all pretty liquored up and got to talking about the election. A couple of my friends were saying that they thought Trump was done. I told them that he was going to win and win in a landslide. That got the attention of several more friends and acquaintances who joined the discussion. I explained about reading a lot of the Wikileaks stuff and seeing the email that talked about using the polls to push people to assume it was over. I told them that it seemed to me, based on Wikileaks, that the media and polling people were trying to “gaslight” the Trumpers. I said that based on that information and the rallys and what a horrible low energy candidate that the Clinton campaign was smoke and mirrors..
Needless to say, most of them said that I was full of it and it was wishful thinking. I placed some bets that night that left me with a pocketful of twenties a few weeks later. I made the same bet with one of my friends at work who was convinced it was going to be a wipeout.
I have never been so happy to be right.
When our liberal snow bird neighbors left last March to go back to Massachusetts my husband told them Trump would be President when they came back this year. They laughed.
