Title: CLINTON VS. TRUMP
Post by: Chris on November 04, 2016, 03:47:12 PM
...annnnd go!

 :slap

We got about 4 days left to go. I got my money on Trump winning. Are either a good choice? No. Are either one of them going to do the country any good? No.

No matter the outcome of next Tuesday. it's going to be a very. very sad day for us Americans. For those of you geeks reading this from other countries... I apologize ahead of time.

My money is on Clinton. She has the electoral map sewn up unless Trump flips some traditional blue states (and that's not out of the question).
Either way, I hope we're both wrong.

It's close enough that I'm waiting for neither to have an electoral majority (because Johnson-Weld might actually win NM and NH) that throws this into something even worse than Clinton-Gore.

Oh without a doubt after Wednesday we STILL won't know who the real winner is. My guess will be by December we will know who the true winner is. Either way we're in for a shit show next week.

thunder3davis 2016. I'm writing him in. Problem solved.

Does anyone have the shitty webcam pictures of him posing with his (fake) Ak-47 lying around? That would really make my day...

I'd share those, but all of my time is taken up lately by the video game I'm coding in VB.

I'll vote Trump just because I've been wrong the last few times so I'll go with the opposite of what I really think.

I'm probably wrong again.

LOL!

I will never forget right after the towers fell on 9/11 he was IMing me on AIM telling me how he was hacking a pay phone in downtown Manhattan to get an internet connection as he was looking for (I think) his aunt. God I wish we could track him down for entertainment purposes. It was almost like someone created a fake account and was posting trash to give us the impression he was that dumb.

No worries, rumor has it that you can vote twice on Tuesday. Vote for both so you're not wrong and can sleep well with your decision.

BizB and I tracked him down last year.  You don't want to know.

Seriously.  You don't.

Concur.

Also, if there's a tie - or neither gets the required EC votes - is it the current Congreff or the next that decides? Either way, I think it would go to Trump.

Ok... did some quick searching and found what appears to be his twitter account. Looks like he needs/needed a kidney back in 2015, but then back in May of this year it looks like he was into Shemales. What in the...

If that's the case then he's only about 20 minutes away from me. Probably with some sheboy right now.

Yup... I'd say we're in for a show.

...It just really sucks that it came down to these two. It's unfortunate that it was Hillary and not another woman whom everyone could get behind in good conscious to vote for. We were so close to having the first female president and we had the wrong woman nominated for the job.

It's a shame that we had someone like Trump as the other candidate because change is something the nation and economy needs.

What a freggin' roller coaster. Facebook has blown up with people outraged that their candidate didn't win. It's alright though... once Sunday rolls around everyone will forget about this when their precious football team plays.

Y'know, if people remembered that we have commonalities - even those as superficial as which sports teams we follow - maybe we wouldn't be such a divided country. I want to believe that, anyway.

This. Exactly. Exactly this. I was so excited and then I saw who the nominee was and my heart just sank.

Yea, I don't think this morning's chain of events really helped to mend the divide in the country. Then again even if Hillary won it would be a similar backlash from his supporters, too. Pure craziness this go around. It was like Batman having to save Harvey Dent or Rachel.
