[QUOTE=OmniConsUme;50666523]FiveThirtyEight said the Opposite was true, there is no "hidden Trump voters"[/QUOTE] In the video itself Destiny even points out Trump only had 13 million in the primaries, but would need fucking 65 million votes to win the general. Hope the "silent, hidden majority" is real, considering hes losing a) minority voters b) women voters and even c) even more republicans as he's getting pinned down for answers that many don't agree with
[QUOTE=RichyZ;50666634]tbh doesnt really apply in the general election, hillary beats trump in nearly all polls and shes rolling in cash whereas trump is very low energy, small hands, and cannot raise a measly 100 million much less 1 billion for a "man" to claim that he knows the art of the deal, he sure is being outdone in that area by the hilldog tbh[/QUOTE] Except for Rassmusion Polls, Which after looking at the Crosstabs [B]HIDDEN Behind Paywall[/B], Might lose 538's C+ rating.
[QUOTE=Blazedol;50665419]sure, but the fact that trump has no experience as a politician prior to this election is pretty fucking discouraging. he may have an interest and studied up on politics, but that's not quite how it works and most people know that, which is why every president ever at least had a small role in the government before becoming president, even the shitty ones. Trump has nothing, he'll either treat the government like something it's not, or just not know how to treat it period.[/QUOTE] While Trump has never held a public office before, he has been active politically since atleast 1988, and I'm pretty sure hes picked up a good amount of knowledge in those 28 years, probably not as much as Clinton (for obvious reasons), but enough to function if he does win. [QUOTE=Paramud;50665504]Considering how many enterprises he's run directly into the ground I'm not entirely sure why you want to bet on those skills.[/QUOTE] Please list all of the enterprises hes "run directly into the ground," and then list all of the enterprises hes had that were successful.

I'm not saying that in a trump win, the first 6 months or year of his term wont be pretty rough though (because chances are, it will)

His stubbornness and refusal to ever admit wrongdoing will cripple his ability to work with the legislature, and his active contempt for our current justice email system and libel laws indicate to me that he would have similar problems with the judiciary.
