Aren't you leaving in like six months?
TTH France meet 2018.
So he's definitely flipped Florida, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Nevada?
Florida was always a stretch goal for Clinton.
Her "path to victory" was going to be what she'll win, in addition to Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire (she might get two or more of them - looks like four is off the table unless something sensational happens). States with large populations of disaffected poor white rural voters who (rightly in part) blame the establishment for their decline in fortunes.
Trump is a disruption candidate, although I find it hard to believe he'll actually improve their lot in any way.
This women on Sky keeps brining it back to fighting against 200 years of men.... it's a WOMEN!!!... Fuck off.
I'm not sure. California is 55 guaranteed votes for Clinton, and there are a couple of other safe votes still to come in. There's very little margin for error, but she could still do it.Originally Posted by Yevrah
Clinton's probably done in Wisconsin, so her only realistic path left is basically holding on in Pennsylvania, coming from behind in Michigan and flipping Arizona.
It's over.
First WWE Hall of Famer to become President.
In January I'm going abroad for six months; in respect to that this is probably the worst thing that could have possibly happened.Aren't you leaving in like six months?

Beyond that I should be in Canada for his entire term minus summer vacations. Silver linings, right.
ALL HAIL MERT... TRUMP IS PRESIDENT.
The spectacled geezer on the BBC is trying so hard to convince himself this won't happen.
He's won, I'm sure.
How long until this shit is over?
Touching on elth's PATH TO VICTORY, Arizona has gone Republican every election since 1952, bar one.
For a Mr Bill Clinton. Clutching straws?
Tempted to be a petty twat and write to the guy who straight up called me a racist for defending Trump a few months ago in Denmark.
Trump winning the election doesn't make any of his previous racist or misogynistic shit any less despicable.
Meh, won't be any worse than under Bush. Plus it's not like we're the kind of people that will get fucked anyway.In January I'm going abroad for six months; in respect to that this is probably the worst thing that could have possibly happened.

Will he follow through and put her in jail? What are the polls saying?
Pro marijuana measures are passing all over the shop, so at least Democrats in a lot of places can spend the next four years blazed.
Her 'path to victory' was him being a complete and utter berk. Let's not all row back on it now. This was supposed to be a fucking walkover.
On the list of things I thought I'd never say, this is right up there: Man, I hope mert was right.
Specifically, the bit about sensible Republicans handling Trump behind the scenes to make sure he doesn't do anything too outlandish.
True. So glad I was wrong on this one.
That concession speech will be glorious.
I'd suspect mert is right - There's no way he's going to be allowed to get his bucket a spade out and start building a wall with one hand, while flicking the clit of the warheads launch button in the other.On the list of things I thought I'd never say, this is right up there: Man, I hope mert was right.

And to flip it, I remember how wonderful everyone thought it was in 1997 when Blair/New Labour came in and look how that turned out.
The best part about all this is that Hillary will now view her life as a failure. She probably only stayed with Bill to climb the political ladder. Useless, lying bint.
I've just tuned in now and seen Clinton is ahead but for some reason Trump is big favourite.
While I catch up, is this the American version of Brexit?
There's no way that Donald Trump is winning the general election. We've been through the looking glass for a long, long time.
I didn't ever say there was no way he'd win.
That fucking hat.Of course he's from Texas.
Similar. Pollsters clearly underestimated the rage and commitment of rural and suburban voters to make clear their dissatisfaction with the status quo.
I might have to buy one of those hats.
What I can't get my head around is that instead of trying to receive the message they're being sent, the 'winners from globalisation' as I call them stick their fingers in their ears and call people stupid for defying them.
What I'm saying is that we're so far into an alternate reality that you really can't make any assumptions anymore about politics in this country.
Channel 9 here has it Clinton 197 Trump 187
And now they're chanting "USA! USA!" What a crap country, but I'm really looking forward to the next four years.
Are Slats and Tubby hosting the coverage?
Canada's immigration website has crashed.
I told y'all. God bless America. I am drunk, fuck the pussy cuck liberals in your fucking sanctimonious smug faces.
Let's see now if all the celebrities who promised they'd leave actually do so.
Mike Novak will try to convince him that launching warheads is a bad idea and if that doesn't work (it will) Jack Bauer will take one for the team and shoot him in the face.
I mean, seriously, does anyone genuinely think this will lead to Armageddon? He'll bumble through the next four years, realising that being president is actually a bit of a pain in the arse and that he can't really change much, before the Democrats get their house in order and put someone up against him next time who's a bit better than a fishwife.
Michigan likely to fall back onto Clinton's side in the next half hour or so.
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin still big trouble.
Yevbet:
Trump - 1.05
It reminds me of an anecdote I read a while back from a pollster. They mentioned that whenever they were asked to do polling for political groups of either stripe, the questions were never "what are the concerns of the people we're talking to?", and always "what can we use to bring around the people we're talking to what we want them to think?".
I didn't think that much of the anecdote at the time, but it does kind of mesh up with the idea that people feel disenfranchised and like they aren't being listened to, which has to be the takeaway message from this election. Well, that and the US has a sentient cheeto as their President for the next four years, of course.
Where's the twitter seethe then? Surely the keyboard warriors on there aren't still in denial?
If Michigan goes to Clinton it could be problematic.
I wonder if establishment Republicans will feel threatened by this result. They probably should, but they might not realise it yet.
I am also curious to see how Trump manages the evangelical voters. Freedoms, once given, are very hard to take back.
The 'white man' really is a bastard.
I bought a hat, mert, mate. I'll wear it out when it arrives and I'll probably get my head kicked in.
Close. Good old Carl "BANTS" Stefanovic!
Obama would've walked this, btw. Term limits are bullshit.
Hate to say it, but you've probably earned that.
