2016 Electoral Predictions thread (spoiler alert: we were all wrong)

[Bucky]

I'm just amusing myself with my old hubris. Predictions from August 2016

Good for a laugh, if you don't mind the gallows humor.

1. Unfortunate... we will be soon having concentration camps for Muslims... this is not wrong.

[Bucky]

2. over my dead body

no no no. We're gonna fight and organize and stop this bullshit before it goes there

[MyNameIsKhan]

3. I never thought President Donald Trump will happen ... now this will happen too.. I lost hope

[Bucky]

4. I'm sorry you feel that way.

Hope is like a flower, tho. Sometimes it seems dead. But the spring and the rain and the sunshine always bring it back

Hold on, wherever you are. We ain't done yet.

Help is on the way. I'm in deep red Texas and this year we turned the biggest county in the state a deep velvety blue. This state usually votes 58-60% Republican. Trump only got 53%. Things are changing in our direction.

Hold on. We've only begun to fight.

7. Thank you for your support my DU friend... I will be working harder in 2018 onwards...

[Hekate]

5. The misbegotten Electoral College needs to go. Hillary WON by a million-plus votes.

Never forget that.

[Bucky]

6. Amen

I've been telling people that ever since I got back in here.

(but I still find the predictions funny; esp mine!)
