Donald Trump, the road that might not lead to the White House!

No doubt plenty of people must be considering it more likely after the brexit vote, which almost nobody thought would happen.

It's definitely looking scarily possible now - sounds like Trump is making a big play for the same pissed off white working-class demographic that swung the Brexit vote in states like Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan instead of wasting his time trying to compete in states like California.
 
Trump is now 5% ahead in the polls according to CNN, but as the Republican have just held their convention it is a surprise, the problem now for the Democrats at the start of their convention is that the National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has had to resign after leaked emails revealed DNC staffers favoring Clinton in the primary between the former secretary of state and Sanders.

All the talk from Trump about the "rigged system" is going down well with voters and this email leak just makes his statements stronger, what has been leaked so far is said to just "just the tip of the iceberg" and other emails well be released during this week to undermine the Democrat convention.
 
This weekend someone who is good with numbers showed me some data that is making me think I should vote for Trump. His data suggested that there's a high probability of a major economic crash in the next year or two. I'd rather the GOP take the blame for that. That way, we can run Elizabeth Warren in four years and have some chance of getting it done. However, I doubt the Republicans have the ability to handle a crash with the correct actions needed to make it as short and shallow as possible. It's certainly a dilemma figuring out who to vote for this year.

Could you rely on Warren to run, though?

And President Trump + major economic crash = unpredictable, but predictably unpleasant, outcomes

Thats like cutting off your face to spite your nose. There's no telling what a economic crash in two years time would look like but I'd hate to think about Trump with his hand on the wheel when it happens.

Really - Trump has been actively denying just this possibility for quite some years now.

A very linear way of looking at things. There's no telling what social forces unleashed or enabled by an economic crash would do to US politics.

No, you can't rely on anyone. I do know that Bernie will be too old to run again. As Star Wars proves .... there is another. Sharod Brown would be ok. I'm sure if we thought about it, we could find another progressive to run.

Its a off the record conversation tbh, unprovable, but still/// it does sound like him ;)
 
Even better give back the bits the US took from Mexico

Sorry - Sell back - solves his problem with Mexicans entering the US at a stroke
 
This would also indicate the mass baby murderer and destroyer of nations won't be having quite as smooth a National convention as Trump just had . Bit hard to see where her "bounce " is going to come from. After being caught out rigging the vote a lot of people are absolutely furious . Some polls are claiming 40% of Sanders supporters will refuse to vote for her regardless of him selling out and endorsing this demon In human form .
The DNC looks set to be one massive shit storm .

Sanders didn't sell out. He's a party man, if you are a party man and you lose you back the winner. Its not the right thing to do but its entirely consistent with the actions of a party man

I thought he was an Independent and only joined the Dems to get in on the nomination race?
