Incorrect.

I said from 2015 on this forum that Trump would win it. Why? Because Clinton lost on every item important to Americans.
  • Jobs vs globalization
  • Wars of choice with no end
  • Establishment politicians selling their position
  • Illegal Aliens
  • Islamic Terrorism
  • Crime & poverty in those Democrat Plantation inner cities.
I said this many times. Do a search history on me. Clinton's loss was because of that. The dog & pony show about her email was the MSM telling you how to think.

I was proved right.


(oh and here's another prediction. In 2018, the Democrats still lose on every single one of these issues)

Your post simply maintains the nonsense.

From Nate Silver probably the most positive on Trump prior to the election...

"The Comey letter corresponded with a sharp decline in Clinton's polling, of a large enough magnitude to change the election result. The media gave disproportionate attention to the Comey letter and other email-related stores. "

The Real Story Of 2016 | FiveThirtyEight

Clinton took the popular vote by a significant margin. She lost by an eyelash. The Comey letter did her in.

Nate Silver? GTFOH He said that Trump had a 2% chance to even be nominated. And when he said it, I said that Nate Silver was going to be eating a lot of crow. I was proved right on that too.

Before making calls of nonsense, you might want to go get some actual facts.

Which he corrected as the campaign went on.

And he had Trump with a 28% chance of winning just before the election...the highest probability of any of the majors.

And he correctly points out the big change in the Clinton advantage that happens after the Comey letter.

In short, Mr. Wang needs to find a new job --- like, bagging groceries.
Nope! He would probably overestimate the number of items to put in a bag and it would burst when I was taking it out of the car!

Not me.
Maybe he would be better digging a hole and refilling it.

Now we all know why Hillary never traveled to campaigns and has a super party planned. They all thought they could cheat and she would win.
Exactly! Not really sure what part of their plan was off, maybe someone became honest at the last minute.

Why are you lefties making such a big deal out of the emails? It just exposed that she was untrustworthy and unfit to lead our great nation. Comey helped America. By the way, 306-232 is more than an eyelash or less.
They are making the argument that if Hillary is nominated in 2020, she is sure thing! This is what happens when one fails to identify the real issue, Hillary was the worst candidate in the history of our country!

Not about Trump, it was about Clinton from the get-go. Remember Comey defended Clinton initially despite how his agency as a whole felt about that.

I'm fairly certain a lot of minds were made up by that point. You are just using Clinton's talking pints about being a terrible candidate who The American People despised. Comey did help America by exposing Clinton for what she really was. A liar, traitor, thief... I could go on and on.
I'm telling you, Hillary is still running for POTUS!

I do believe you are right, but am guessing you missed "Trump will never be nominated."

Top of the page Trump at 28.6%

Further down the page you can see Clinton lose ground and Trump gain until the second Comey starts it going the other way...but not enough time left.

The Real Story Of 2016 | FiveThirtyEight

Clinton took the popular vote by a significant margin. She lost by an eyelash. The Comey letter did her in.
It wasn't the Comey letter that cost her the election; she cost herself the election on September 9th. Keep in mind that public opinion does not move that quick. On SEP 9th she gave a speech in NYC, I quote from http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-me...-deplorables/:

"Speaking at the LGBT for Hillary Gala in New York City on Sept. 9, 2016, Clinton said that Trump’s supporters were "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic."" In that same paragraph you can see that "Trump said the remarks showed "her true contempt for everyday Americans."". But he did not have to say that; we already knew that.

Your side will never learn; you catch more flies with honey. Once you insult half the voters they will never, in their right mind, vote for you! As smart as Hillary likes to think of herself; she was stupid!
