Many predictions have been made over the past several years about Trump, politics, and the economy. Which one has had the most reliable track record of predicting the future so far?

Given that Krugman predicted an economic collapase if Trump was elected, and all the others predicted findings of collusion and impeachment, the answer is clearly the tasty Chinese cookies, although those magic 8-balls outdo them all.

Question: Are Democrat voters the new "useful idiots?"

Answer (after a good shake): Signs point to yes.

This poll pretty much confirms my suspicions. The leftist propaganda machines are actually less reliable than random guesses.

There is only one poll that counts ... The Election Day poll.
None of the above got that one correct in 2016.

Does anyone really think the list above is suddenly going to figure out why they were all so wrong? Not a single chance they will work it out. That suits me just fine.
