Neither. Trump will drop out for "medical reasons" and Clinton will be indicted.

You may be right. Somebody may take a shot at Trump, and Hillary is likely to be indicted.

Somebody give this man a raise!


That said, Hillary will win between her and Trump.

A week ago Trump had the momentum, Hillary has it and stronger than Trump ever had it. Provided his Monday speech isn't Oscar-worthy he has quit a battle.

Hillary. I'm voting Democrat (which means her.) This following post is a good explaination of why it will happen.

Yes, to answer your question, it is total hypocrisy, but that is to be expected from Trump. Heck, he's actually German born, but pretends to be of Swedish decent because the guy was afraid "Jewish bankers" wouldn't loan him money?! You got to love the layers of bigotry and hypocrisy there!

But the GOP laps this clown up, and it is disgraceful. As we all know, Hillary is a rotten person and this election has produced two of the worst candidates for president in a long time, but by any objective standards there simply is no reason to vote for Trump. There isn't a single personality flaw in Clinton that doesn't also exist in Trump, and often to a worse degree. There isn't a single sleazy or even borderline criminal action that Clinton would take that Trump wouldn't also would take. Republicans jeer and spew about how Trump is going to "fix" America? Based on what? His track record of destroying everything he's ever touched? Or perhaps his record of exploiting the currently existing system to get his way? Yeah, sure - he's going to dismantle the system that granted him his power and which turned a man who should be a total laughingstock into a wealthy presidential candidate... Right...

In the end, people need to see this election for what it is, and perhaps a good analogy is voting for the head of a crime family. Yes, you're getting a sleazy, ruthless person. It sucks, but the chance to fix that passed a long time ago, and even when given better options (such as Sanders), the voters or system rejected them. So, your choices come down to:
  • Hillary "the Fish" Clinton: She knows how politics works, is capable of making appropriate decisions, has an acceptable track record, and understands diplomacy and how to get the job done. Sure, she's not NICE or even GOOD, but she can do what the job requires
  • Donald "The Hair" Trump: Just as heartless and selfish as Clinton, but lacks any relevant experience. Has a long track record of destroying everything he touches while he alone escapes with the loot. Immature, lacks any diplomatic abilities, has limited communications skills, and is unable to admit to when he's wrong. Also prone to violence and bigotry.
Given those two candidates, the choice should obviously be for Hillary since she is objectively the better candidate, even though NEITHER of them are as good what this nation needs, though perhaps they are what so many citizens deserve.

We would have a very different political landscape if CD posters had their way for the last bunch of years.

I vividly remember the countdown to Obama leaving office threads 4 years ago.

I don't know who wins, but I don't like any of those who are running.

Hillary will get the bright spotlight put on her. It will blind her like a deer in the headlights and she gets run over by a tow truck pulling a septic tank sanitation truck. They get out to see what they have done they only see what looks like sewerage and smells the same. They drive off and media runs with the story like Jimmy Hoffa and Hillary is never found.

Trump is president and does such a good job they add his likeness to Mount Rushmore.

Some food company starts marketing Crack-O-Jacks again and photos of Mitt Romney working at a fast food joint flipping burgers is the prize.

So everyone is happy as we greet the plane on F.I.

Right now it favors Hillary. If Trump can turn this into a serious campaign and not make anymore dumb statements then it's possible he could win.You'll have a good idea by August though. Whoever is leading in most of the polls by then is likely going to be the winner.
