I wish I were this confident, but if there's a terrorist attack in the run up to the election, or some of the Clinton scandals stick, or both, and there's every chance President Trump will be in charge of the most powerful military in the history of the world.poprock wrote:Trump is in danger of becoming the Republican nomination for President.

The possible danger is minorities not coming out to vote for Clinton, while Trump somehow energises the Republican vote to an incredible degree. The logic seems to be that the Republicans simply can't win the White House ever again without getting a big chunk of the Hispanic vote.davyK wrote:To win does one not need a sizable proportion of ethnic group support?

It might be of course that all the mad shit he tried to do just wouldn't get anywhere, and things would carry on as normal (i.e. still shit), just with an especially large twat at the helm.
