Fox was saying how Minnesota is looking good for Trump, but Hillary is definitely ahead according to their map online. Do they expect rural votes to come in later?

Thank You to all Patnetters and the Man Patrick himself.

Thank You BIG LEAGUE to Mr. Julian Assange, I named my boy after you (and Julian Cope) and you did not disappoint. In fact you succeeded. May you be pardoned ASAP. He's been sitting in a tiny room for years upon years. "Many Bothans died to bring you this information".

It took a decendant of Disobedient Celts mixed with Taiwanese Pirates to do all this.

Also to James O'Keefe III

Thank you UKIP and Mr. Nigel Farage, for the Inspiration.

Thank you Sargon of Akkad, Cernovich, Scott Adams.

So what's your bet on Trump's first move? Self serving and stupid? Or right to work on actual issues?

The senate is about split down the middle. The house is going Republican. This is bad because it means that Democrats can't block Trump's agenda no matter how crazy. It's up to the Republicans to be the voice of reason. Good luck with that.

The Republican establishment hates Trump, and now they are either going to have to obstruct his policies like he was a black Democrat, or they will have to own his policies, and that's going to cost them financially if Trump at all follows through on his campaign promises, which is a huge IF.

Trump wasn't supporting the economic agenda of the RNC during his campaign. Unless he changes his tune, the Republican senators and representatives will either have to fight their own president or go against the financial interests of their cronies. Image if Trump actually did something on immigration. Farm profits would plummet. Image if Trump actually did something on trade. Corporate profits would plummet.

It's going to be interesting to see the GOP squirm over the next four years.

Still, it would have been better if the Democrats took both houses at least for Trump's first two years.

Rew - no.

Hillary was a much bigger risk for global conflict than Trump.

For all of Trump's flaws, he's much less ideological and far more pragmatic than Hillary and her merry band of neocons.

Hillary actually, out loud, proposed a no-fly (against Russian aircraft) zone in Syria.

The fact is that he is going to change a lot less than he promised.

In the economy he will have no effect

He will not build a wall as it is a moot point.

Where he could be useful is to repeal Dodd Frank and Obama Care

Most of all a much lower risk for war.

No. Let's be correct here. She was the standard expected conflict. You now have a wild card. Ask the higher military if they like wild card over known enemy. I shit you not, I worry for my sons now. They are in the draft target for something which could be horrible.

I agree with all except the last. His mouth is gonna write check we cannot cash. We are about to get walked over in foreign policy. You think Clinton was bad ... watch.

Come on, bro...this isn't accurate. It's not like Trump sets the laws. The biggest concern I have is Trump being the 5 star general.

And steadfastly refused to answer if she'd shoot down a Russian Plane, on national TV.

One thing to do it to a Qaddafyi, but you don't be coy like that with a 1000s of nuclear warhead armed nation.

Wisconsin should be called by 12:45.

Even w/out Michigan, that will put Trump @ 249 electoral college votes, which takes him over 270 with addition of New Hampshire, Arizona, Iowa, etc.

He does not appear to be a neocon. But don't know for sure

Where's HydroCabron?

Where's neplusultra57?

Where is CIC?

After this election the Democratic party leadership must resign en mass! What a failure! Even if Clinton squeaks in.

Where is puerto rico?

No. However, the veto power of the president is very strong when the two houses are close to evenly split. And the president does carry weight in pushing the party's platform.

I don't see Trump as the type of person who will submit to the will of other republicans. His ego won't allow it.

Trump is pulling further ahead in PENNSYLVANIA WITH 92% OF THE VOTE IN.

This is nothing short of a historic, wave (nay, TSUNAMI) election.

Not only is Trump getting Reagan Democrats en masse, but he's actually getting white OBAMA VOTERS.

This is a BLOOD-BATH FOR DEMOCRATS & HILLARY.

Clinton gets NV

She has as much chance of squeaking in as Bill had of getting that dress dry cleaned.

I love this guy's quotes from tonight on 538:

"HARRY ENTEN 12:14 AM
Trump has to be one of the oddest vehicles to prove certain theories about presidential elections incorrect. I had long thought that Democrats didn’t have a blue wall in the Electoral College. I had long thought that demographics weren’t destiny. Yet I didn’t think Trump would be the person to disprove these theories."

They should call Wisconsin now.

It's gone Trump and she can't get it back.

OK, Hillary can technically win if she wins all three of PA, WI, and MI, but that's highly unlikely.

WTF is up with the polling that misled on this?

wolf keeps going back to nevada cause he likes to see a blue win...

Massachusetts passed legal dope

My guess, quietly lurking.

So it does seem to actually be true that either:

1. People were just not willing to tell pollsters their true level of support for Trump because of fear of the PC police.
2. The pollsters were simply lying.

Polls are narrative devices. They are used to influence and not inform.

They weren't polls at all. It was misinformation designed to frustrate the vote. Make Trump voters seem like it was futile to vote.

You can't take human actions as a data set, and extrapolate their future actions by plotting them on a chart

We're not so easily solved creatures.

We gamblers know the word well: Unpredictable

Trump will win Wisconsin 100%.

He's very close to winning Michigan (16 electoral college votes) and is hyper-competitive in deep blue Pennsylvania.

This is surreal.

Michael Moore warned his fellow libbies this was going to happen and they laughed in their Ivory Towers.

Oh, how they laughed.

The sad part is that the pollsters did very little to hide the fact...
