I correctly assessed early on that Nixon & GWB's Presidencies would be disasters. Since those 2 dudes are like Lincoln compared to Trump, I'm confident in saying that DT's Presidency will be an unmitigated disaster. Filling his cabinet with Wall ST Crony capitalists ( in his campaign he said he wasn't going to rely on such types--------more broken promises ), the "cheeto Hitler's" administration will be rife with corruption & scandal ala Warren Harding, another atrocious POTUS.
Historians widely rank James Buchannan as the worst POTUS for ineptly failing to prevent the Civil War; we are currently in a "cold civil war" & with such a polarizing, crazed & bigoted demagogue, the chances for things "heating up" are quite distinct. Think "1968 redux". His foreign policy advisors are taken from the crazed dredges of right wing media, so a high chance of a disaster occurring in the area of foreign affairs is also great. Now I will inevitably hear from "Trump cultist" GaG saying that my prognostication skills have been off in re to the current election; sho' nuff, that was true, but the day before the election he also thought HRC would be POTUS, along with 90% of this board & oddsmakers, so we can flush that anomaly down the crapper for the time being. Lastly, in re to Trump, I stand by my predictions.Should be mostly erased in the first 100 days !
Cuba deal...gone
Iran deal...gone
TPP ...gone
ObamaCare..53% of the country DISAPROVE of it...gone
Most importantly..the lying, corrupt Obama himself GONE !!!!
The changes in policy on Cuban & Iran will blow up in his face, IMO. TPP being gone is one of the few good policy changes.
As for "lying & corrupt" , BHO has nothing on "the Cheeto Hitler". Wait & see.

Congress for Obama Care. I wrote to both Senators and the Representative but heard nothing.
You haven't gotten anything right in years, you have gotten EVERYTHING wrong in regards to Trump, everything from being laughed off the stage during the debates, to predicting he would drop out of the race the day after each victory he claimed, on and on you went, WRONG at every turn.
I guess getting anything more than a half a day of lucid posts from you is like expecting the truth from LTM, It's just not going to happen. I nominate you as this board's new Chicken Little.
As for me not being lucid, in re to your frenzied reply, "pot-kettle-black".
Lastly, bub, quite a difference in campaigning in a "scorched earth policy" & governing as POTUS. He's already failing miserably as POTUS elect, lying about HRC's popular 2.5 million lead, saying those votes are "fraudulent". Same stupid lying bullshit when he pulled the "birther" nonsense 6 years ago. He knew he was lying then & he's doing the same know. I just guess rubes like you buy his con man idiocy, just like "the Mexican wall" &" All Muslims being excluded from the U.S."
As to me being "chicken little", predictable nonsense coming from someone who has their head up their ass about U.S. political history.

a constitutional clause that will wreak havoc on his Admin..
Exactly.
It's time to seriously reconsider your position.
Cheesy, it's time to "seriously reconsider your position"
Yes, I modified my post. My finger slipped and I posted "MadDiaper" instead of the name he is known as by most. "MacDiaper"

Several months ago I wanted to bet GaG $ 500 on an even $ bet that HRC would be POTUS. He pussied out & refused. So much for his "faith in Trump". Dude, you should have taken the bet, but it worked out for me in the long run-------as it will on the board--------LOL !
Cheesy, it's time to "seriously reconsider your position"
You wanted me to accept even money odds on a bet that paid more like 4-1 at the time. All a "smart guy" like you would have had to do was accept my bet at even money and then take $125.000 and bet on Trump yourself, giving you a "no risk" bet if Trump were to win, but a free $375 if HRC won. Not accepting attempted thievery is hardly consider "pussying out"
For the record, I offered EVERYONE here 1-3 odds on Hillary for as much as they wanted to wager for months when the actually odds were 1-5. You were the one who pussied out, not me.
also, I would like to see anywhere that you offered up $500 of your own money. Isn't that like two weeks salary for you?
$ 500 is pocket change for me, pal. Is there any truth to the rumor that when I paid you the $50 for the Scott Walker bet, it bought you a week's worth of dinners at Mickey D's ?

First off you never offered a $500 wager, you offered to "lay off" the bet to your brother, the "professional gambler" who wanted to wager a whopping $250. Please leave the lying to LTM
and when you finally paid up the fifty bucks that you tried to weasel out of, I left it as a tip to a tica in Costa Rica.
& of course, when GaG is on the defensive about Trump, he resorts to the time weary "weasel lie"----------LOL !
and when you finally paid up the fifty bucks that you tried to weasel out of, I left it as a tip to a tica in Costa Rica.
How do you get a "$5 tip" as how I spent your lousy fifty bucks?
Math is no more your strong suit than English I see.
and your weaseling is hardly a "time weary lie" it's accepted fact by virtually everyone who was here at the time.
Good luck getting his braindead supporters to acknowledge the disaster (and its cause) for what it is, though. Look at how many people around here think Reagan should be knighted, sainted, and crowned postmortem; that man's presidency will fuck this country for decades to come.
As to Reagan, I also thought he was a shitty POTUS, but at least he had the experience coming into office as a successful 2 term governor of Ca ( I lived in Ca when he was Governor )
Trumps "experience" coming into office ? Being a "billionaire" & reality tv show star ? The mind fucking boggles.
Trump has been the "guy in charge" for decades. Obama was never in charge of ANYTHING prior to becoming POTUS. You and the rest of the libs seemed just fine with that fact then. Now that someone from the opposite side of the aisle has been elected, all of a sudden it's a "Yuge" deal. Talk about hypocrisy.
Hey, Pence has got loads of experience, would you prefer him for the top job?
Detest him, but reluctantly prefer him with the nuke codes than Trump.
Now will it come to him replacing DT? Certainly not out of the realm of possibility, particularly with "Cheeto Hitler".
There will be BIG trouble with this administration within the next 4 years; can I place a definite date on it ? No. If I were psychic, I'd be placing big bets when S.S. Trump hits that iceberg.

Care to answer?
I make it a habit not to talk to "low info voters"; lastly, a community College English 101 course would do you wonders.
You have no rebuttal as to why O'Bama's inexperience wasn't an issue for you? OK. As Jack says "carry on."
is like me trying to teach a chicken on how to use a keyboard. Just not worth the hassle & the time.
You might be right about Trump but politically speaking, he is off to a great start with the Carrier coup. There will be many, many more just like that.
Very possible he turns out to be the hero of the middle class/union worker.
If that happens, you are looking at 8 years of Trump. lol
Suck it up Cheesy. Might be a long ride. lol
Now would you like to make a bet that in two years, Trump's approval ratings will slide, when the Trumpanzee's and Trumpanettes finally realize the've been had with zero change to the status quo.....lol. In fact, I'm pleading with the GOP establishment to just blow up Medicare and Social Security and the ACA.

...as he and his policies where no longer in the limelight. People like him when he is doing nothing.
They don't like his disastrous foreign policy, they don't like his biggest domestic "achievement" in Ocare and 2 out of 3 thought we were heading in the wrong direction.
Sorry but his presidency is an epic failure.
But we do agree on your last point. I'm pleading with the GOP establishment to just blow up Medicare and Social Security and the ACA too!
As is mine. ---------LOL
BHO a "disaster" ? I would think that most reputable historians would disagree. He's leaving office with a 57% approval rating, more than your hero Reagan in his alzheimer's induced final year in office.
The only notable pundit that picked Trump to win was historian Alan Lichtman, who also predicted he'd be impeached. For a # of reasons, don't see Trump serving out the full 4 years. Time will prove one of us right------

Suck it up Cheesy. Might be a long ride. lol
And please don't mention Reagan in same breath as Bams as he is regarded to be one of the best, if not THE best prez of all time
As to the election, 3 reasons why HRC lost.
1. The electoral college
2. She was a lousy candidate, not nearly as good as Obama.
3. "Low info voters".
Figured you needed to have the record set straight, JD-------
We were playing poker and your gal won at black jack. lol
And why don't you count all the Dem low info voters? Or is that not politically correct to do so?
So now YOU'RE a Trump supporter, after bashing him for months on this board as a "never Trumper" ? That makes you & DR G the biggest disingenuous phonies on this board, which is saying something.
Glad you 2 came out of the closet----------LMFAO !
And why don't you count all the Dem low info voters? Or is that not politically correct to do so?
Sad you confuse me as a person who actually was critical of both horrible candidates.
Are you still hung over or just need some hair of the dog to set you straight today? lol
& your post seems to be contradicting yourself, a veritable oxymoron.
Now who's hung over ?----------LOL
Are you still hung over or just need some hair of the dog to set you straight today? lol
I am just conversing with a dumbass lib whose reading and comprehension skills are in rapid decline. LOL
I heard Salty has some extra play-doh leftover. Should I have him send you some to cope with your post election grief?
Just being honest---------

Reagan won 49 states. LOL
Certainly in the top 2 or 3 all time to be able to pull that off and that was his SECOND term.
Did the play-doh arrive?
Hell, even a low level political dolt like you could have beaten him-------LOL.
I sat out the Presidential part of the '84 election, which should tell you something.
Certainly in the top 2 or 3 all time to be able to pull that off and that was his SECOND term.
Did the play-doh arrive?
The popular vote, and the people who cast those votes, level of education and brain development have never been a factor.
Are you too stupid, or too retarded to understand this?
More stupid tards, voted for HRC, than DJT.
