HRC wins in an electoral landslide, however I do expect the popular vote to be very close. Republicans will keep the House with a much smaller majority. The Senate will be a 50/50 tie between Democrats and Republicans with Vice President Kaine casting the deciding vote. We will have complete gridlock and chaos during the first two years of Clinton's term, with House Republicans members carrying out impeachment hearings of Hilliary Clinton, they just never learn. Why? Hatred of Clinton is the one thing that unites the Republican Party. The GOP leadership, to keep the Trump crazies from coming after them, will allow impeachment hearings of Hilliary Clinton to proceed. However the Senate requires a 2/3 majority to impeach the POTUS, so it will fail.  I also expect Senate Republican's will filibuster Hilliary Clinton's nominee for the SCOTUS to death.  

The midterms most likely will find the GOP regaining a solid majority as the country realizes what a horrible mistake they made in electing Hillary. The rest of your predictions sound quite plausible to me. Expect that the impeachment hearings against Hillary will most likely be for actual "high crimes" and not simply for trying to cover up a blow job like what happened with Bubba.

Mistake, how so? Nothing except impeachment hearings and filibustering of Clinton's SCOTUS nominee is all we will hear about during her first two years as POTUS and not much else will get done. Independents are not dummies, they will side with Democrats during the 2018 midterms and give the Democrats control of both the House and Senate. Poor Paul Ryan he's in for a miserable next two years with members of his own caucus.

and I can only hope you are right about the gridlock. That's the only hope I have if Hillary is elected.

what else comes out on Trump. Rumor floating about that he used the "N" word on unedited "Apprentice" tapes. If THAT comes out-----

...........being any different. Not many people predicted Trump's rise to become the GOP nominee. So, yes I can see the 2018 midterms being very different from "normal" with the GOP completely over reaching in their treatment of Clinton and in the process driving millions of independents and highly educated women voters to the polls in 2018. Independents will expect an up or down vote on a SCOTUS nominee, regardless of who it is. If GOP Senators decide to filbuster the SCOTUS nominee for the next 2 years, I expect the House and Senate to switch over to Democrats in 2018. Also let's not forget, Trump has zero intention of slinking off into the shadows, he will try to figure out a way to monetize his tens of millions of supporters as well as have an outsized influence on the future direction of the GOP. The GOP civil war will begin in earnest after the 2018 midterms.

the argument, to the American people, that a former president is not qualified to be a Supreme Court justice. That would have me rotflamao!  

.........Minorities are notorious for not showing up to vote during the midterms. Picking Obama as SCOTUS would be an ingenious move by HRC and a big kick to the gut of the GOP. Trump supporters would go BSC.

He places $500.  

HRC wins in an electoral landslide.  We become further involved with the chaos in Syria's civil war, by proxy and corruption selling weapons to keep the final phase of pipelines in their country.  Russia will send nuclear ships towards Syria, keeping Britain and our allies on alert for WWIII on the horizon.  The USA will continue to foot the bill to protect the globe.  I wonder if we would see an industrial stimulation to our economy?  And if congress will be forced to pass a military budget?  And curious if HRC can handle the tough decisions with a TBI.

He and Hillary might even give each other a big hug and kiss.

My guess is that Ryan will keep a majority, but narrow, and that what he'll lose are the moderates of his party.
I also think the Senate will go to Democrats. But that's maybe more a hope than a prediction.

& so are you. Check out more credible links : http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton-5491.html.

This poll has been an accurate predictor since 2004.

So black people are not supporting Trump!

Charlie Cook is backing up, what I was saying all along.
Trump was never going to win, no matter what the polls said last month.
Also I know, you hate Trump too.
It was more about the hype, than real facts last month.

The man has never served a day on any bench.  He was not ready to serve as President/Commander-in-Chief and that was obvious from the day he took his first oath of office.

I know all about President Taft.  And, like you said, he had previous experience on the bench. And that, combined with his time in the Oval Office, qualified him to serve on the Court.

It was forty Supreme Court Justices without, prior judicial experience before becoming Justices.

 But, as voters proved in 2008, qualifications mean nothing when it comes to being elected President.  And they did it again this primary season when they nominated Trump.

Make sure you vote early or get the polls first thing on 11/8/2016.  Some black folks might not realize this history about Trump.  

We all know Trump is a racist scumbag and that is why you are voting for him.

Republicans don't have 2020 vision, so all they can foresee is that they have to make America's progress as slow as possible and squeal about what an awful person the President is.

he never worked as a judge.  And the bigger point is this: The Supreme Court should never be treated as a popularity contest.  Unfortunately, the Presidency already has become one.

 Also let's look at the President law days.  
   
 Obama entered Harvard Law School in the fall of 1988, living in nearby Somerville, Massachusetts. He was selected as an editor of the Harvard Law Review at the end of his first year, president of the journal in his second year, and research assistant to the constitutional scholar Laurence Tribe while at Harvard for two years.  
   
 So he accepted a two-year position as Visiting Law and Government Fellow at the University of Chicago Law School to work on his first book. He then taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School for twelve years, first as a Lecturer from 1992 to 1996, and then as a Senior Lecturer from 1996 to 2004.

 I guess this President being a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, is not enough for you.  
   
 The final point is, with a approval rating of 55%.  
 http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/06/politics/obama-approval-rating-new-high/  
 Most would disagree with you about his Presidency too.

I think Sheriff David Clarke should really be quiet, after some of his current dangerous comments.
