Accordin to the media Trump will win as they can't see how Clinton can win given she has lost seats they had pencilled in.

I'm in the minority is that I don't think Trump is that bad, I like his ideology of Make America Great Again, it's a good philosophy, and one of which I wish we had politicians here who would look after our interests first and foremost rather than pandering to the Asian countries...

The problem with that is he's never says HOW he's gonna do it.

Wow. Looks like Trump may pull it off. Amazing really.
Looks like they don't trust Hillary and who can blame them given her history.
At least Bill fumbled and lied in front of everybody, where as Hillary has always done it in the background.
Will be interesting to see what happens from now.
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

If he wants to promote US manufacturing, he should probably keep the Mexicans in. They're the ones more likely to work for minimum wage, keeping US made stuff down in prices, so US residents can actually afford to buy American instead of Chinese.

I've said all along that the Dems have ****** this.
All they had to do was manoeuvre a likable candidate into position. Instead, they put up Hillary.

Other way around. Everyone thought as soon as Trump got the Repubs nominee the Dems were home & hosed.

No way under any circumstances should've this lunatic been even remotely electable.

Yes, they should've gone for Bernie over Hillary but really it shouldn't have made any real difference.

If trump wins how long until he starts dropping nukes?

Co-incidentally, I just had two queries in a row from customers wanting to know if their USA travel insurance policies cover civil unrest.

November 22, 1963 - and they were successful - but thats a conspiracy theory for another time.

Interestingly, assassination wasn't declared a crime until after JFK.

*edit* I think someone may have tried to snipe Reagan too

April 2013. There's been 5 attempts on Obama.
1 on George W
4 on Bill
1 on George H W.

Etc

A better question would be who was the last president that didn't have an attempted assassination attempt against them. Lyndon Johnson I think.
