no ****, sane people realized this like a year ago
ironic that for all the hate the alt-right has for safe spaces, breitbart and the_donald are probably among the biggest safe spaces on the internet

You may be right based on the poor early voting results
There are obviously a sizeable proportion of the population who are emotionally based creatures - women, cuckservatives and millenials dont like hurtful words- 50% of voters have no skin in the game when it comes to tax breaks, and a significant number actively want to gut the 2A and 1A and would actively welcome a "progressive" supreme court.
A 2nd cold war and a higher cost of living are a small price to pay for being on the Right Side Of History
And thats not even taking into account the mormon hive mind trying to push the McMullin meme
Its highly likely that the regressive left get to turn the US into Sweden 2.0 in the next 2 decades without more than lip service opposition from the remaining GOPe

Of course the polls are accurate.
These companies/universities spend millions and millions of dollars trying to outdo one another to get the most accurate result and improve their standing and reputation in the field.
No amount of unskewing from some basement dwelling neckbeard can change the ultimate outcome.

Time shall tell, brethren. Plan B: Win the lottery (100 million), dump it in high risk stocks, profit, buy a heap of Islands and create the Next New World.

Leaving the childish alpha/beta labels behind for a minute, we have good reason to think that people will identify as liberal due to social pressures but will actually vote conservative when anonymous. This shows up in lots of exit polls showing D victories when R actually won.
That's if you actually trust the process by which votes are tallied, which is a whole different conversation in the era of computerized voting kiosks. The vote tallying patterns through which Romney defeated Paul several years ago are theoretically statistically impossible (final 40% of vote is all for Romney etc).*Equal Protection Clause Advocates Crew*

I agree for the most part, OP. But I don't put too much faith in the polls. Don't forget that only 60% of America votes. This election has energized the populace, and that number will surely be higher. The question is, who will the extra voters vote for? It may be Trump, and it may be Hillary. We'll see.

That's misleading though. 126 million of the 146 million registered voted in 2012. That only leaves 20 million + however many new registrations there have been since.
But yeah I covered that a few posts ago by looking at potential for specific demographics to increase their turnout. Some of Trump's strongsuit demographics have a lot of room to grow.“The life of man is solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.” – Thomas Hobbes, 1588 – 1679

And people thought Romney could beat Obama the day before the election.
This is all hypothetical, but you are underestimating the appeal of Trump for a strong part of the Right.
I meam you have to understand he got MORE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY votes than any other Republican in history.
This means a lot of the apathetic uneducated White vote he inspired would have fallen out of the election if he lost.
A Romney couldn't win without Trumpers and Trump can't win without Romneyites---just to be competitive with Democrats.
And yet these two groups hate each other.
I think the only guy that would have been serious competition to Hillary was Kasich and he is as RINO as you get. He seems more like a Blue Dog Democrat.

No, the polls aren't right.
2016 Trump = 2008 Obama.
The polls are over sampling, and it's been proven that the Establishment is rigging them. 90+ percent of the Media donates to Democrats.
Frank Luntz is a scummy dude who tried to extort Trump out of money back in 2015, Trump told the story at a rally back in 2015. I remember it. Trump doesn't like Frank Luntz and told Luntz to GTFO with his polling services. Luntz is now hates Trump.
Trump has a lot of enemies in the establishment.
If you want a good assessment of the rigging of the polls right now, follow Bill Mitchell on twitter. He constantly examines the polls and exposes them.
I'll leave this here.
2016 Trump = 2008 Obama

Yeah it's a chit argument. No typical (R) had a chance whatsoever. With an establishment candidate, there would've been 5 times less mudslinging. Rubio would've been the typical pretty boy image trying to paint himself as your typical well-groomed (R) politician, while Clinton would tear him down piece by piece, and engender the argument of "failed free-markets" and promising socialism. Imagine Rubio trying to pin Clinton Foundation crimes on Clinton... lmao... real effective
Cruz would've lost 35-65
Kasich is a prime target for people like Clinton. He did well with favorability and head-to-head because nobody gave a fuk about him enough to pay any attention. He was just the quiet "nice" uncle, but really he's a whining bish and would've exposed it the more he was on TV.
Rand Paul was my original choice but the nation ain't ready for him. Would come across as a dweeb
