POTUS 2016

Merica seems to be perpetually in some kind of election cycle to me.

Seems like it's going to be Rubio v. Clinton

 

[dandydan]

Ben Carson?

He's an absolute loon...so pretty good chance

That's the fella. I like the fact he doesn't play the downtrodden minority card.

Clintons just the worst

We like our acronyms; should I edit the title into Brit? Would that be Prezza?

FHL?

SHL?

Where is Pat Paulsen when you need him? (sigh)

Don't know much about it thus far, except that Donald Trumps hair is amazing.

Oh and the friends I know living in Seattle are backing Bernie Sanders.

Seems reasonable to have a single thread for this now that we're officially 12-months out from the election. We could probably have a separate thread just for POTUS vines, but given the failure of the transfer thread segregation, I'll assume that's impossible.

Here's an entirely electable fellow:

Jeb can fix it? That's a bit yewtree!

If somehow Sanders became POTUS it would be a sensation. Imagine how much the goalposts would move here in Britain, a true left wing socialist as President who has already gone on record praising Jeremy Corbyn.

The bookies have Clinton as short as 1/10 to win the Democrat nomination, sadly I think they might be right. As much as I would love Sanders to get the nod I just dont see it.

On the Republican side I think Trump has to be taken seriously, he's been out in front in most polls for a while now. Surprised Carson in one or two has polled above Trump, Bush and Rubio. He's so boring, lacks that X factor needed to be President, I suspect he'll fall away in the coming weeks.

One time favourite Jeb Bush is also dead in the water IMO, the reduction of campaign funds suggests even he believes his chance has gone. Rubio presents by far the biggest opposition to Trump, watching the recent GOP debate he was decent but not outstanding, when they scale down due to drop outs from 10 candidates on stage to 3/4 I think he may struggle to contrain a Trump onslaught.

Im going for Trump vs Clinton. What a blockbuster that race would be.

For those with an interest in politics check out David Axelrods podcast. (The Ax Files). He's had some cracking guest of late on (Bernie Sanders, Mitt Romney)

than trump??

 

[Tubey]

The fact Trump has any kind of support embarrasses the US on the global stage. Rest of the world just laughing at them.

 

[rascal]

Imagine the carnage of Trump as potus and Johnson as PM.
