Clinton as I've been saying could easily lose this. Her worst trait IMO is her arrogance and it's clawing to say the least. The second worst thing is how tone deaf both her and Bill seem to have become. That they don't get how bad their freaking Foundation looks is in itself astonishing. Plus, they've grown wealthy and set in their ways. The only thing going for them is that the rest of the Oligarchy wants Trump to lose so money won't be an object for them. If she wins its going to be close because nobody seems to like either of them. I know I don't.

I have to tell you, I'm sick of the election cycle more than ever. My enthusiasm is gone at least for the last few weeks. Maybe it will come back. If the nation wants Trump over Clinton, great, so be it. My habits will change because I can't stand listening to the guy, his voice irritates the shite out of me. So. I'll read more, less TV, less internet clips, and let the country have its damn wall, great. The country is falling apart but at least we'll have a beautiful wall that does nothing to stop illegal immigration. Rich people will pay less taxes, so the infrastructure will fall into even more miserable decay, the yahoos will be emboldened to beat up whoever they think doesn't smell like they do, the White House can now become the site of a new reality show, and meanwhile nothing but nothing in this country will improve for the millions that vote for the guy except they will be able to say that there's no n++++r in the White House and that alone is enough for them. Maybe we'll have another war, send in troops into the Middle East, there be relentless scandals as journalaists reveal more and more about Trump's unsavory past and his ties to all kinds of characters. And most of all, the country will continue to dumb down as site like Brietbart gain and science and facts take a real back of the bus back seat. I'm sure I've missed a few points.
