I love all these people saying that he'll be a "good" or "successful" President

What's wrong with saying that? There is no guarantee that he'll be a failure as president...

There's not, but there wasn't a guarantee he'd flub the transition either, yet here we are.

The conventional wisdom says it's very difficult to unseat the incumbent. We've had two-termers since 19923, or even 1980, if you discount GHWB single term as an exception.

Then again, the conventional wisdom died last election.

I guess what I'm trying to say: nobody has a f**king clue.

I have a f**king clue because my conventional wisdom was correct last election, and I say Trump will be a great President and he will serve two full terms, with 2024 potentially being tossup/lean GOP.

Roll Eyes

I'm absolutely sick of people saying 2016 was shocking. Conventional wisdom said that Trump and the GOP would win, and they won.

You have to be politically illiterate to be surprised about 2016.

We have never had a candidate win the electoral college and lose the popular vote by three million votes. It is shocking and unprecedented.
