I honestly feel somewhat comfortable saying Trump as of last night, but this is extremely close.

(Did not know what section this belonged in - move at your discretion, mods)

Hard to tell at this point; Trump will likely get swiftboated (Trumped?) by the GOP establishment. I don't know enough about Labour to tell how they'll deal with Corbyn. Voted Corbyn, but neither of the two will either be President or Prime Minister.

The right answer is Corbyn. Trump will never get enough people to vote for him in order to become president. Corbyn's more extreme, but under the right circumstances, he might actually make Labour look like a viable alternative to a boring, austere Tory government after ten years in office. I don't think this will happen, but at least it's more likely. The bar to become PM in the UK is also lower than the bar to become president in the US.

Trump seemingly has the more extreme personality, Corbyn seemingly has the more extreme policies. So who knows.

Trump. Corbyn's only potential path to a majority would be to promise independence to Scotland, and that would alienate countless centrist labor supporters.

Trump would be absolutely toxic to the minority vote for the GOP, and may just render the party radioactive for far longer than this election, but there is the chance he could get a plurality of the vote + 271 if the election trends are in the GOP's favor and white turnout is high.

Definitely Donald Trump. Corbyn's supporters will probably be purged in time for him to fail to clinch the leadership of the Labour Party.
