The 2016 US American Election Thread

The stock market will recover from a trump win pretty quickly. Look at Brexit, you have a reaction to the surprise and then recovery.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Trump win means automatic recession. Markets won't be recovering that quickly. Plus the only uncertainty from Brexit was what was going to happen with the free trade and the Eurozone. With Trump there's about 10 other things that bring uncertainty. Defense stocks are worth keeping, and gold will be worth buying, but the Dow and S&P will fall hard and won't recover for a while with a Trump win.

But has there been a recovery? USD vs British pound is still pretty low.

Good thinking. I also want to grab a 'liar liar pantsuit on fire' fridge magnet.

Yep. World markets shrugged it off, but Britain is still hurting.

Got 3 red trump hats and a "I am a deplorable" t-shirt for some colleagues and I. Had to ship to a friend in NY but it accepted my Canadian billing address.

Curt Schilling thinks Trump will get to 422. Interesting.

I misread the initial quote. I thought it was talking to Britain specifically. I agree, world markets seem fine, but Britain still struggles. I think it would be a similar fate if the US elects Turnip... World markets will get shocked, but will recover. USA not so much.

Cheers

Okay perfect. Have family in the states so I'm shipping there.

Curt Shilling needs to shut up and pay back the $75 million he owes Rhode Island.

Free classic red hat for orders over $75.

That seems reasonable. It makes sense he's a big Trump supporter, he stole $75 million from Rhode Island and only paid back $2.5.

[Senator Clay Davis]

The 2018 Curt Schilling/Elizabeth Warren debates are going to put the Trump/Clinton sideshows to shame.

Schilling? The famed game developer? He could be right, people will be in for a big surprise today.

F that, Kanye 2020 all day. If Trump can get traction you sure as hell better bet on Yeezy.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Kanye 2020 is dependent on Trump winning. Schilling/Warren 2018 will be for Mass senate since Mr. 13 person Trump rally has said he's running against her.

[SportsJunky]

The whole Belichick/Brady thing is a nice troll by Trump. He is no Pats fan. He just likes rubbing the Dems noses in it. The New England area is staunchly Democrat and he loves bringing up that their heroes are rooting for him.
