Yeah, so, the 1950s then. Maybe some lives will be lost, but almost none. Society will be largely stable. There's no potential for civilization to go i to the ditch. I seriously think people have become so complacent that they don't understand how bad things can be if the wrong person is in power.

I thought it would be New Era, but it turned out to be witty instead.

Apparently so are the majority of Americans, but don't fool yourself, the people you're exasperated with will just double down on them.

Face it, not even Donald Trump saw this coming. You don't have a cash bar at your victory party if you think you're going to win.

I can't speak for other mods, but considering the kinds of things that have been said and done by people to the moderators on this forum, I can honestly say I will probably only ever physically meet someone on the forum if someone I already know personally vouched for them, and I'd still think twice. There's been some truly bad people Flames fans during the years.
Not to mention that the mods volunteer their time. They don't get paid. I guess if someone wanted to pay standard lawyer fees maybe an in person hearing might be possible lol.

The polls weren't really that wrong when it comes to Clinton's numbers, it was Trumps's they undersold. Didn't push hard enough on undecideds, and the third party stragglers broke good for Trump. This is a miss, but not a huge miss. These are all very close wins for Trump besides North Carolina.

Well that's the exact definition of a swing state, is that anybody can take it. PA is the only true wtf as it consistently polled Dem the entire way. It's not astonishingly wrong for states going back and forth to go to Trump. Popular is off by a couple points.

I'm already cringing at what his speech will be like. Likely a lot of bragging and childish bulls--t.
