    Why would the election be "A Close Call" ? ...

    According to Goldman Sachs anyway. Personally I can't see it.
    It might not be a landslide, but it could be, after all, who
    would Trump be up against ? Buttigieg; Does anyone really
    want a queer President and his 'husband' as First Man ?
    How about a Woman who lies about being a Cherokee Indian ?
    Bernie might come closest, but he's a raging Commie.
    All of them are completely ignorant when it comes to economics.
    Per the saying; you can fool some of the people, but I very
    much doubt the people as a whole are as dumb as the democrat
    wannabes. Where is the 100 Trillion for their programs going to
    come from ? Oh right, the Money Tree that grows only in D.C.
    in Elizabeth Warren's back garden. I forgot about that.
    Biden ? Forget him. No chance even if he ran, which he won't -
    his party pals will see to that.

    Trump rubs a bunch of people the wrong way. Hey DT you still on a green card? If not, when did you naturalize?

      Dogtag does not vote, but certainly frets over it. Maybe he's a ex-felon, Togor?

        It's far too early to start predicting the election. All we can say is, if people vote their pocketbooks (and they often do) Trump has a serious edge.

          Why would anyone want to go back to a failing and stagnant economy? In my area there are very few who are not happy with the current economy and for good reason. What had been a poverty pocket now has more jobs then those to fill it and why? The simple answer is HOPE, something that has been sorely lacking from either party for over 50 years. Hope for a better future, hope for our children and grand children. Obama kept saying that the jobs weren't coming back and that only government built that, not understanding that our people built that. The National Socialists are building their need to regain power on one childish ideation and that is FREE! Only the addled minded will fall to this false promise, as nothing is free. In conversation I have asked people who will pay for these "free" things that the National Socialists promise and their answer is the government. I then ask them where does the government get their money and then the light bulb starts to flicker. Those who have will be ordered to give more to those who don't is the simple answer that I give to them. They then realize that thru their money only a small part will return to them and that upsets them. Their "free" will cost them more then if they provided for self, they can have more by not voting in those who will now take from them. National Socialists like to use the "but" answer to confuse with the you didn't build that lie. National Socialists use a spoonful of truth and a gallon of lies to lure one into their warped thinking. All one has to do is to read here their "but" rebuttal. A spoonful of truth and a gallon of lie to cloud the issue. One cannot argue with them as the cancer of deceit is firmly enthroned into their warped thinking so why try?

            Economies go in cycles. Booms followed by busts happen because balance sheets expand in unsustainable directions. The housing bust happened in large part because the pool of qualified home buyers who were also in the market for houses dried up, and so to keep commissions coming, the financial industry ginned up ways to keep loans coming and to mask the increasing risk that was entering the system. When defaults started going up as balloon payments came due, consequences followed. Trump wants to keep a debt-fueled expansion going as long as possible. He wants budget deficits at the Federal level, and cheap money at low interest rates on corporate balance sheets. If the party goes on long enough, the results are as predictable as what happens when you throw a tomato in the air.

              And the economy was just the tip of the iceberg. Along with that we had further racial division, the corruption of the DOJ and FBI, money sent to muslim countries, thousands of corrupt judges appointed, government over reach at all levels and lawlessness.

              Giving away "free stuff" that taxpayers pay for is the only hope democrats have to get votes. That and promising illegals they can become citizens if they vote "commie".

              Yeah, hold me back, I want more of that kind of s**t for America.

                Because the more people who depend on government for a living, the more power the National Socialists have.

                Remember, Obama called 1% growth in GDP "the new norm" and seemed perfectly happy with that.
