      No they didn’t. They had Hillary with something like a 60% chance of winning. That’s not “had Hillary beating Trump” that’s “Hillary was more likely to win than Trump.”

        I dont have proof, but I believe it was a hell of a lot higher than 60%

          It was. IIRC, it got up to almost 90% in mid October. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/

          It wasn’t 100%. It’s a forecast not a premonition.

            Some of us play XCOM, 95% chance to hit might as well be 0% when you need 100%, usually means it’s time for a grenade.

    The very idea that 50% of any uncontrived sample of people in the USA would vote for that compulsively lying wannabe dick-tater is appalling.

      The Democratic Pary prefers the worst possible candidate they can get away with. Someone just marginally better than the Republican option.

    Elections aren’t real. The fraud in the 2020 elections should have told Americans that elections do not matter going forward.

      What a lot of bullshit. You realize that even the Republican-led investigations found no evidence of Democratic election tampering, right? The only election fraud of significance was by Republicans.

      How can mirrors be real when our eyes aren’t real?

      People are reporting your comment, but I kinda want to keep it because QAnoners almost never show up here and it’s funny.

      You’re not entirely wrong about elections being a fraud, though[1][2].

        Not a Q follow. Q is propaganda
