How's life in Amsterdam? If Trump wins a 2nd term I have some life decisions to make.

Polls also said Hillary would win by a landslide.

And she did. But unfortunately that landslide happened in states that she would have won anyway. So the fat racist piece of shit nickel and dimed himself a few extra states by 10-15k votes.

Hopefully more than 10-15k in those states realize what a shithead he is.

A lot more to this story, but don't forget the revolt of Bernie peeps after the Wasserman/Clinton debacle. And yes, I remember. But polls serve a useful purpose; that's why everyone still relies on them. Too, "did not vote" would have won the '16 election; as jaded as I am, I would be surprised if that were the case in '20. Sometimes things change rapidly, sometimes at a glacial pace in elections so predictions are difficult. I don't see another 4 years of this thing as a certainty at all as of right now.

What's different now from '16?
Well... I guess the fear that the economy will be obliterated and we will enter WWIII has subsided.
Everything else the same.

For an on topic question, how would you have got the concert if you did go?
On a bicycle?
What are Amsterdam motorists general feelings about bicycles on the road, that they are a menace or is it a symbiotic relationship?

A lot of Dems stayed home in 16, rather than vote for Hillary, and she still won the popular vote by 3 million. Will a Biden/Harris ticket, or perhaps a Harris/Sherrod Brown ticket get them off the couch. I hope so. But trump will go nativist even harder this time, and accuse Dems of being AOC/Omar socialists. He'll actually inspire some more 'deplorables' as well. I have no idea what will happen. Right now, shockingly I'd say he still has the inside track mainly because of states like Florida and PA. Sad. Maybe a 2nd trump term will inspire Perry/Dave/Eric/ and Steve to make good art. Who am I kidding.
