Obama = creation of Trump and 8 years of Hillary

Hillary = apocalypse on steroids. God will probably have to rewrite Revelation and make it a 100 times worse.
Is this a prediction for 2016?

Chelsea will get promoted back into the Premiership.

Leicester will win the Premiership for a second time.
Did you tealk about Chelsae ascending into the Premier League? That would have been a joke, right? Or is there a different (and previously existing) definition of Premiership?

In fact I am tempted to offer a prize for the Person predicting most efficiently. The prize will be a RHP Coffee mug delivered to the winner.

Rules:
At least two predictions.
The Person with the highest percentage of hits with non-trivial PRE-dictions wins.
The actual number of succesful predictions will be deciding at same percentage.
To see your prize, please go to Site Map far bottom left column. Attractive Logoized Cup Styles indeed. Nice change of pace thread.

I predict Trump will win the presidential election in a landslide victory.

I also predict that a small number of people will flee the U.S. by crossing the Canadian border. This actually happened after Reagan won running against Jimmy Carter, but most of them eventually came back.
We do have a Problem with the Definition of "landslide" here...But I would Award half a Point at least.

There are still 20 more electoral votes to come in, and at this writing Trump now has 290 of those votes.

I'll make two more predictions. When all of the electoral votes have been counted the final total for Trump will be 300 or more, and after all of the dead people and illegal immigrant votes have been tossed out Trump will have narrowly won the popular vote as well. I'm guessing dead people turned out in record numbers this time to vote for Mz Clinton.

1) Despite the drama "memo" thread and possibly dropping his sub, Grampy Bobby won't leave RHP and will continue to spam the forums and be his usual attention-seeking opinion-dividing pompousness.

2) Landiqueen170 will be discovered to be a cross-dressing gender-switch male hairdresser from Luton.
Nice... way to use this thread as another opportunity to "sideswipe" at people who disagree with you.

Well, you got it half right.

Just like most Europeans when talking about America.

This was hardly a "landslide" when Hillary won the popular vote.

In any European country, this would mean a win for her, so even "half a point" is being unusually generous.

The half point is from prediction the win. That the US system was used was known beforehand, and Trump is not the first president elect with less than the majority of votes...
