NYT says Trump at 53% chance to win it all

looks like Brexit to me

 

[GTP_Daverytimes]

Hahaha, very funny stuff. Trump is the next president it seems.

 

[neurosyphilis]

Trump is really going to be our President. Jesus fucking christ.

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

are we gonna see a bush/gore scenario?

No, this will be clear cut

 

[BajiBoxer]

It's not over. But I will say this:

As an African American woman, I am so so disappointed. I know this country still hated me and the rest of us minorities, but I didn't realize that it was this widespread. Trump should have never gotten this far. I'm so disappointed tonight. It has less to do about the presidency, and almost everything to do about knowing how the general white America feels when he/she looks at me and a very large portion of the country. Disgraceful. Whether Clinton wins or not, very real learning experience this has been.

Yeah, it is pretty sad. It was sad the moment he actually won the Republican primary. I don't like so many of my fellow Americans voting for the most overtly racist and evil candidate in recent memory. Even in the event of some kind of blowout, his getting this far said a lot about how terrible many of our fellow Americans are.

 

[Akoi]

This is the most insane election in the history of this country I swear...

 

[Kinitari]

I think the quote that captures the fear people have I just heard on the CBC feed "a Trump win would look like this, in the beginning"

 

[jmelons]

Fish at a fish fry. Yup.

 

[old]

I wonder if Putin is staying up to watch this or if he's sound asleep...or wrestling a bear.

 

[Goro Majima]

This wasn't ever going to be another 2008 wave I guess despite the demographic shifts (even though I thought otherwise)

We just had 8 years of Obama and aren't coming off the start of the worst recession in ~80 years and 5 years of the Iraq War. Throw on Hilary's baggage and here we are.

 

[cruets]

This is depressing. When we gonna get some good news?

 

[ronaldthump]

I feel quite sickened by the idea he will win.

Jesus.

Actually feel physically ill

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

You guys are pissing the bed so early.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Tapper calling him Drumpf

 

[grumble]

lol, this is funny. Hope Mr.Trump wins.

this is really serious no matter what your social and economic beliefs are and no matter where you live. He could for example easy fuck over Europe.

 

[echoshifting]

I can't believe I have to sit through an hour long choir recital as this is happening

I'm gonna lose my shit

 

[jstripes]

I remember being disappointed in America when George W Bush won. I remember being even more disappointed when he won again.

That disappointment pales in comparison tonight.

 

[victreeb3l]

I feel sick

 

[TheContact]

How is this happening ???

 

[Brazil]

Clinton's coming back in VA

You don't say.

 

[Sunster]

The empire strikes back

 

[BlackGhost]

 

[sjay1994]

If Trump wins, Canada needs to build a wall to prevent all the American's who want to leave America... and we should make America pay for it.

Spoiler

I'm so sorry you guys

 

[Hex]

So GAF, how is that landslide for you?
How is that "can never happen" thing going for you?
Alot of unexpected turns so far

 

[sunshine and gasoline]

Man, what a wild night this has been.

Don't fail me, America.

 

[Big Nikus]

Wtf is going on GAF! All I've been hearing from CNN is "It's crucial that Trump wins Ohio and Florida to have a chance to win!"

2 hours later...

"Trump has won Ohio and Florida!"

Wtf is going on? I'm from Canada, please explain!

I'm from France and starting to lose my shit. Please GAF tell me it's gonna be okay.

 

[Rentahamster]

8 or more years of progress going down the drain. Conservatives will have house, senate, SCOTUS.

Even if it is Trump, he's a hell of a lot less "conservative" than a Bush, Rubio, or god forbid, Cruz or Huckabee.

 

[computers putin']

Sad time to be a minority in this country. I mean it always has been, but it still doesn't stop today from being depressing.

 

[megarockexe]

You have the media and internet memes to blame. For popularizing Trump for the lols. The post-fact world will be terrible for everyone.

 

[chromatic9]

GAF right now

 

[The Incarnation]

People, the red wall of the midwest, Ohio and FL were expected to go red.


Relax.

Into Trump's arms embracing America.

 

[MM4nson]

Did the UK decide the US election?

No, but is the same situation. During the night here in Europe the Remain was strong, but after 3 or 4 hours the nightmare was real.

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Still not over folks.

Don't freak out quite yet.

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

So... the BBC polls were somehow more accurate than polls posted from the US? I'm not sure what's more embarrassing. Also I can't help but feel that there is something wrong when early voters were largely Hispanic and minorities and already collected votes don't show that. What, did the machines flip them to Trump?

I'm also guessing democrats vote later in the day, which means they should also come in later on the counting process.

I really can't believe any decent person would vote Trump.

 

[Lastgengamer]

WTF Trump is winning the popular vote right now?!

 

[DarkHeartedKill]

Dammit The Simpsons, you've doomed the US with your prediction!

 

[CrispyBoar]

Come to Canada guys. We're all welcome arms.

How do I sign up for a Canadian citzenship?

 

[friskykillface]

Diamond Joe Biden would have crushed trump

 

[Odrion]

hillary may have been a big mistake

 

[RageWaffles]

I can see why you'd say that, but recall that Al Gore won the popular vote, overall in the United States, but lost because of the electoral college point system. (I think I'm looking at this correctly lol)

Yep, you're right. Gore won the popular vote, but lost the electoral college (and thus the election). And that's what that picture is showing right now.

 

[SuperSah]

NYTimes:

54% Trump and 46% Clinton chances of win.

 

[JordanN]

is America really that ignorant??? They really want to go back to the stone age???

Well....

 

[Toparaman]

If Trump wins, or if Hillary barely wins, someone has to serve up the hundreds of smug, supposedly well-informed NeoGAF posts over the past few months about how Trump is basically just handing over the election to Hillary, how the situation is not at all comparable to Brexit, how the generals are totally different from the primaries, etc. That way I'll know which posters to never take seriously again.

 

[Betty]

All the people telling us to wait and see are really silent

 

[Dosia]

President Trump

 

[Shalashaska]

Clinton is leading by only a percentage point in Wayne County, Michigan. That’s a county Obama won by 48 percentage points. Either that result is wrong, a lot of the vote in Detroit (which is in Wayne County) is out, or the map is looking very different than it used to.

538

 

[White Wolf]

No, this will be clear cut

in which direction you'd think? it's not looking good.

 

[Wes]

Trump's Virginia lead down to 25k.

 

[Laieon]

I don't understand all the people rushing to grab a drink. You really gonna stay drunk for 4 years??

I'm an American living in Korea (they drink 2x as much as the average Russian). So yeah, that's what it's looking like.

 

[jmdajr]

Lol.
