Wil isn't a Trumpster. He's in the "left wing, but sane" group. Real Trumpsters are tickled pink.

As for me, I think it's hilarious how wrong the "experts" were. They were even told they were wrong, and why they were wrong, and they were so dopey/stuck in their own little circles of feedback looping groupthink that they didn't even consider it.

I didn't bet it because I didn't see excellent odds. Clinton at 60% or so was about even money. Which means, if you had a functioning brain, you shouldn't have taken Clinton above 40% or so. There were deranged clowns putting serious money on Clinton at 70%, 80%, thinking they had a sure thing. The lefties in vanilla lacked a functioning brain.

Trump may have been a good bet at 20%. Not sure. The trading I do involves better risk profiles so I saw no reason to put any money on it.
This is a solid troll man. Victimhood culture exists overwhelmingly on the left, both in policies, theory/academia, and media commentary.
Some of the talkback radio is grievance, for sure. When Trump creates jobs and fixes the racism, stupid policies and grievance-pandering of the left, I don't imagine you'll be wrong.

Pretty mad I didn't bet Clinton at 48% the day after she collapsed. Had value.

Didn't see excellent odds? c'mon, man, you had great odds if you thought Trump was a favorite.

Like, "the betting line was way off and you were a ****** if you didn't see it" and "the betting odds weren't good value" are mutually exclusive, my dude.

I thought Trump was a dog before Comey, although not much of one. I didn't think Trump was a favorite until Comey. I thought he was a dog after Comey retracted on the Sunday.

The only thing I think was "******ed" was the idea that Clinton was a lock, or really anything above 70%. You had to have no clue about anything (math, statistics, how polling works and the assumptions that go into the numbers, how people think, how various events affected sentiment, the truth about the issues in play) to believe Clinton was a near lock. Any other opinion was fairly reasonable.

I was certain trump was going to win going back to fall 2015. It was so obvious he was going to win.

I'm amazed so many people were so off on this.

This is exactly why it was so obvious trump was going to win. The fact they thought she was a lock and how many on the left wanted trump to win the primary.

The left is wrong about everything so clearly they weren't going to be right about wanting trump to run against Clinton. Thinking it'd be a shoe in for her.

It would have been a shoe in for her if Cruz or Rubio had won the nomination.

Going through the election betting thread...

The amount of money wagered on Clinton after the Comey letter and before the retraction is mind boggling.

You'd have to be insanely biased to believe that letter had no impact and therefore pump hundreds of thousands after that letter came out.

I think idiot under tittle is called for.

It's a hilarious read. They thought they were getting a bargain!! And it's not like the polls didn't give clues. Many moved +5 Trump in the days after the Comey announcement. Yet the idiots were still reading and quoting the averages which were of course weighting pre-Comey. It's quite an amazing misunderstanding of both the issues and how undecided and slight-lean-Clinton voters would be affected.

The effect was so profound that even after the retraction stalled Trump's momentum and moved the polls somewhat back to Clinton, he still won 306-232.

Not counting the final EC result after defectors.

Trolly McTrollsonn, you seem like on of the least insane among a group of lunatics. Can you see how insane you all are?

This is the containment subforum for horrible posters, ofc we all crazy here.

And what empirical method decides "terrible posters"? Whether Mr Wookie is an angry or a happy drunk that day?

Who blabbed?

Even with a biased poll structure tilting it in his favor, Jiggs is +11 net idiot right now while Wil is only +7 bigot.

The irony...

TS, you seem to have punted on that dumb premise you tried to claim victory on XMas day... Why? Don't wanna double-down on the fact that you missed the point entirely, i'm sure.

And, that main point is that Jiggs is a buffoon.

Either that or we all missed PO along with the experts.
