Wait... what?
Grampy Bobby led the way in 2015 with stuff about psychotic jealousy, the stinking vomit of posters he didn't like, premeditated liars (people who disagreed with him about suicide), jungle savagery, comments about people's dead relatives, and about their ability to be spouses and raise children, about their mental illnesses, etc. those "Standard of Civility", presumably. 😉

And your best reaction is to pick up a pitchfork and a torch and go after him incessantly?
Do you always react so awkwardly overboard to offenses you imagine people are making? Or just to people who dare to disagree with you?

Well, I am simply reacting to Grampy Bobby's hypocrisy regarding supposed "Standards of Civility". While there are others here who sometimes utter invective just as ugly as Grampy Bobby's, they don't also browbeat the forum over and over again on the topic of "civility". Thus, they cannot be accused of hypocrisy. I wonder if you see yourself as wielding "a pitchfork and a torch" when you tackle me for pointing out Grampy Bobby's chronic and unrelenting hypocrisy on this particular issue.

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.

Woohoo! One right at least! (Although my prediction for Hilary Clinton to win the Democratic nomination is still looking the certainty it appeared at the start of the year...)

There is this problem for Drump: his unapproval rating is higher than his approval rating, not a good thing if you are after the presidency.
It would be a disaster on many levels if he actually got the presidency. He knows zero about foreign diplomacy, and is a reactor rather than professional in dealing with people.
Personally I think he is a sociopath, most big time players are.

Factors that work in Trumps favor:
* Two terms of a Democrat presidency. The last time I remember a party holding on to the white house for more than 8 years was Reagan followed by Bush.
* Hillarys personal problems (Bill) and professional reputation, i.e. personal server and Benghazi, to name only two.
* There are a few other factors I could list, but maybe later. I couldn't help noticing how all of your negatves about Trump describe Hillary as well. A lot will be said about both candidates before the November election. But like I said a few weeks ago at the debate forum, I'll let you know what I think of him after (not before) his first year in office.
