Short answer "yes" with an "if", long answer "no" with a "but".

Jorge,

Trump v. Clinton scares the crap out of me. If my wife and I move to Buenos Aires, would you show us around during the first week or so?

I just did that, with his stutter and it works beautifully.

I've not been paying attention the past couple of days, being sick makes me lose patience with TV, news, etc and so I don't usually follow. Tomorrow is Super Tuesday, right? Is it pretty clear that we will have both nominees after tomorrow?

Dems, yes. There's not really a scenario where Bernie comes back. She'll likely win at least 80 to 100 more delegates than Bernie on Super Tuesday. Then they'll essentially be splitting delegates from here on out (probably more like 60/40 to Clinton). His only real hope is that Hillary can only amass a 200ish delegate lead by the end and he can convince a majority of superdelegates to join him, but that's not gonna happen. She's got those superdelegates so deep in her pockets.
GOP, maybe. If Rubio and Cruz can at least survive Super Tuesday without a huge gap, then there could be a window. If Trump wins big, it's over.

If Trump can somehow win Texas, it's REALLY over.

Trump vs Hilary makes me very sad. If that's what it is I hope trump wins. America deserves him.

I don't find a center-right career politician to be particularly inspiring.

To be honest I've completely had it with the Democrats. They act as though they are owed the vote of liberals, no matter how far right they drift.

Yeah, no matter if it is Clinton or Trump, America deserves the sh*tstorm that will follow. Time to bump the preppers thread.

Even if the Democrats are still too far right for some of you lefties, they have moved notably more left than they were in the 1990s.

Also, the idea that Hillary isn't well liked among world leaders is total fallacy.

Strat · Post by **Strat** » Mon February 29, 2016 5:01 pm

Hillary will be just fine, world. Just fine.

lol @ trump for blaming his shitty ear piece for being unable to disavow Duke.

I wish Ced (Patrick Bateman) still posted here, I would want to know if there are any parallels between the rise of Trump and Jean-Marie Le Pen getting into the final round in 2002.

On Point did an episode today called "Will Trump Upend the GOP?" It was really good. They'll repeat it later today, and then it should be available for download tomorrow:
