Yeah that's what everyone said when Trump nominated. The Trump years should have ingrained in us by now - don't make political predictions in times like these. We live in an incredibly uncertain and volatile time period. Plus the polling companies and experts who try and tell us what nations are thinking have been so wrong in recent years its absurd to take any of them seriously.

@chiangkaishrek5123 I'd say you're dead right on all 3 points. I don't think you've disagreed with what I said but described it from a different angle. Have you read or seen any of the book talks on "Angrynomics." Mark Blyth uses an analogy (even before writing Angrynomics) how the economy is like a computer. He describes populists as hackers or rogue programmers. In the book he and Eric Lonergan explain WHY people flock to populists and its NOT a new thing. The main reason people follow after them is they become disenchanted and/or disenfranchised with the current regime. In democracies (like we see all over the world right now) there's almost no difference in voting Left or Right because they do the same things. Populists offer an alternative. Eric & Mark point out that most populists are at their core opportunists and quite often narcissists. Plenty have pointed out that although Kinzinger has publicly spoken out against Trump he also voted with Trump most of the time. So in a way he's also an opportunist as is Liz Chaney and in fact almost everyone in politics these days. Its matter of how much. Hilary was just another arrogant narcissistic machine politician except she was too stupid to realise how much people despised her. I'm actually Australian but went to college at Illinois. I'm not an expert of the Midwest but have a decent handle on it. When I heard Hilary was NOT going to campaign in Michigan and instead did a fundraiser in New York I knew it was a truly idiotic mistake. Basically she double insulted the entire Rust Belt by not going and then hanging out with the very people who had sold their jobs to other places. She ended up losing Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. Anyone with a functioning brain should realise that's 54 EC-votes which represents a 108 EC-vote swing - you lose 54 they gain 54 (duh). Hilary and her campaign staff were among stupidest people in democratic history and I don't mean the US Democratic Party I mean ALL OF democratic history across every democratic state & nation.
