Oh, look another claim without any support. Feel free to break down why you think 538's methodology is flawed.

Is Nate Silver right? Most polling models show Hillary Clinton winning easily. Why is 538 more cautious? By STEVEN SHEPARD 11/04/16 11:55 AM EDT "The latest RealClearPolitics projections have the race teetering on a knife?s edge. But other, more complex forecast models ? based on the same polls ? give Clinton a 98 percent or 99 percent chance of defeating Trump next Tuesday. "As of noon Friday, the models and polling averages ranged from RealClearPolitics? close-to-tied electoral map ? if Florida were to flip back to Trump, he would be ahead in the Electoral College ? to HuffPost Pollster and the Princeton Election Consortium, which each show Clinton?s chances close to 100 percent, and Daily Kos Elections? model gives Clinton a 91 percent chance of winning. In the middle are models from two high-profile data-journalism sites, FiveThirtyEight and The New York Times? Upshot. But those two models aren?t in complete agreement, either. FiveThirtyEight?s ?polls-only? model pegs Clinton?s chances at 67.8 percent as of late Friday morning, while the Upshot model is more bullish at 84 percent." http://www.politico.com/story/2016/11 ... e-silver-538-right-230734 I believe that Nate Silver will be wrong. And when will this thing wrap up? https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/ar ... -334pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory

He already has a wall paid for by his donors so anything is possible.

If Trump wins (in his dreams), will he be also building a 'wall' along the Canadian Border or is it just the Mexicans he doesn't like and discriminate against?

Clinton is still in very good shape-
http://www.270towin.com/news/2016/11/ ... -of-november-3rd_407.html Unless the polling is way off I don't see how she can lose.

It's incorrect to say "he will lose." No one knows yet. Regarding 538, their prediction methodology is on display. Feel free to critique if you can. And you said he doesn't have a chance at winning. That's clearly false. Again, I think Trump is a disaster. But you're being foolish.

The race is getting tighter, more excitement I guess but fundamentals are the same. Trump will lose. http://election.princeton.edu/ Nate Silver - 538 has sold out to get page hits in my opinion. But on Tuesday night I'll be consuming some alcohol...

Go ahead and cherry pick factoids. Trump doesn't believe in climate change and also doesn't believe in scientific polling. No sense arguing about it, we'll know soon enough. To be continued on Wed...

I'm concerned that Trump supporters are deluded into believing that he has a real shot at winning. It isn't going to happen, unless something huge drops this weekend. Anything is possible in this election.

Possible. Depends on turnout. There are more D voters than R voters, but H has had issues with enthusiasm: Local campaign headquarters with almost no volunteers Her people complaining about the lack of enthusiasm (via Wikileaks). Using a green-screen to make it look like Hillary had a big crowd show up. Tim Kaine having less than 40 people show up at a rally then cancelling further rallies. Etc. Trump has been playing full houses and his people are pretty damn pumped. They are going to turn out to the polls. Will it be enough to throw MI or PA Trump's way? No idea. With cell phones, polling just doesn't have the accuracy it did years back. I.e. the polls had H winning big in the primary in Michigan... Sanders clobbered her. Will Sanders people go to the polls in sufficient numbers to put Hillary in office?

Not sure what the point of the question is about. I am voting against Hillary , both her public face and her private face. Nearly every policy position she espouses is wrong Her job is to keep Wall Street happy, If Bill , Hillary and Chelsea can just skim a little bit of the global trillion dollar scam while selling out America, no problem. After all they feel they are enlightened and entitled to it all. And a vote for them enables their narcissism and corruption.

Get a load of who Melania Trump is plagiarizing now!
Yes, she is plagiarizing her predecessor, The Donald's other ex, Marla Maples. And hilariously, it all comes from an interview conducted in May, 2011. http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/ ... Trump-is-plagiarizing-now

One doesn't equal another. Either there is evidence or there isn't. Rumors, which is all that book contains, exist. Rumors are not facts. I know that is a difficult concept for you, but I suggest you learn it. As for your quote... All that states is that Bill was paid very well for speaking. Big deal. How is that illegal or corrupt? Facts, sir. Provide them or go back to hiding under your white sheet...

It's a fact that Trump business ventures are taking a dive as Trump share prices drop and his businesses suffer - Take your money out now, before it's too late.
Trump has forgotten that he might get the 'poor' vote but it's the wealthy that pays his bills! http://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/17/trump- ... september-data-shows.html

You have a very clear agenda of bringing as many Muslim immigrants over here as possible (not talking about current American citizens), and if the parties had reversed immigration positions, you'd be the first one attacking Hillary. Luckily this issue is beyond our control, and I feel good about the polls. But keep deflecting from the proof I posted about Hillary's corruption.

You are intentionally derailing from the proof of Hillary's corruption I posted after I was asked. At least you admit your obvious motives behind your continued defense of this criminal candidate. I get the feeling you're a single issue guy, and if the parties' immigration positions were reversed, you'd be the loudest one here going after Hillary for her corruption.
