    I learned my lesson twice back in 2016…

    The day before Brexit I predicted that it would be a nothing burger.

    Then in november, I predicted that Hillary would win, because Trump was obviously shit.

    I have stopped predicting elections now…

      I remember watching Brexit happen from the US, and thinking “Ha, we’d never do something that stupid.”

      Then 2016 happened.

        There was a great joke going around near brexit, that the US and UK were in a competition to ruin their countries. The UK really pulled ahead with brexit, but the us had a trump card.

      Clinton lost because Jamey Comey (Director FBI) publicly reopened her email investigation 3-weeks before election day. It was a huge deal that everyone seems to have forgotten. The polls were right up until then.
