    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…

      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.
