Who wins Hillary or Trump ?

drac,

these models are favourites amon 1st year undergrads in the US.

When I was a student, I remember creating a model where Hitler was left wing and Lenin was right-wing; then one where the Queen was an extreme authoritarian and Genghis Khan a moderate libertarianan. lol

Baically use common sense. Any model which claims Hitler to be more moderate than Thatcher is a model which has lost the plot.

More worrying is Trump’s economic programme, which will go ahead. If it works, brilliant, but if it doesn’t cut the mustard – and I don’t think it will – then the angry voters who supported him will feel betrayed and much, much angrier. Now that is terrifying.

I’m sure that’s the case – when it comes to specific policies.

But he’s not a blank card.

On the econony he says he will cut tax rates for the rich, and is committed to major public spending on nfrastructure. The Republicans who control Congress are also very happy about the tax cuts.

The degree to which he does this will be come clear, but that shouldn’t stop speculation unless it’s off the wall.

He has to do something  to ‘fix’ things – his electorate will turn on him otherwise.
