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.

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.

Soo, by that logic it's either going to be 3rd party or we got WW3 going on US soil that Brandon gets to enjoy a 3rd term at the office.

The YouTube channel Epic Rap Battles. Every US election cycle they make a rap battle with the two candidates

I don't know how that would make sense in this context. But it's also a shit post, so...Edit: ahh Epic Rap Battle. So yeah you're probably right!
