OK - I think we need a thread that doesn't specifically focus on Trump, and we also need a thread with a few ground rules.
I'm not sure why but I always tend to get quite involved with the US elections (and US politics in general). This year's election is bound to be fascinating, and you can rely on the Yanks to have a system that provides plenty of twists and turns. It's showbusiness!
At this moment in time, it looks like a democratic win by default, basically because the republicans are going to end up backing Trump because the moderate republicans are killing each other, rather than picking a legit runner and backing them against Cruz/Trump. I think they're going to leave Trump too far ahead and he'll be found out against any of the leading democrats.
If you're a normal republican, you're pulling your hair/toupée out at where things are going. But that make the Iowa caucus next week even more interesting.
For the democrats, things aren't much better. The choice between Clinton and Sanders isn't great.
The ground rules:
Play the post, not the poster
No diverting the discussion
No personal bickering
The thread will always be improved by videos of Palin
If you're not interested in US politics, that's fine, just don't post here.
