The Worst Political Predictions of 2016
It was another rocky year for the political sages.

Of course he did anyway. But this is a new year and a different circumstance.
Biden is far more of a threat than Clinton ever was IMO....not just to win but also to be the equivalent of an NPC in the white house.
After reading an article by Jonah Goldberg today I did have a few moments of somber thought about 2020. Hell even Trump didn't think he would win in 16.....
Then I remembered that Jonah Goldberg has always been the perfect all-purpose journalistic chameleon for all occasions. When it comes to waiting for the results and then slyly sidling up to them the next day posing as an epochal sage who saw this coming all along nobody surpasses Goldberg in the Olympics of self-congratulatory repose.
Having said that I am content to know that America has just experienced the best four years of the past fifty as far as making a comeback on the world scene as a leader of Nations. This is more or less 100% due to the administration of Donald Trump regardless of who wants to admit it.
However Americans are a fickled lot and it seems that too much success turns them off. So be it. If the next POTUS is to be an adult undergarment wearing marionette.... It will be because we put him there. Sooner or later we all learn to live with our choices even as our choices must learn to live with us.
