I'm legitimately scared.

Right now I'm scared for the economy, I'm scared for my job, I'm scared for my daughters future.

Because the system has been saying "screw you" to them?

I was more wondering why they always come to a nominee like this, not the fact that dissatisfaction leads to contrary voting.

He should have dropped out far earlier.

This isn't Bernie's fault. If anything, him staying in helped push her left and keep supporters that would have otherwise left.

How long before Clinton concedes? 538 down to 50%

538 was actually near 60% Trump at one point.

This is bad for religious freedom.

This is bad for the national budget.

This is bad for any form of international relations.

This is bad for minorities.

Pharma (antibiotics for the poor, and antidepressants for the middle class)
Defense (govt attempts go restart the economy or distract the population)
Banks (after the initial crash they pay themselves first during the recovery)
Luxuries (the rich are never hurt for long)

Ooooh, good point - banks are an excellent choice, if you don't mind a crash once a decade (to buy more, of course).

Terri Bonoff can't oust Erik Paulsen (MN 3rd). Tying Paulsen to Trump wasn't the winning strategy.

That's what I'm going to do. I just don't know where the bottom is. The potential damage of him killing off NAFTA, imposing tariffs, and starting a worldwide trade war is immense.
