I'm calling it for Trump, by a slight landslide. The Deplorables™* are mad as hell, and they're not gonna take it any more. The FBI's incredible speed-reading feat will have been the last straw for many of them.
Meanwhile, a sizable number of young people who might otherwise automatically have voted Democrat -- and who, I'm told, use this "Internet" thing -- will have been angered by the Bernie Sanders debacle/betrayal/scam, and increasingly disturbed by the WikiLeaks revelations: not to mention their own debts, their own career prospects, and the distinct possibility of war with Russia under a Hillary-neocons regime. They may well abstain, vote Green, or even press the button for Trump on impulse once they're alone in that booth.
To get Hillary installed, there'll have to be some really blatant rigging of the machines and/or a "terrorist" attack on the Homeland between now and January. Both of which are very risky strategies, because the Deplorables are no longer willing to believe anything they are told by anyone in DC or in the "liberal" media. (Even if there is in fact no rigging at all, which is barely imaginable, they still won't believe it. Why should they?) Or maybe a pretext for war with Russia will be found sometime in the next few weeks.
High times ahead.
