This is a good prediction

A foretelling told to an idiot, full of fuck you and fuck you, signifying nothing.

Donald Trump's prediction of 2016?

“The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.” @realDonaldTrump, 6 November 2012

"We can’t let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!"
@realDonaldTrump, 7 November 2012

CBS News: "In several tweets he later deleted, Trump wondered how Obama won even though Republican nominee Mitt Romney had more votes (though in the end, Obama won the popular vote as well)." Note: Not "in the end" - Obama was clearly ahead in popular vote and electoral votes on election night.

“He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election,” Trump tweeted. “We should have a revolution in this country!”

The (largely ignored) wars that Obama initiated are going to be portrayed as evidence of "fascism" to the extent they continue under Trump.

Close! I just got it backwards; Donald Trump, with help from Democratic operatives, won the Republican nomination.

I predict a fairly sizeable terrorist attack in California, with signs of FBI involvement, before end September.

Prediction: Edward Snowden, after returning to the U.S., will run for president.

Seriously. I think he may have already started.

Damn, that's a good prediction. He has it all: the looks, the patriotism, the hipster cachet, the "responsible" "opposition to corruption", and two movies to back up his election campaign.

Before 2020 hits, Joe Biden will be confronted by a young female reporter looking for scalps. She will brace him on consent, personal space, and the fucked up shit he has said to women in public. He will lose his temper, show his real face, and go down in flames.

Furthermore, when this happens I will be banned from Twitter for harassing him.

Tooze lays out why, by 2012 when you predicted it, this had actually been happening for several years already through the Fed's provision of unlimited swap lines to central banks.

e.g., first two posts here

(I was mistaken abot the two rejects being unknown; they were Indonesia and Turkey.)

I'd have predicted any such bailout of the ECB would be arranged to not look like a bailout.

Yes, I just expected it to become overt and public, pundits explaining why this was Good Actually, given the rate the black hole was expanding. Never happened.

(The Saudi thing is just more of wish I make every 10 days or so, good to put those intentions out there.)
