Bill Mitchell - A poll is a hypothesis. Rallies and social media presence are empirical evidence.  A hypothesis unsupported by empirical evidence is wrong.

Who is Bill? Any reason we should care about him?

Trump on Twitter:
QuoteThey will soon be calling me MR. BREXIT!

I got nothing.  :wacko:

Apparently he really said that on twitter. What thought process leads him to believe he is going to be called that? Is there any basis for it?

He is going to overcome all of the odds, defy the "experts" and "polls" and pull off a surprise victory just like "Leave" did.

Who is Bill? Any reason we should care about him?

US Army General who is regarded as the Father of the US Air Force.

He got court-martialed for insubordination 'cause he didn't know when to shut up. Apparently he also didn't know what a poll is and was confused about the difference between anecdotal evidence and empirical evidence.

It's the being dead since 1936 that does it. That would confuse anyone.

Anyway the reason for my question was that we know many people will say nonsensical things. Wasn't sure why his nonsensical thing was worthy of note. -_-

Wouldn't it be ironic if 6 months into a Trump presidency, Putin's Russia invades both Iceland and Poland, President Trump chooses to do nothing in response.

I think Russia would get fucked up pretty bad trying to invade or hold any Polish territory.

I'd frankly be fine with Russia invading Iceland, they more or less deserve to be dominated by an evil foreign power.

If I were the Russians, I'd 'persuade' their colonists in the Baltic states to move to Iceland instead and annex to Russia them in a 'referendum'. Much easier than hassiling the Baltics and better strategically as well.

Oh hey, when Chris Christie became governor the state of New Jersey forgave $25 million out of the $30 million Trump owed in unpaid taxes: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/us/politics/trump-chris-christie-casinos.html?ref=politics&_r=1
