538 was spot on. If you think otherwise you don't understand scientific polling.

Right before the election they had it 33% for The Donald and 66% for Clinton.

Hillary did win the popular vote by several %.

They warned that the polling was close and Trump had a legitimate chance - which he obviously did.

Let me put it this way. You load two rounds into a revolver and spin the cylinder. 538 says you have a 33% chance of blowing your head off.

You pull the trigger and blow your head off. Would you have said 538 wrong for only giving 33% chance of that happening?

You are confused. I think you need re-read the thread. Someone posted 538's opinion on Bernies chances and used that as evidence that Hillary was going to win anyway.

It's BS. As you correctly point out, even if 538 "did the math" and predicted Hillary as the likely winner, that doesn't mean she would have won. It's useless to bring up. Their abysmal failure at predicting the 2016 election is a perfect example.

And yes, they did fail. A prediction is a binary choice. Saying X has 66% chance of winning isn't a prediction, it's just a measure of how confident they were in their prediction. And despite that confidence, they were wrong.

I agree this is very fishy. The edit was done without an asterisk, meaning it could only have occurred from a reddit admin.

The only possible kosher explanation I can think of is maybe they edited out information at the request of proven family members.

But even that seems suspect, as the subject of an unsolved murder investigation isn't it illegal to tamper with potential evidence, even if a family member requests it?

Only farce is the BS you are spewing. The parents are in tears of joy about the fact that people on the internet are trying to solve the murder of their child:

https://twitter.com/RedPillDropper/status/866071104112209921

That would the the parents in this family?

"The family of slain Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich is threatening legal action against a man it says has peddled politicized conspiracy theories about the murder of the 27 year-old, who was shot as he was walking home in the District of Columbia late one night last July.

A lawyer for the Rich family sent a cease and desist letter Thursday to Rod Wheeler - a private investigator and Fox News contributor who had been working on behalf of the family."

Do you have any idea how stupid and gullible you are ?

The family started a gofundme for funds to help find his killers two months ago. That clip was harvested from a thank you they posted on their own youtube channel a month ago, before this latest Russian propaganda was fed to you low-information alt-right suckers.

The fact that someone would be willing to use this to push a conspiracy shows the sort of filth you fall prey to time and time again.

You need to read the article and filter through the BS.

The informnation is not coming from the family, it's from:

Brad Bauman, Rich family spokesman

So you are confirming it's 100% true. Thanks.

I don't really give a shit if it's 2 months old. Are you some kind of retard who thinks news isn't relevant once it's more than a week old?

It's thanking the people who donated money, a month ago, before you alt-right degenerates fell for yet another conspiracy. It is not thanking, via premonition, the witless fools who were going to fall for another alt-right conspiracy in the future as you tried to push it as.

Just imagine how many times this moron gets duped by fake news and conspiracies like he did here. He can't even own it when it's shown to him. No wonder Trump has support with people as dumb as this walking the Earth.

So what? If the family didn't agree I'm sure we'd hear about it. They obviously didn't agree with Wheeler & Fox exploiting their grief. They've petitioned a court for a restrainng order. Too bad that won't work on internet trolls like yourself.

So why are Reddit admins editing the posts of the victim of an ongoing murder investigation? What's the reason?

So, it was actually the spokesman who hired the lawyer who sent the letter and he is now pretending that the family hired the lawyer and sent the letter? And the earlier statement that the parents released to the press where they called this crap out as bullshit was actually written and released by the spokesman?

Is the family is being held in some kind of 'protective custody' so that they can't contradict the fake spokesman?

Who is behind this conspiracy and can the parents still be saved or do you think that they will be killed as well?

btw, when you squeeze your nose, does it honk?

you're not a famous or semi-famous person dealing with grief.

Their son died.

shitbrain virgin russian motherfuckers like you are out there, on the internet, Telling them that their son was murdered because of your hallucinogenic nationalist fantasy wet-dreams about evil liberals and blackies conspiring to steal your country through underground pedo rings with italian sauces and chinese mineral helms.

Fuck you, basically. This is why families hire spokespeople, to speak for them, because you exist. You are a plague on humanity. So, because of you and your anti-plastic nueral degenerative disease, actual human families have to speak through professionals.

You know, just like the motherfucking president.

Fuck.

You.

Lets post this again, since you seem to be too stupid to read a thread before responding:


Owned. I'm going to block you as well, since you have never added anything positive information to any thread I have ever read on this entire site.

And gotta love how you can spew out "fuck you" as many times as you want while I get a ban for quoting "in bruges". Whatever. Be as vulgar as you want. Don't use rational argument, you obviously lack the intellect for that, just keep spewing obscenities and I'm sure you will convince people you are correct even when you are absolutely wrong in every way.

Good bye loser.

It gave me a fairly accurate picture of the election. I completely understand why it was confusing to you. :D

What part of them seeking a restraining order against Wheeler & Fox do you fail to comprehend?

Newt Gingrich mentions Seth Rich murder this morning on Fox News, says it needs investigating.


Newt Gingrich exposed himself as a hypocritical fool back in 1994, and has never recovered. It looks like Fox news keeps the entertainment value at maximum absurdity, though.
