Donald Trump will win the GOP presidential nomination and pick Mike Huckabee as his running mate. The FBI will file criminal charges related to Hillary Clinton's use of a home-brew email server as secretary of state.

One Iowa Republican offered a quasi-apocalyptic prediction: "The Beltway chattering class gets back from the holidays and the first week of January they are in meltdown panic mode with one question: What in the world are we going to do with Trump? Until now he's been an illusion. He's been off their radar. Why? Name one presidential candidate who has spent less time in D.C. Has he been there at all?
And yet they went home and everywhere they went - their family, childhood friends, shopkeepers and restaurant servers - all of them brought up Trump. There were no other candidates discussed. And now, they come back to reality, talk to each other, and everyone heard the same thing at their respective hometowns, in all 50 states. The question is: What now? And nobody will have the answer."
"Cruz will fail to win Iowa, opening the door to Trump sweeping all four early states," predicted another Iowa Republican.

You cannot buy that kind of publicity.
Holy Moly...is that real? They did the same in California!
I am about to go sit in a golf course snack bar with my Crippled America book and read it while waiting for my husband to finish playing. Wonder if I’ll get a reaction.
I’m just wondering about the forecasts for 2015 made this time last year.
Did ANYONE correctly forecast Trump’s incredible rise?
Anywhere?
Sorry I know that is this last year, but I’m very curious.
(anyone?)
I am soooo excited with the possibilities about the future with Trump sitting in the white house.
They don’t realize Trump is running as a moderate with many conservative positions that moderates also support.
It’s a winning coalition that’s very difficult for Cruz or Rubio (or a Dem) to match.
They still think- they want to think- despite all the evidence- that Trump represents a fringe.
I Predict:
1. Trump will lose Iowa, but win the rest.
2. Hillary will be involved with new scandal.
3. An attempt will be made on Trump’s Life.
4. Brokered conventions for both Dems and GOP.
5. ISIS will use a nuke and blow upa city in the UK
6. Dems will pick Biden for President—warren as VP
7. GOP will pick Christie for Prez. with Carly as VP.
8. Conservatives will stay home
9. Biden wins big. Many do write in Trump.
10. ISIS will take Baghdad—using Poison Gas.
11. Sarkosy will be new President of France.
12. Ecomonic Depression hits USA in June.
13. Assad will be assassinated by Obama.
14. Army revolt in Ankara Turkey.
Politico is for Trump. All of the big news companies are for Trump.
I could see Huckabee as a happy warrior in the #2 position, not unlike how Biden has served under Obama. The VP position could be utilized better but clearly anyone who wins the Presidential nomination is a type A personality and it’s unlikely he/she would pick another type A as running mate. So that would exclude Rubio, Bush, Paul, and most others but Huckabee or Scott Walker could be safe Trump choices for VP.
I know, Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump will live on in FReeper fantasies til the day of the announcement.
As shown in the image posted above, most of the government employees are also in favor of Trump as Republican nominee (and Hillary as the Democrat nominee).
-Donald Trump will win the GOP presidential nomination and pick Mike Huckabee as his running mate.
Oh look that.
I notice a disticnt lack of Huskster posts in the thread.
LoL!
I think you’re accurate on 2,4,11,12.
The Huckabee prediction is sort of weird to me but, I can see the rational of trying to expand the base. I would put Fiorina above Huck but I don’t think it will be Huck
Jeff Sessions
Newt Gingrich
Greg Abbott
Those three would be my dark horse candidates
"The desperation of the media to chase ratings and give unprecedented free airtime to Trump, with little or no attempt to scrutinize his record, his statements, his flip-flopping, or his shady track record," one New Hampshire Republican said. "Collectively, the media should be embarrassed."
Nonsense. The media has been overwhelmingly critical in their coverage of Trump. He wouldn't be leading if people didn't like what they're hearing.
It makes sense from a save ss and madicare point of view. Which Trump stole from Huckabee. Plus Trump brags about leaning on the right people he hires and Huckabee would be good for that as Trump sees he is in over his head on day two.
I don't think Ronald Reagan.was known to be in Washington DC for political reasons.. Maybe to visit the Viet Nam Memorial or the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier; something no democrat has ever done.
Carnak, the answer is: "Barack Hussein Obama".
Can you tell us, what is the question?
Carnak The Magnificent Says: "I hold in my hand the envelope that contains the question to the answer given above. No one knows the contents of this envelope. But I, in my divine and mystical way, will ascertain the question despite never having seen the envelope contents." And the question is: "Name a powerful government official who will violate his oath of office and commit an unconstitutional act in 2016."
As a child of four can plainly see, this envelope is been hermetically sealed.
It has been kept in an empty #2 mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagnall's back porch since noon today.
President Donald J. Trump
Vice Pres Susana Martinez (Gov NM...and strong Conservative)
Huckabee is not a conservative
There’s a guy who’s gonna need a job!
