Last year wasn’t my best for predictions. I understood when the primary contest was over before many others who harbored unrealistic hopes, but that’s not really a prediction. It’s just knowing something. Of course, with no help from the polls, I didn’t see Trump winning.
One thing I predicted though was that Paul Ryan would not last long, especially working with a Trump presidency. I think I was right, but we’ll have to see how he comes out of the next week.
If he survives it, he may be weakened enough that the next gale will take him out. For example, the debt ceiling debate at the end of the summer…
