it sure seemed like a high probability. even before the primaries were over it seemed like thats where we were headed, maybe bernie would take it but probably not. for sure no way would a republican would win...trump??? pffft that would be a for sure victory for dems.

it seemed like many actions/half measures were taking with the assumption that the deal would be closed once hillary was in office.

in hindsight that was very stupid. to me it didnt seem too crazy at the time though.

scary times indeed.
