I have a pretty good track record on these things. So far I have not lost any bets on SI, including when I made the bet with the neocons on Iraq and how not only it will not be the shining example or even a US ally, but a great point of regret. We put in a time and metric to reassess and they lost but never paid off.

I am going to offer you the same chance. Come up with a concrete list of what you think the Trump presidency has delivered and/or will deliver over the next few years and we will assess it then.

I am personally of the opinion that the US is headed into an abyss. The best case scenario is a series of hapless governments over the next 10 - 20 years. But there is an even greater chance of political instability and riots worse than the '60s. Hopefully the country will re-emerge better than before. But the near and medium term outlook is not bright...and that is irrespective of who is the president or holds the senate.
