Opinion 2025 Predictions: What Will Happen?

[Scerpi]

I don't know if I'd use that word, but Rob is definitely well below average, and I think probably has a specific learning disability (probably has been diagnosed, also).

On the thread, as the person with the best prediction record here by far (check the record), I'd say that any specific, surprising prediction ITT will be wrong.

@Rob Battisti Congrates on being well below average

In 2025, we will witness @jackV Savage’s continued mental health as he copes with the fact that inflation was indeed not transitory

 

[Scerpi]

As the guy who continues to trounce you in head to head predictions— I think you are, in fact, a retard.

How far below average tho?

The huge increase in rate was certainly transitory. Are you claiming you disagree?

Also, lol @ congrates and well below average.

Trumps approval rating tanks already in the first year. Major buyers remorse incoming

Can it dipshit… Though I enjoy having a creepy stalker, it’s a little flattering

Yellen says she regrets saying inflation was ‘transitory’

Way to miss the context of Jack’s attempts of defending Biden during 2021, claiming inflation would stall out instead of hitting 50 year highs… lol

Jack

4% - Inflation is transitory
6% - Inflation is transitory
8% - Inflation is transitory
10% - Inflation is Transitory!!!

Until he finally shut up about it

It's telling you immediately resort to ad hominem and dodge with a strawman.

What's the rate now? What's the definition of transitory?

I’ve been calling for a recession every year for 10 years. I’m bound to be right eventually.

Weird that you would jump in to defend Trump prior to any recession even happening. Played your cards a bit early for the "centrist" bit.

 

[Lead]

There are a number of strong indicators that a recession is coming irrespective of who is in office. A big lol though that you’re already blaming it on Trump.

We'll fall into a recession (or at least a big correction in the markets)
The war in Ukraine will come to an end
Grocery prices will remain high
Chicago sports teams will continue to disappoint me

This does come off a bit weird and like expectation setting/ hedging. It takes awhile for a presidents impact to do anything to the economy but we could see two major bills in H1 and more importantly the tariffs if imposed would have a faster consequence.

Is this a mild recession or something severe? What is going to cause it?

Prolonged tightening will finally be felt.

I think we're due for one. We had like a decade of artificially low interest rates followed by covid + unprecedented spending and yet the market kept chugging along. I guess we'll see what happens.

Obesity is declared an epidemic and finally, properly taken care of. The strain on the food supply and medical sectors is eased and people everywhere enjoy cheaper groceries and health care. And seeing Trump, Vance, Musk, and all the other lard-asses suffering will provide constant entertainment.

- The drones can't find the Nuke in time and it explodes in a major US city. On either Christmas Day or New Years Eve.

- Trump passes the Enabling Act, allowing him to make and pass any law he damn well feels like. Congress and the Senate are disbanded.

- Police are given vastly expanded powers, up to and including Summary Execution for certain offences.

- The Second War on Terror begins: Iran is nuked, Saudi Arabia is invaded. The IDF destroys the Al-Aqsa Mosque. During the invasion of Saudi Arabia, Mecca itself is destroyed. Even secular Muslims completely lose their shit and terror attacks become an almost daily event across the entire Western world.

- ISIS explode a Dirty Bomb. Next to the Vatican. After the surviving Cardinals elect a new Pope, he declares the Ninth Crusade. The Italian armed forces are converted en masse into Papal Military Orders, and shock the world by being the first Italians to actually win battles since the Roman Empire.

- After intense pressure from Trump, Putin and Zelenskyy meet for peace talks. Zelenskyy and Putin shake hands for the cameras. Putin falls two hundred feet to his death a short time later. From a ground floor window.

- China attacks Taiwan. However, the PLA lose control of their new biological weapon. Millions of Chinese are turned into flesh-eating Zombies and the invasion of Taiwan has to be called off as China descends into chaos.

- Trump declares Scotland and Canada to be the 51st and 52nd States. Sir Keir Starmer vows to fight American imperialism, then quickly backs down when senior military officers inform him that the UK's Armed Forces amount to about five hundred combat-ready soldiers, three warships and half a dozen fighter jets. And a dog with a bad temper.

- Aliens attempt to invade earth. By this point, the world is so fucked it takes a few days before anyone notices. And the Aliens get a nasty surprise when Elon Musk unleashes hordes of cybernetically enhanced, genetically engineered Space Marines. Led by the Primarch: a 9-foot tall, 400lbs ripped Barron Trump.

Right, that should take us to about July next year...

@filthybliss you see what they do to my thread? I can’t escape these guys.

Who are "these guys" here? I hope you don't include me in there, after all you're the one who tagged me ITT.

Because @Jack V Savage is a vindictive asshole.

Or maybe he has his own issues with Rob? In my experience Rob is not very honest so that's my main issue with him. He also has atrocious ideas but I could forgive that to some extent if at least he wasn't dishonest about it.

Not you.

Maybe now I should have! Nope nope. We’re going to be buds. 2025, two retards being best friends!

-Musk leaves after Trump throws him under the bus

Hahaha. This one seems to make some sense to me.

 

[Rob Battisti]

-Jimmy Carter dies

Missed it by THAT much

Trump will throw US foreign politics into the trash.

Winner

Announced that Biden has Alzheimer's

Almost there

Only halfway through. Once Iran is crippled and can no longer supply Russia with missiles and drones, and they cannot send oil to Russia and the CCP, and they cannot find terror proxy groups.

Let it cook a bit
