7. True, because on June 16 every woman in the U.S. will suddenly be ecstatic about Clinton's candidacy

Or maybe, one June 16, thoughtful articles reporting facts that might be a problem for Clinton's candidacy will be banned from DU. The problems will still be out there, it's just that DUers will be prohibited from mentioning them here.

My own guess is that neither of these things will happen. Problems will not go away and the admins will not require that every mention of Hillary Clinton on DU be accompanied by shrieks of joy. If a poll shows that she's trailing Trump in Wyoming, I suppose some of the most extreme Clinton zealots will alert it, and they may even get a few hides by manipulating the jury system, but I don't think that the suppression of such posts will be DU policy.

If I'm wrong, well, I'll find other things to do with my life, thanks for your concern.
