The Trump Apocalypse Watch is a subjective daily estimate, using a scale of one to four horsemen, of how likely it is that Donald Trump will be elected president, thus triggering an apocalypse in which we all die.

The polls that are coming out now, with the first presidential debate hours away? They’re tied. FiveThirtyEight says that if the election were held today, there is only a 52.4 percent chance that Hillary Clinton would win.

Put another way, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SLKADFLKSADJFLKSLKSDJNFOJROIJ4#$WLKNW823#SD#@$@#$%$
