1: supported by evidence strong enough to establish presumption but not proof <a probable hypothesis>
That is the online definition at Merriam-Webster of 'probable.'
Some claim that stopping Trump is "unlikely." If you follow the definitions through to probable, you get the above. Thus a statement that something is "unlikely" is itself based on a presumption!
Does this not mean in a certain way that media people are being presumptuous.
I believe this is at least something to think about.
