Polls and speeches? Can’t trust ’em. When you need answers about America’s next president, it is best left to the professionals: fortune tellers.

While covering the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, KIRO Radio’s Dori Monson stopped by Cora’s Palm Readings to speak with June, a self-described card reader, palm reader, and predictor of the future.

When Dori asked who will win this November – Hillary or Trump – June didn’t even bother flipping any of the cards.

“Trump,” she said. “It’s just the energy that I feel from him. He knows how to make money, he knows how to make decisions and Hillary caused a lot of problems back with Afghanistan and everything, with all the army people, and a lot of people are against and not voting for her. I’ve always felt it was him. My mom (Cora) actually grew up with him.”

Dori: This prediction seemed awfully quick, is this your professional or personal opinion.

June: A little bit of both. Could be more that I like him and could be more that I’m seeing that – I see the future with him.”

Dori: What do you see for the future?

June: Very confusing. I see a lot of problems happen, a lot of negative energy within 2017.

Dori: Have you read the tarot cards for Hillary and Trump? Do you need to do that at some point?

June: No. I have to have them in front of me.”

Dori: What kind of energy do you see around Hillary?

June: It’s not that she’s bad, it’s just that her decisions are not so good that’s she’s making. And a lot of people have energy toward her that’s not good.

Dori: What’s your track record of success?

June: We’ve been here for 35 years almost. This is our family business. My mom, my grandmother, everybody, we’ve all been here.

Dori: Are you ever wrong?

June: I’m not really wrong, that’s what my husband tells me: I’m never wrong.
