Back in 2020, Old Moore's Almanac predicted that Trump would not serve a second term and low and behold the famous annual of predictions was correct. Let's check out what it has in store for 2022!

The Old Moore’s Almanac is the first and original, and Irish, with some editions over 200 years old still sitting in the Long Room Library in Trinity, next to the Bibles!

Old Moore’s Almanac is 258 years old and has been a stocking-filler
since its inception. It is most famous for its predictions of future
events – both Irish and global. These predictions have been getting
great domestic and international news coverage for their accuracy.

For example, a year before it happened, Old Moore predicted that Kanye would
have mental health problems, the Barrier Reef would be at risk of dying, and that drone pizza delivery would happen. It also predicted the rise
of Bitcoin over nine years ago. And of course, he predicted the pandemic, a
year before it happened.
