Allan Lichtman is the historian who listed [the 13 keys to the White House](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Keys_to_the_White_House), a model discussed [in this thread created yesterday](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-much-credence-do-you-put-in-allan-lichtman-and-his-keys-to-the-white-house/1004434). Here’s what he tweeted within the past hour:

> I have never seen a party so intent on self-destruction as the Democratic Party is right now, trashing their own president and presumptive nominee who was selected by the voters.
