Yeah, I’m not seeing it either. I tried sussing out some sort of justification backed by evidence from him earlier, and I got nothin’.

Best I can tell is it’s the same “unicorns and rainbows, pie in the sky” prognostication on his part that gave us such gems as [Hillary would get 358 EV’s](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/presidential-results-prediction-thread/769319/14) and that [Biden would breeze across the finish line with 400 EV’s](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/predictions-for-the-2020-us-presidential-election/922525/5).

I suppose if he’s gonna keep firing up these half-court shots then so be it (I assume his end-game is that when one of them finally goes in, he can say “see, told ya”). For the sake of this country, I certainly hope this is his year.
