I have no idea. Holy crap. Wow.

I just hope he doesn’t crash the economy or start a war.

Sam Wang at the PEC said if Trump gets more than 240 EVs he would eat a bug. We will see.

My faith in polling predictions is gone. 538 got a lot of things wrong in the primary, so I lost faith in them. But I still believed PEC, but not now. It is like we are back in the dark ages pre 2008, where we can’t really predict election outcomes ahead of time.
