Professor who’s been right about every election since 1984 reveals his 2020 prediction

American University history professor Allan Lichtman developed a system that has accurately predicted every presidential election since 1984 (with one exception: he predicted Al Gore, who did win the popular vote but lost to George W. Bush. Licthman stands by that prediction). Licthman tells CNN's Michael Smerconish that his system predicts President Donald Trump will lose the White House this year. #CNN #News

    2. @methead lee Those ‘interesting times’; getting soo tired of ‘winning’, ie the total chaos in govt.

    3. @JETPAC MOZi No, I just don’t like waking up each day to ‘Breaking News’ , when Trumpf has had another brainfart on Twitter. When you know MOST of the guys in Govt, it’s usually becoz they screwed up big time again. I don’t want to know these guys’ names; I want a govt to work.

    4. 33lex55 Love his tweets ! First time you actually know what your president is thinking! Also all of them tweet (; his is just more popular because he is obviously bold .

    1. Instantly thought what a grifter, like those merchants who sell MAGA hats instead of giving them away.
      But lets face it, as long as capitalism exists money matters, so i dont blame this guy or others who have side hustles, or cash in on their thoughts. Lets face it this guy is a capitalist Nazi, he concentrated these words in his book for his gain.šŸ˜

    2. @Daniel Dickson Professors write books. It’s kind of one of the things they do…especially history professors.

    4. @J C There absolutely nothing wrong with writing a book. But the way he blatantly plugged it was kinda cringy. If he has a new book, you would expect the host to mention it before or after the interview.

    5. @J C Also, he could have said, “If you read my book…” or “In my book…”. But instead, he said, “If you BUY my book”. I guess that’s the part that bothered my. Just my opinion.

  1. If there’s a day I should risk my life in this pandemic, it’s Election Day.

    VOTE AND REGISTER NOW!!!!

    1. @greyeyed123 “like omg who cares that some anarchists took over six blocks in a major city! Lol, like it was TOTALLY only six blocks! Chill out yall!”….thats what you sound like. Letting anarchists take over blocks for a month where people were KILLED….is not ok. You have no idea what leadership is, you are clearly an air head teenage social justice warrior with no clue of the real world outside social media.

    2. Yoji Shinkawa good point! Itā€™s too bad the comment section on this post turned into a political argument. If you donā€™t know me and choose to insult me on YouTube, Iā€™ll turn that comment into a graphic T-shirt and sell it! šŸ˜

    3. ā€‹@Okima Wilcox It had nothing to do with slavery. It was designed to be a way for state governments to select the President. For the first few presidential elections, state legislatures actually picked the electors – it wasn’t until later that electors were selected by popular vote in states.

    1. Trump was echoing Fauci’s assessment that COVID-19 was NOTHING TO BE WORRIED ABOUT. But liberals wouldn’t know that because they are completely owned, having given up or never had freedom of thought or critical thinking abilities. Listen to him SAY it. But facts really don’t matter when you are a Democrat plantation zombie. PROVE ME WRONG OR DEFLECT.

    2. @SmileMan64 aka BenjaMan64 “Voting in person and worried about being harassed? Wear a red hat.”

      Are you serious? With all the cases of violence against people wearing MAGA hats? Nobody, and I mean there is no video of this anywhere, is getting hurt or harassed for voting democrat. It simply doesn’t happen. While there are umpteen videos of Trump supporters (including a bunch of escaped North Koreans) getting beaten, chased, egged, and attacked.

      I’m a formal liberal and liberals are the bullies this time.

    3. Baddaddy She should do her research regarding Joes racist statements and horrible policies that hurt the black community immensely. Obama had plenty of scandals as well, but some people choose to live in a false reality full of ā€œTrump and Putinā€ and ā€œOrange man badā€ fallacies they continue to pedal. Iā€™m not sure how some canā€™t see how all their claims about Trump actually exist in Biden, so those that declare Biden as ā€œa good candidateā€ while saying Trump is ā€œmentally derangedā€ clearly have some cognitive issues themselves or are such indoctrinated Democrats that they subconsciously view the world from a skewed reality. Theyā€™re the kind of people who donā€™t ā€œthink,ā€ they just ā€œknowā€ if you catch my drift.

    2. Karen Schumer why would you vote for the party of slavery, jim crow, segregation, the KKK. Why would you vote for a man who can barely string together a sentence? Why would you say black lives matter every four years and then vote to defund the police. Look at democrat run cities, is that what yoou want?

    2. Well now I can rest easy, I know what a drug-addled musician who died of a drug overdose thinks about things. Don’t know how I made it this far without that golden nugget.

      I’ll just bet anything that he would have supported both Obama and Biden.

    3. whickervision no , I just donā€™t believe the news reports him fairly and I think heā€™s a loud mouth and talks about himself too much but heā€™s done good with the economy till Covid and he stands up to China ! Trump understands the value of blue collar jobs and democrats want to get rid of them and by that I mean send them to a China so yes I am voting for Trump and who ever else runs in 24 and 28 and 32 and so on and so on because the Democratic Party hates America and is hell bend on changing it in to a socialist country so they can gain power for themselves they donā€™t want people have jobs and money because if we did we would need down and they need us more than we need them so if they make us all poor and theyā€™re the only ones with resources and work beholden to them or enslaved of them thus giving them all the power to rule over us jobs jobs jobs thatā€™s what keeps freedom jobs are good you got money you got a way to protect yourself and your always be free and what are the two things Democrats are attacking both jobs and guns there will be blood shed before we become a socialist country CNN needs to realize that Democrats need to realize that Big City liberals need to realize that. thereā€™s more more small town hillbillies then there are big city college educated liberal and America is great always was great and will always be great because we will always be free one way or another please wake up and quit voting for the liberals itā€™s there city that blacks get killed not ours . Blacks and whites get along great in Texas my boss is black and heā€™s a great man people are coming to Texas because the liberals failed them and they we always fail the people because they steal for the people they started the Kkk they started Jim Crow , LBJ is on record say if those N word want to vote I will have them Voting Democrat for 200 years wake up people the Democratic Party is pure evil

    1. howard ashford calm down! I didnā€™t vote for either in 2016 and Iā€™m definitely not voting for Biden. I donā€™t know how anyone can vote for someone who is obviously senile.

    2. No need to vote. Dems have Vote Harvesting: as soon real votes are counted and they know how many votes they need to win, āœØJust Like MagicāœØ votes for the Democrat are ā€œdiscoveredā€ and then get delivered by the truckload. Thatā€™s how they flipped six Red seats in California in 2018.

    3. you’re right, Eli. a simple majority for Biden won’t cut it. It will have to be a landslide victory for Biden, otherwise Fwump will tie things up in court for months. He’s already admitted it.

  2. America (USA), vote this time. As if your life depended on it. Because it does, if you havenā€™t noticed ahead.
    // The rest of the World šŸŒ

    1. @Amadeo Calderon jr If Trump is re-elected their will be nobody alive in 4 years so nothing to worry about after that…

    2. So this guy was wrong about 3 of his choices bush both times and Clinton lol, Iā€™m not gonna say he is stupid but just know Trump is gonna win again.

  3. ā€œIā€™m putting a caveat on my predictionā€. Whatā€™s this guy doing, running a 1-900 psychic line?

  4. He’s right everytime, except for the time he was wrong in 2000 and when he covered why he might be wrong if he was wrong in 2016
