  1. Wow no need to vote now that the pundits have made their predictions! The keya to the whitehouse have spoken lmao

    1. It’s a prediction from a guy who has studied this stuff for decades. Trumptards can still give money to this orange loser and vote, but it’s gonna be a landslide defeat for those idiots. He won last time by the skin of his teeth. Something like 100,000 votes in 3 states. Not gonna happen this time around.

    1. America is on a whole different level bro. This is looking worst than the Great Depression. Wonder what this one will get called? The Great Tremendous Trump Collapse.

    2. Well okay Brazil Russia and India aren’t looking particularly in control of their bowels either to be fair.

    1. Trump is a national disaster for America. Four more years of Trump and America will end up like many of his casinos.

  2. What’s the difference between this “expert” and the regular anti Trump TDS sufferers I wonder! What he says is opinions with no backup as is usually the case of these lefties.

    1. The difference is the lefties predicted Trump would lose in 2016, and this guy predicted Trump would win in 2016. Thats a huge difference.

    1. Realistically, trump should win. But if it comes down to can give more stimulus republicans vs democrats. Democrats win 100% of the time

  3. To state that the ONLY reason trump will loose the election is the poor handling of the pandemic sounds off loudly how far the USA has fallen and has become a cesspool of hate and dysfunction.

  4. so how do we know youve called every single election?
    Every time i hear him say “my system” I think hes gonna follow that with “and you too can have my system for just 3 easy payments of $49.95 but you have to act now!”

    1. @Jay Gray sure … sorry for the confusion in my punctuation. This dude a close friend of yours or are you just a nit picker?? See the question marks there? The dude is all over the map and he’s been bought! So take that how you may.

    1. @selly gom hahahah. Typical commie. Nobody is more pro mexican than Trump. He is against cartels and NAFTA who are pro Chinese. Moreover leaders should care about his own country first.

    2. @selly gom how? When he has taken action against cartels. In fact by building wall, he reduced cartels cross international trafficking of especially MEXICAN women who are sex slaves. Moreover he dismissed NAFTA which is actually pro Chinese.

    3. @selly gom hahaha. Cartels biggest livelihood exists in America. Many criminals who are part of cartel runs to USA to take refuge. Women are trafficked and raped in industrial scale. Wall reduced trafficking and even helps in catching criminals. Mexican still can enter USA legally as there is nothing to restrict them especially. Both Mexico and USA are fed of these criminals.

    4. @selly gom hahahah. First of all don’t divert from main debate. Don’t you know that even countries like India have banned tik tok last month? When India and allies can, why can’t USA? Virus is caused by that very same country which is tik tok owner.

  5. @ 1:08 – 1:11 I’m almost positive he was about to say “rigged” before catching himself. I’ll bet this guy knows some unknown knowns.

  6. We make a guy a presidential historian out of being right all the time with 50/50 chance of being right, wish I had those odds for all things I’ve had to decide on.

    1. Dumbest comment I’ve seen in a while. There’s a 0.19% chance you correctly predict all 9 races he’s predicted. (0.5^9)

  7. Tomorrow are you going to have a guy that has a “fool proof system to win at roulette”? 🤣😁😂

  8. I was concerned about what this person had to say, but after watching him a bit I think its like how a broken clock is right twice a day.

  9. Biden will win because the elections are already rigged with mail in voting … biggest farce in history !
