Allan Lichtman is a presidential historian and pollster who created an election forecasting model called the “13 keys to the White House,” but he’s also a Democrat and this epic meltdown he had perfectly sums out the current state of the Democratic party.
Lichtman likes to think of himself of some kind of holier-than-thou figure when it comes to predicting U.S. presidential elections and this time around he said his model pointed to a victory for Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris victory.
Since then, Lichtman has been having quite the melt-down, struggling to explain how he got the election so wrong.
During a segment on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” Lichtman had one of his most comical meltdowns yet!
Lichtman has been trying to claim that his model failed because it’s based on a “rational electorate” suggesting that the nearly 77 million Americans who voted for President-elect Donald Trump are “irrational.”
Cenk Uygur, the far-left host of “The Young Turks” called Lichtman out on this and the “genius” pollster couldn’t believe someone would have the nerve to question him.
“Don’t blame the voters,” Uygur told Lichtman. “I think, look, we can get into this discussion, but one, I think you’re blaming the voters. I think that’s a terrible idea.”
But Uygur didn’t stop there. He went on to explain why Lichtman got the forecast so wrong on Trump and the Professor did not like that one bit.
“And look, I debated Professor Lichtman before,” he continued. “I told him his theories about the keys were absurd. I was right. He was wrong. I said he’d lose his keys, couldn’t find them before the election.”
Lichtman instantly lost his mind, “No, you were not right and I was not wrong! And that’s a cheap shot, and I won’t stand for it!”
Next, Lichtman was asked who won the election and he lost his mind even more so, “You should not be taking cheap shots at me! You want to make your point, make your point, don’t make it personal.”
Uygur then responded by telling Lichtman that he was living in a world of denial while signaling that he was crazy.
Lichtman continued to complain that Uygur was making personal attacks against him.
“I’ve only been a professional for 51 years, published 15 books,” Lichtman said. “How many books have you published?”
“Brother, you got it wrong!” Uygur fired back. “You were preposterously and stupidly wrong.”
“Don’t call me stupid!” Lichtman snapped once more asking Uygur, “Who taught you manners?”
Lichtman then suggested that Uygur was committing “blasphemy against him” for questioning him and his election forecasting model.
YES, he really said that.
At one point, Morgan chimed in to say sarcastically, “It’s great to see you Democrats all getting along so well.”
Lichtman’s meltdown is hilarious but this exchange sums up how the entire Democratic party is acting right now. They’ve been consumed by infighting and finger pointing as many of them are still in disbelief that President Trump won the election by an ungodly sum and they REFUSE to accept any personal responsibility.
These people are children and by NO MEANS are they fit to run a country.
Watch the hilarious exchange between the two Democrats below.
"You're SO deluded."
Cenk Uygur clashes with pollster Allan Lichtman over the downfall of the Democrats.
