Within the wake of Donald Trump’s historic and decisive victory, the left has descended right into a full-scale blame recreation, with their supposed mental elites turning on one another in a circus of finger-pointing and melodrama.
The newest installment on this spectacle of failure comes from historian and so-called election “knowledgeable” Allan Lichtman, recognized for his “Keys to the White Home” prediction mannequin, who couldn’t resist blaming “misogyny, racism, and xenophobia” for his catastrophic prediction concerning the election.
As a result of, naturally, when liberals lose, it’s by no means about their insurance policies or candidates—it’s at all times the voters’ fault.

“The Keys to the White Home rely upon a rational, pragmatic voters deciding it based mostly on steerage fairly than relying upon if the get together ought to get 4 extra years.
And we’ve seen the explosion of some tendencies which have existed earlier than, however to not this extent. Disinformation. You realize, Elon Musk, I don’t know what number of a whole lot of billions he has, has been the director of misinformation. Two billion views of his spreading of disinformation.
Not simply concerning the economic system, however about immigrants, about minorities. We have been by no means seeing this disinformation at this scale.
Subsequent, we now have by no means seen to this scale the agitation of three tendencies which were very deeply embedded in American historical past. Misogyny, racism, and xenophobia. The primary anti-immigrant legislation was 1798, and Donald Trump wished to revive it.”
However issues took an much more absurd flip throughout a panel interview with Piers Morgan, the place Lichtman discovered himself face-to-face with Democrat propagandist Cenk Uygur of The Younger Turks.
What adopted was a fiery and laughable change that uncovered each males as delusional egotists with fragile egos.
Uygur, who has his personal lengthy historical past of incorrect political takes, didn’t maintain again in trashing Lichtman’s predictions.
Lichtman, in flip, received offended when his intelligence was questioned and doubled down on his self-proclaimed experience, boasting about his 51 years as a professor and 13 printed books.
