Historian who accurately predicts elections urges Democrats not to dump Biden: ‘Could not be more misguided’

A presidential historian who has accurately predicted the result of nine of the last 10 elections implored Democratic Party leaders once again Monday not to dump President Biden after his catastrophic debate performance — and chastised members of the media for harping on his diminished cognitive acuity.

“They could not be more misguided,” American University history professor Allan Lichtman said on “CNN News Central” after having made the same assessment Friday night on the cable network.

“Remember, all the pundits, you know, watched Hillary Clinton win three debates in 2016,” Lichtman added. “They all said Trump was finished after ‘Access Hollywood.’ And they are so often wrong.”

That’s because the ballots have already been pre-printed and bundled.

This is not like an ordinary debate. This is a clear and obvious case of the whole country witnessing a man no longer fit to command anything.

The Trump analogy is absurd.

The primary reason Biden should continue to the nomination is to avoid a Primaries backlash. By telling the delegates to FO won’t help the Rats.

A presidential historian who has accurately predicted the result of nine of the last 10 elections, according to that same presidential historian...

9 out of 10. That means he’s due to be wrong wouldn’t you say?

The election is not about “winning” or “losing” debates. It is about class and style, and Trump has both in spades over either Herself of Crooked Joe.

If Democrat (Socialists) did not have low style and low class, they would have no style or class at all,

They are also pretty low-information as well. Trump can reveal both plausible and verifiable information for literally hours on end without notes or even repeating himself very much. And those points he does repeat, he does for emphasis, not because he is fumbling, or is confused on any aspect, but because of the glaring contrast with what the Democrat (Socialists) claim.

Democrats might as well be nominating Carter as their candidate, who at this point has a brain functioning better than Biden.

Heck, even dead Reagan has b much better functioning brain than Biden.

And, anyone who believes Biden won the debate Thursday, is just as brain dead as Biden. Anyone wanting for Biden to stay in the race, knows that Biden wont be president, even if he somehow ‘wins’ the election. It’s all about knowing that Biden is not running the administration now, and won’t be in the future.

TDS. They hate Trump that much so they're saying that.

If it's the other way around, they'll demand Trump resign the presidency immediately because he's senile!

“Remember, all the pundits, you know, watched Hillary Clinton win three debates in 2016,”

He lives at the heart of the DC bubble and hive-mind

He must have seen different debates.

The one reason Biden s still in the race... Jill is negotiating with the DNC to keep 10s of millions of campaign money for Joe and their family in retirement. Probably negotiating for some immunity for Joe also.

It wasn’t about the debate. Only fans care who wins or loses a political debate. It was the fact that Biden presented himself to the country as a weak, confused old man, a dotard, if you will, unqualified to be in charge of anything. People who watched cannot unsee that and I doubt they’ll forget it. And every time Biden has another series of ‘glitches’ they won’t be able to be passed off as ‘cheap fakes’.

Die-hard dems will vote for him in any case knowing and being ok with the idea that unseen and unelected people are really running the country. I can only hope that they are a minority.
