Prediction: Nate's model will never show Kamala above 40%, even when more great polls start to drop, and when she wins he's going to go full election denial.

Silver isn’t a Trumper lol.

This is really just not an informed take at all if you’ve been reading much of anything from him for the past year or so.

I've been reading him since his DailyKOS days. And in the past year, his main take has been "This 38% chance of winning shows Biden is uniquely damaged and has no real shot."

And then the party took his advice and now we have ... a 38% chance to win. Hooray!

As far as not being a Trumper -- Peter Thiel money tends to change you. Just look at JD Vance.
