But as much as I respect you and Ty, I was never going to take your opinions over those of thousands of analysts who called the race a month before it was done. Not even the Comey thing made me think he had a chance.
You and Ty and Michael Moore saw the Blue Wall crumbling. That's impressive. But it's also a huge black swan. I love Taleb, but he'd be the first to tell you, it's almost impossible to call those things in advance.

I mentioned Ty, not because he predicted the closeness, that was me. i mention Ty because we had been at extremes of the spectrum since W's years, we never agreed, yet in 2016, we did.
