"Expert" Allan Lichtman Melts Down In Argument With Master Debater Cenk Uygur (???), Declares That Anyone Saying He's Wrong Is Commiting "A Blasphemy Against Me"

Allen Lichtman, like so many other pretenders in the media sphere, is a literal zero. He is a nobody, a nothing, a nil.

You only know who he is because every four years, the media trots him out as part of their efforts to fill up as many minutes as possible with nonsense.

You've seen him -- he's the guy with the "13 keys" for predicting, or just guessing, the outcome of presidential elections. (He's such an incredible scholar that you haven't heard of him in any other context.)

He claims something like his 13 keys have "predicted" the winner in all but one of the last nine presidential elections.

Some might say that sounds like it's not much of a better record than most people would achieve through simple guessing, especially given that most presidential contests are not close and can easily be predicted by people who do not possess the awesome power of The Keys.

But those people are Blasphemers, as we'll soon find out.

Before Biden dropped out, this Savant claimed his "keys" predicted a Biden win, so Democrats must stick with Biden. The keys guaranteed his re-election!

Mind you, this was at a time when we now know that Biden's internal polling showed him losing 400 electoral votes to Trump.

After Biden dropped out, he guaranteed that Kamala would win. His Keys proclaimed her victory!

But some other people looked at his stupid "keys" and found that, first of all, they were largely about highly subjective things like whether the short-term economy and the long-term economy were positive for the incumbent or not.

Despite that the fact that America is in the grips of high inflation (short term) and on the edge of a recession (long term), Lichtman gave these two "keys" to Kamala Harris.

Nate Silver said, "Wait a minute, that doesn't seem right to me."

Lichtmann blasted him as a know-nothing punk who just didn't know how to properly work the Magic Keys.

allenlichtmanvsnatesliver.png

During election night, this alleged political "scientist" just kept making up excuses for why his Keys weren't as magical as they usually are, and offering increasingly desperate statistically-unlikely scenarios whereby the Keys would be vindicated and Kamala would win.

Here's some more pathetic cope.

After the election and his complete humiliation, Lichtman announced that he was stepping back from the media and internet to ponder why his Keys had been so wrong.

"My prediction for this presidential election was wrong. I own up to it right now. I am taking time off today."

"My aim is to assess why the keys were wrong and what we can learn from this era and what the election means for the future of our country going forward."

That lasted about 48 hours. Within 48 hours, he'd figured out the problem:

The Keys were right. They'd always been right.

It was the voters who were wrong.

Now back from his intense 48 hour period of reflection and re-analysis, Lichtman has been spamming out excuses about why his incredible, magical, fantastical keys completely got the winner wrong. (Although Nate Silver would say that actually the keys pointed to a Trump win, but Lichtmann is such a hyperpartisan he wrongly assigned keys to get the outcome he wanted.)

His favorite excuse is... wait for it...

"Misinformation." You see, his Keys totally overlooked the possibility that the Democrat's opponent might get to speak during this election cycle, and say things that hyperpartisans like Lichtman don't think is true.

Which is what he means by "misinformation."

His keys work GREAT unless a Republican is allowed to be heard! If that happen, the Keys are of no use whatseover!

Well, it gets worse for Allan Lichtman.

Piers Morgan had him on to offer more excuses for his Fortune Cookies not correctly forecasting the future, but he was confronted by someone smarter, wiser, saner, and more emotionally intact than he is.

And I can't believe I'm saying this, but that Hero was Cenk Uygur.

Lichtman kept offering a 3M factory's worth of excuses -- misinformation, Musk, and misogyny -- for why his Keys failed, arguing that his Keys were as perfect as they ever were, and Uygur basically kept repeating one simple point that, while very basic, was very insightful: "But you were wrong."

Lichtman began yelling, which he always does when his precious Keys are questioned, and culminated in telling Uygur, who I think is a Muslim, that when he says that Lichtman is wrong and his Keys are dumb, that is committing "blasphemy against me."

Yes, this "scientist" said that.

It's a real hoot.


Did you catch the part where he lists his Credentials?

Did you catch the part where he invokes the Scientific Evidence of Cenk's own Twitter followers supporting Lichtman and saying that Cenk is wrong?

Dude, your own Twitter followers say I'm right. Q. Fuckin' E.D., bitch!

I don't know what prior "debate" Cenk is referring to, but I would guess that Cenk objected to Lichtman's claim that the Democrats must stick with Biden, because of the Magic Keys.

And now... he's quit Twitter, and moved to the Bubble Community of BlueSky, where all the censorship-demanding leftists are moving to.

lichtmansaysgoodbye.jpg

To hell with these "experts" who are incapable of acknowledging error or honestly judging the limits of their own claimed "expertise."

By the way, Cenk's getting red-pilled:


Cenk Uygur
@cenkuygur

I asked @elonmusk to put me in charge of cutting the Pentagon. And he said - what are your suggestions? I run the largest left-wing network online and a Democratic leader has NEVER asked me that question. The idea that they would take advice from a populist is disdainful to them.

Now, which side seems more open and inclusive? Which side seems more welcoming and which side tries really hard to drive you away if you disagree even a little with orthodoxy? Which side is asking for suggestions and which one is demanding compliance and obedience?

Maybe, like Ana Kasparian, he's also a Secret Right Winger (having Truth Seizures).

In one, Cenk mentions in their previous debate he asked Lichtman if the "keys" supported Biden, but Biden went out on TV every day and punched a baby, would Biden still win? Lichtman answered, "Yes."

Cenk is a bloviating jackass, but this question really nails Lichtman. He's wedded to his pet theory and reality has no place in that marriage.

Silver hardly is a paragon of accuracy and truthfulness himself, but if you want to waste time on X dig that exchange up--it happened in October, from memory. It is beyond hilarious. Like most contemporary leftists (Silver more or less is one of the few remaining actual liberals, to be fair), Lichtman is a deranged lunatic.

74 The keys weren't wrong, he just abused them. Ace already pointed out that two keys concerning the economy pointed to Kamala, when obviously the opposite was true. There is also a key regarding "No serious primary contest for the incumbent party nomination." He gave this point to Kamala, despite the fact there was basically a coup to get her the nomination. Looking at the keys, I can see three of them that might have leaned toward Kamala, leaving ten predicting a Trump victory.

75 After 2020 and 2024, both losing sides settled on cheating as the cause of their loss.

Republicans said it was vote fraud in 2020. And they set about cleaning up elections.

In 2024, Democrats are saying it's because Republicans cheated by 1) spreading lies and 2) not letting Democrats get their message out.

This is fantastic.
Because it means they absolutely are not going to do anything to fix why they lost.
In fact, they are going to do MORE of what caused them to lose.

yeah. I didn't know he was hiding it. Or maybe it was when he was rewriting the Blue Max. He told the producer, I cannot write this sober in 12 days, but I can write it drunk in 12 days. He had the studio pick him up every morning at 7am (or whenever) after he'd already downed like a half a pint of whisky, then he'd have another pint enroute, then remain drunk all day writing until 11 pm or whenever, at which point he'd be driven home as he continued drinking.

He was a real mess. I've mentioned Ian Fleming's interview him on the BBC. I thought Ian Fleming was a drunk but boy howdy, Fleming seems sober as a judge compared to Chandler.

153 I shoulda noted those were Senate race late night ballot drops. That changed the outcome.

Yeah one of the first things Gaetz should do is start arresting people for any violation of the law whatsoever in the election divisions of those states and let them know they are going to the Garland Archipelago until they rat out whoever was running the operations in each state.

That was so weird to watch with the Democrats. They just... could not get how bad things are for people. They fixated on one portion of the economy (which also started to fail): Unemployment. I get it, they're all elites they are rich, the prices aren't that big a deal to them but good lord how can you be so blind???

161 I didn't know he was hiding it. Or maybe it was when he was rewriting the Blue Max. He told the producer, I cannot write this sober in 12 days, but I can write it drunk in 12 days.

-
In the book, The Blue Max, Stachel's major malfunction was that he was an alcoholic. I guess Chandler missed that part. Also, Stachel survived the war, it was Hauptmann Heidemann who took the death dive. There was a sequel concerning Stachel leading up to WWII. In my humble opinion, the book was better.

She's trying to square the circle of the modern left being a graft operation that exists to steal from the middle/working class, mostly on behalf of the elites with the narrative that the left cares about the middle/working class.

That's why most of them end up deciding the middle/working class are rayciss and therefore deserve to be destroyed on behalf of Soros, Gates, Bezos, and the rest.

210 "act of blasphemy" sounds like he thinks he is a god.

But the definition might leave a little room for his statement, if he really was an "established convention" (but he is not even that).

blasphemy Noun
1. An act of irreverence or contempt toward a god or toward something considered sacred; an impious act, utterance, view, etc.
That imam said that drawing the prophet Muhammad is a form of blasphemy.

2. (by extension) An act of irreverence towards anything considered inviolable; the act of disregarding a convention.
Synonyms
irreverent language: cursing cussing execration imprecation profanity swearing
unholy act: desecration profanation sacrilege violation

I saw him talk about it BEFORE she dumped him. IIRC the interview he said that he was more into the idea then she was but he had to be true to himself of some such.

And the funny think is I used to watch a lot of the B-level political chats he would end up on and I don't think even there he was the exactly Mr Charisma that was going to get the ladies to swoon. The right leaning women looked at him with disgust and, actually, so did the left leaning women.

233 “Eight years ago, I was too young to feel the full force of Hillary Clinton’s loss. Now at 16, I’ve had the wind knocked out of me. On that Wednesday, I was flush with anger — but it was diluted by an even stronger feeling: defeat. I saw it in the eyes of women in my subway car that morning. I saw it in the barista at the coffee shop on the corner, the female security guard at my school and in the face of my history teacher.”

idk, but Trump may have won beyond the cheat. I do think we lost Lake in AZ, and probably a senator in WI, maybe MI and now still they party on in PA.

But also, there was division on their side, and Kamala was so terrible, perhaps some feared the outcome of laying their lives on the line for committing felonies on behalf of candidates that hated them?

Or maybe a lot of the Dem cheaters were sick of dealing with violent illegals?

247 If you use the final opinion polling, Gallup (until it quit polling since 2012), It picked Reagan over Carter 47-44 1980, Reagan over Mondale in 84--59 to 41, Bush 56-44 over Dukakis in 1988, Clinton 49-37 (Clinton came down in real result and Perot went up, Gallup nailed Bush votes), Clinton in 1996, 52-41 percent, 2000 Bush over Gore 48-46 (before release of DWI story), 2004- Bush 49-Kerry 49. 2008, 53 Obama--42 McCain, 2012, Obama 49, Romney 48.

Polling had its first miss (without Gallup) 2016--Trump 42, Killary 48.

Biden 51 to Trump's 44 percent in 2020, and Polling in 2024 leaned toward slightly toward Kamala at .1 percent aka .001 in the RCP poll.

So overall, just taking the Gallup poll winner, it correctly predicted the winner from 1936-2012 with only two misses--1948 and 1960 (both in October).

2016, national polling predicted Trump to lose the popular vote but by more than he actually did. 2020, curiously, the polling and Biden's actual percentage matched. 2024, again, national polling miss as Trump won both the electoral and popular vote this election.

Back in the French and Indian War once the brits got over their intital humilating losses and started getting going the Army raised troops and funds from the colonists by going to the colonial assemblies and saying, "we need X troops, stores and the like for this campaign" and the assemblies would figure out how to do so - a tax, or asking the rich folk to pitch in.

This worked pretty well the ensuing 5 years or so until the war was won. So when the Parliament started inventing taxes the assemblies were pissed that they weren't being consulted

294 Poll watchers wouldn't be relevant in all mail-in states, or even states with meaningful mail-in voting. Poll watchers wouldn't explain 2024. Recall that it wasn't just the farcical insecurity of mail-in votes, but the tabulation process in 2016 that was often without any credibility. Clark County NV actually edged out long-reigning Wayne County MI in that department - expelling observers, switching off signature-matching, etc. Absurd. Like an election in Belarus or Venezuela.

I've never seen a comprehensive and persuasive analysis of 2016. And with Trump winning, I'm fairly certain election integrity - already a quixotic exercise in a comatose civic culture like this one - is going to not get much oxygen.

He had no choice, courts ruled that it was a human rights violation to put people in asylums against their will. And, I guess I have to agree, but there needs to be SOMETHING we can do to get the really messed up people off the streets.

Scotus simply required more due process in Jackson v. Indiana but it raised the burden of proof to clear and convincing (sorta kinda similar in civil actions to beyond a reasonable doubt) for confinement.

O'Connor v. Donaldson in 1975 is what did real damage, It stated, "A finding of mental illness alone is not sufficient grounds for confining a person against their will. They must be found to be a danger to others or incapable of surviving safely without institutional care."

That can be done but it takes an awful lot of documentation. Clayton Cramer of 2A fame, wrote a book about how the laws affected a sibling with schizophrenia and how agencies compounded the problem via extreme risk aversion to do what they could do quite easily even with Scotus decisions.

315 >> Peggy Noonan is another such type.

It's a class thing with a lot of them, and that may be the biggest factor. Trump is just icky, low brow, not their sort of person.

I remember Rush Limbaugh (pbuh) talking about meeting Peggy Noonan for the first time. It was some Buckley thing, IIRC. She said, "Oh, you're the one that all the truck drivers listen to, right?"

And I think that was the same party where he mentioned that Buckley didn't know what a Diet Coke was. Buckley's wife did, though and got Rush his requested drink.

Lara Trump and Whatley were saying pretty much since the day they were appointed at the RNC their number 1 goal was election integrity and they were going to flood every swing state with hundreds of lawyers and poll watchers. They started filing lawsuits early and often every time a Democrat even hinted at going off the reservation.

That's why I was pretty confident Trump was going to win. Biden only "won' in 2020 because massive cheating was allowed and the RNC did squat. Not having a lockdown with millions of mail in ballots everywhere helped was a big deal but having a team that actually fought was the key in my opinion.

Yeah it’s terrifying and the irony is that he was a decent guy, he used to be in an asylum and it’s not how they portray it in the news or film (at least the good ones)

He was able to get medication, played board games, walked in the garden, did workouts and generally felt safe

Then they tossed him out because it was inhumane to keep him there because lefty feel bads

What a fucking clown world

386 Cramer's book length treatment is here:
My Brother Ron: A Personal and Social History of the Deinstitutionalization of the Mentally Ill"

"My Brother Ron is both the story of my older brother's descent into madness, and a history of how and why the United States (and eventually, most other Western countries) abandoned the old system of caring for the severely mentally ill, leading to widespread homelessness, increases in violence, and the general degradation of urban life." Available still on Amazon.

A lot of his discussion on the 2012 book was housed at his blog at the time but his webpage is vastly trimmed down from what it was due to his health problems.

I'm trying to remember that story Rush told about Buckley and the Diet Coke. He was at Buckley's spread for some to-do, and Buckley asks him what will have to drink. Rush says, oh a diet Coke.

Buckley gives him a strange look. Rush says he realizes Buckley has no idea what a diet Coke is. He shuffles off to the bar and comes back and hands Rush something in a glass. Rush smells it, WTF? and takes a sip. Not a diet Coke.

He says then Buckley's wife comes over, she'd heard the whole thing, gives Buckley a "You idiot!" look and then gets Rush his Coke.

In the book, The Blue Max, Stachel's major malfunction was that he was an alcoholic. I guess Chandler missed that part. Also, Stachel survived the war, it was Hauptmann Heidemann who took the death dive. There was a sequel concerning Stachel leading up to WWII. In my humble opinion, the book was better.

Disagree. Costner was awful but Snape's Sheriff was fantastic. Manic and malevolent. Somewhat aware of how broken he was but completely committed to his mad course. i still get a chill when Mary Elizabeth Mastrentonio screams 'Robin!' to warn him when he's trying to rescue her. I know how bad Costner is in this movie; but I absolutely love it.
