Sexism the reason for Kamala’s defeat? Allan Litchman answers

Allan Lichtman, renowned for his 13 Keys Prediction Model, opens up about why he was wrong in predicting Kamala Harris’s 2024 victory. He blames a tsunami of disinformation, amplified by conservative media and influential figures like Elon Musk, for distorting perceptions on critical issues like inflation, immigration, and crime.

Lichtman also critiques the Democratic Party’s weak messaging and internal divisions, which he believes contributed to their loss. He warns about the deepening divides in U.S. politics and the growing threat of authoritarianism under Trump’s leadership, shaped by rhetoric that stirs racism, misogyny, and insularity.

In this candid discussion, Lichtman reflects on the dangers of misinformation, the challenges democracy faces, and how his prediction system can evolve.
