In my last article, I outlined the importance of understanding the election forecasting fundamentals that made Trump’s 2016 victory predictable, and why those same fundamentals point to an absolute landslide for the incumbent Republican in 2020.  You have been told that these bellwethers, indicators, trends, and predictors are negated by the unique nature of the 2020 political environment, but that is garbage, and everyone knows it.

This article will put you in the war room I inhabited on the night of November 3, 2020.  I noticed the fraud, even down to the county level, in the wee hours of November 4, and set out to work almost immediately on remedying this fraud, which is a mission that continues to this day.  If I was looking at Ohio in 2016, then I was looking at Florida in 2020.  All predictions rested on the trend of the Sunshine State in President Trump’s re-election campaign.

If polls were hyped up in 2016 to squash turnout for Donald Trump, it goes without saying that nearly every Trump supporter should have expected the same, but even worse, to oust an extremely popular and effective incumbent.  If you need a refresher, check out this article showing the Washington Post lying about a massive “17-point” Biden lead in Wisconsin.  This was only 16.5 percent off in the certified totals, and probably more like 22 points off in reality.

Whereas in 2016 I was watching Ohio and observing the coalition shift acknowledged by the media as it replicated itself in neighboring Pennsylvania and Michigan, I was watching Florida like a hawk to get a real read on how reelection night was going.
