'Election Nostradamus' makes another bold prediction about Donald Trump after successfully predicting 'Blue Tsunami' midterm results
A man nicknamed "Election Nostradamus" has made another bold prediction about Trump after successfully predicting a "Blue Tsunami" before the 2026 midterm results.
The Democrats swept to victory in the November 3 elections, securing control of both chambers of Congress and dealing President Donald Trump one of the biggest political setbacks of his presidency.
As of November 6, Democrats secured 54 Senate seats, while the party had won at least 253 seats in the House of Representatives, with several races still awaiting final results.
The party also secured Senate victories in traditionally Republican states, including Texas, Ohio, and Kansas.
Nate Silver predicts Donald Trump could resign before his term ends
Nate Silver, who accurately predicted a "blue tsunami" ahead of Tuesday's elections, now predicts that Trump might resign before his term runs out.
According to the Daily Mail, he shared his theory on his podcast, Still Counting, and suggested that the president could find himself increasingly isolated as Republicans begin distancing themselves from his administration following their electoral losses.
"I had just a weird intuition that maybe Trump will find some pretense to quit, you know what I mean? Because he could get very, very, very isolated, and that also could make him dangerous," Silver said.
The political analyst also said that while the 80-year-old is not "evil," he did give the Republicans a bargain that he now can no longer deliver on.
"I just think that Republicans made - I was searching for a more original metaphor - but a deal with the devil in Trump, right?
"And I don’t mean that to mean that he’s evil. I mean that in the sense of, like, you get your three Supreme Court justices, you get tax breaks for the wealthy, but you pay a lot of f***ing price for that," he said.
He also accused Trump of having "sucked out the oxygen from anybody else in the Republican Party," and he could eventually step aside and allow Vice President JD Vance to assume the presidency before the 2028 elections.
Trump makes surprising admission about Vance's political future
Sliver's comments come as questions continue to surround Vance's political ambitions.
During an interview with reporters on November 4, Trump was asked whether he had discussed a potential 2028 presidential campaign with Vance.
His response suggested that his VP's political future remains uncertain.
"I speak to him about a lot of things, but I mean, we'll see what happens," he said.
"Everybody, you don't know who's talking about running. You can have people running. You can have a lot of people, maybe a lot of people running, maybe nobody's gonna run...
"Maybe he won't run, I don't know who's gonna run," he added.
The comments came just hours after Vance published a lengthy statement on X, outlining four major reasons he believes contributed to the Republicans' devastating losses in the November 3 elections.
The 42-year-old pointed to the Trump administration's ongoing war with Iran as the primary reason Republicans lost control of Congress.
"The reason we lost is the war," he wrote. "The president himself said so last night."
He said he had discussed Republicans' loss of Congress with political pollsters who suggested that the problem was not that Republicans failed to show up.
"The main problem is that many people who voted for Trump/Vance in 2024 voted for Democrats in 2026," Vance said.
According to Vance, polling identified four key concerns among Republican voters: ending the Iran war, tackling the cost of living and inflation, putting America first, and changing the United States' relationship with Israel, which receives billions of dollars in annual US aid.
"Our voters showed up. And the above four reasons are why many of them voted for Democrats. This is according to a pollster who nailed the results," he penned.
Returning to the war in Iran, Vance challenged those who believed the conflict had been worth the political consequences.
"If you'd like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next six years was worth it, then do so. Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that's at least honest," he said. "But everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there."
President Trump responded to Vance's statement on Wednesday, saying it was "largely true," but added that the Iran war was necessary.
"I can tell you that as far as that war is concerned, I would have done nothing different," the president said.
Asked whether he agreed with Vance's analysis, the president noted that the conflict had pushed gasoline prices higher.
"I think it's largely true because it drove the gasoline up a little bit, short term..." the POTUS added.
