I'm actually all for at least one model that perhaps over states Trump's chances.

It seems they are using economic data back since 1880(!) but not Presidential Approval. I think that is strange.

I mean, it's clear Trump will try and steal the election by 'vanishing' postal votes. It's why it's important for him to keep both the epidemic going and his base unafraid of it. So it's worth the model accounting for unpredictability.

You know he has no intention of leaving. Right?

The economics/incumbency 'boost' is new to the model this year?
