Nate Silver is a statistician, not a pundit. As Trump was absolutely unprecedented, it was very hard to predict his victory. Or rather, the only precedents were wackos such as Buchanan or Santorum, who never really took off.

Some disgruntled Trump supporters online call him "Nate Shillver" and even "Nate Copper". I find this hillarious.

Well, Nate admitted that he ignored pure stats in his early calculation r.e. Trump and took into account other factors. Presumably, the same was done with Bernie.
