Nate Silver knows sports much better than politics.

Trump is smarter in the world of politics. Silver is smarter in the matrix of politics.

Nate Silver is right, in order for Trump to win, he needs an absolute majority of delegates. In a split field like this, he might get away with a plurality, but that's not enough. Without a majority, Trump loses at a brokered convention. The odds are stacked against Trump on multiple levels.

Donald Trump obviously. He has the best instincts - Nixon's brain, Reagan's messages.

Silver has great analytical and computational skills, but he is easily bested by Trump in politics, where emotional intelligence is key.

Exactly! Trump is a genius and Nate Silver is autistic when it comes to social and emotional intelligence.
