Polling Guru Has New Nickname For Trump After He Refuses To Debate Kamala Harris

Though he may not be a household name, Presidential historian Alan Lichtman has accurately predicted the winner of every presidential election since 1984, the only exception being 2000, when he picked Al Gore to defeat George W. Bush.

And now Lichtman is weighing in on a flip-flop made by convicted felon and former president Donald Trump regarding a planned September debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, Newsweek reports.

Lichtman, often dubbed the “Nostradamus” of U.S. presidential elections given his track record of accurately predicting the result, said on X (formerly Twitter) that “tough guy” Trump was “trying to duck out” of a potential debate after Trump’s campaign team said he would not commit to taking part. Trump had previously agreed to two debates with President Joe Biden, including the one on June 27 that many commentators believe was the beginning of the end of Biden’s re-election campaign.

Trump’s refusal to debate led Lichtman to dub the disgraced ex-president “Donald Duck.”

As you’d expect, Lichtman’s tweet led to a heated debate on social media.

Donald Trump is terrified of strong women. He always has been. Don’t be surprised if he continues to refuse a debate with Harris. He knows she’ll mop the floor with him, and that would effectively destroy what’s left of his fragile male ego.
