      After correctly predicting Trump would win the presidency, Pittsburgh-based journalist @SalenaZito was unemployed & on her way to apply for a job at a bakery. Then, CNN called! On my latest #podcast, Salena shares her story--& discusses her new book! http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=9794 pic.twitter.com/XvUltFD66f

      How did @SalenaZito get 2016 right? She refused to take airplanes or highways, insisting on driving thru small towns. She showed up 2-3 days in advance of a Trump rally, checked into a bed & breakfast, went to churches, kids' soccer games, & gun ranges. http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=9794

          This is … not a valid method for predicting an election. Also, Zito was predicting a Trump loss even in October. — http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/presidential-campaign/300057-trumps-implosion-might-be-blessing-in-disguise-for … — http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/presidential-campaign/300528-trump-we-dont-need-no-water-burn-that-gop-down … — https://nypost.com/2016/10/20/why-trumps-fall-will-hit-hard/ ….https://twitter.com/mattklewis/status/993921757198389248 …

          Salena Zito never predicted that Trump would win the election. As a matter of fact, she actually did the opposite. https://twitter.com/mattklewis/status/993920829032468482 …

          You didn't even bother to do a quick, simple fact check about this assertion, which would prove that it's wrong. Great work.

          What she got wrong was the reason why people went for Trump: it had nothing to do with economics, it had to do with race

          And unlike most media talking heads she didn’t mute, block or demean those that backed Trump - she had a novel idea, she listened and engaged.
