American University’s distinguished professor of history, Alan Lichtman, shocked the world when he accurately predicted that Donald Trump would defeat Hillary Clinton in 2016.

During a Zoom interview with The National, Prof Lichtman held up a note he received from Mr Trump in 2016 shortly after that prediction came to fruition.

“Professor, congrats, good call,” it reads, in large letters written in marker with Mr Trump’s signature.

This time around, using his 13 trends or keys system to predict the White House winner, he correctly predicted a Joe Biden victory.

As yet, the professor who has accurately predicted the US presidential contest since 1982 – when he tipped Ronald Reagan to win in 1984 – has not received any congratulatory note from President Trump.
