"The election ended a long time ago in one of the biggest Electoral College victories in history."

It's funny how times change.

It was a dumb, blustery thing to say then considering 306-232 is in the bottom quarter of margins of victory.

Biden's victory, while more decisive, is also not a "landslide."

Trump's win was a surprise in 2016. He can always hold onto that.
