Nate Silver and the Liberals' Unthinkability of Trump

Nate Silver wants his fellow Leftists to understand that the liberal media bubble does indeed exist.

It's what blinded them from seeing that Hillary Clinton was in danger of losing the election. It's what left them utterly blindsided by Trump's victory.

So are we supposed to be impressed by Silver's revelations?

If we are, I'm not.

Liberal media bubble?

You're kidding! I had no idea! Thanks, Nate, for enlightening me.
