According to Christophe Barraud, regarded as the world’s “most accurate economist,” Donald Trump will almost certainly win the United States presidential (s)election. Ranked by Bloomberg as the top forecaster of the American economy, Barraud made the comments as Trump leads by less than one percent.
Barraud is chief economist and strategist at Market Securities and has been awarded the title of Top Forecaster of the US Economy by Bloomberg every year bar once since 2012.
With only one week to go until the (s)election results are announced, Democratic candidate and current vice president Kamala Harris leads Trump by less than one percentage point, according to the New York Times and as reported by RT, which has reported that the gap is narrowing and that battleground states remain “extraordinarily tight.”
Making his prediction in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, Barraud wrote: “Looking at different metrics such as betting markets, polls, election modelers’ forecasts, financial markets, as of now, the most probable outcomes are: Trump victory; GOP clean sweep.”

This will make those statists on the conservative side still stuck in the left vs. right paradigm lie happy.
“A Trump win with a Republican sweep” and a majority in the Senate would enable the new president to implement tax cuts for corporations and households, as well as focus more on domestic rather than foreign policy, Barraud said. It would also have a short-term positive impact on US economic growth, creating a GDP boost between 2.1% and 2.3% in 2025, he added, according to The New York Post.
So-called election “Nostradamus” historian Dr. Allan Lichtman, who has predicted nine out of the 10 past elections, is betting on Harris to pull off the win.
Either way, the slave class loses as another ruler takes control over everyone.
