Eric Trump was so confident of his father's victory that he made a bet on Air Force One on eve of election that he would get 320 Electoral College votes
Eric Trump was so confident in his father's victory that he made a bet President Donald Trump would win 320 Electoral College votes. The New York Times reported Sunday that while flying home on Air Force One from the president's final campaign rally Eric proposed a betting pool. The now ex-president's middle son said his father would win at least 320, while an adviser aware of the polling said he hoped they'd get to the winning 270. Trump got 232 Electoral College votes, nearly 100 short of what Eric Trump predicted, while President Joe Biden won with 306. Trump would have needed to retain Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona and Georgia and win Nevada and Minnesota too, to get more than 320. The Times reporting suggests Trump and his allies truly believed polling was fake, as no national poll ever showed Trump beating Biden in the election
