Earlier quoted context omitted.

On his Blog he wrote some insightful articles about how and why Trump will win. Unlike the mainstream media, he got it right. So I count at least two accomplishments.

He guessed correctly because he was shallow-minded enough to buy in, not because he had some special insight into the American psyche. Regardless, American media makes for an abysmal benchmark.

I'm interested how much of his articles you've read. Judging from his articles, he doesn't seem shallow minded to me. He is always able to raise clear and reasonable points in his articles.

I wouldn't say he has insight to American but rather human psyche and its biases, which you should know if you've read his articles.
