Can you really understand what he does from the odd Twitter post?
I agree he's not a pollster, but he's also not an analyst as you claim.
He's a statistician. He's not making predictions, he's sharing the statistical outcomes based on crunching others peoples numbers.
I don't see how you can be upset with what he says. He's dealing with a ton of uncertainty and bringing together a ton of disparate data.
To me it's like being upset with Excel because you don't like the financial model you created.

He just needs to stop

Also worth noting that two weeks ago he started working for Polymarket, a crypto betting hub that mostly features politics betting. Pretty sketchy.
