a 10 point popular vote win is possible, but I wouldn't call it probable.

Predicting 350 Electoral votes has no basis in reality. If Harris were to win every state that is a toss-up today, she would only be at 319. Johnson had 486 Electoral votes. At that point we might as well predict a 50-state sweep again since we are just making things up.
