Florida and North Carolina appear the most questionable of your map. That being said, if you are correct east of the Mississippi, I do not see a reasonable way that Donald Trump gets the presidency.

I predict Clinton wins but closer than that. Under 300.

FL and NC are ultra-questionable based on polls. But there is also an indication of very heavy early Hispanic voting in FL. Trump is really good at getting people out to the polls.

I think that is the most obvious map at this point, although I see Clinton as having the upside. I think AZ and OH are the two most likely to flip from this map.

They said Cleveland had an 85% chance of winning the series. That was a correct prediction.

Similarly, flip a coin three times and sometimes it really does come up heads all 3 times.

PS. I didn't say that 538 predicts that Clinton will win exactly those states. All they are saying is that they believe the probability of Clinton winning each of those states is greater than 50%. Some of those probabilities are as low as 55%.

Even if Hillary loses both FL and NC, she still wins 279-259. The key is to hold PA, if Trumps gets FL, NC and PA, he wins. Should be an interesting night.

And further she can also lose ME-2 and either NV or NH, but not both.

Remember that 269-269 is a Trump victory. Although it may still lead to a Kaine Vice Presidency. Given the evidence that Trump intends to let his VP run the country, that could be interesting. Interesting like experiencing World War III would be interesting.

He doesn't need PA to win, but yes, it would be the state that decides it if he wins FL and NC.

Curious, how would Kaine be VP. I don't know how that works. Some of the electoral college maps i was playing with led to 269 269.

Right. But 269-269 is very unlikely based on current polling.

If Trump gets NH, he'll probably also get ME-2 and have 270 votes.

On the other hand, we do have this possibility, if McMullin wins Utah:

The Senate would choose the VP. If Democrats take the Senate they would choose Kaine.

Yes. The second map, but with Trump getting UT, is one of his most likely paths to winning.

This is a good time to revisit this prognostication because it explains with a few mouse clicks why Trump is now the President-Elect and how Hillary and the Democrats blew it.

Their strategy shrugged off the traditional Democratic Party working class and put them in her Basket of Deplorables.

Those deplorables supplied Trump's margin in 3 states that were expected to go to Hillary: Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, all blue on this map.

Hillary threw them out so as not to irritate other Democrat interest groups. And Trump caught them.

Correct. And it's not just her. The entire Democratic party has been moving away from the working class, blue collar people, and becoming the white, white collar elitist party, while the Republican party has beeen becoming the party of the blue collar working class. Of course, the Blacks are stuck in the middle, with Republicans ignoring them, and the Democrats using, exploiting, and taking them for granted so they have a for granted voter base. They tried that with the Hispanics too, but they actually voted about 35% for Trump so that backfired, especially in a state like Florida.

If Trump does as he promised for the Black working class, and it works, you say see a lot more Black people abandoning the Democratic Party next time.

People would rather have a pay check than a gummint check.

Yes. If The Republicans are smart, and learn from their mistake, they will contimue welcoming the working class. And of course that includes Blacks. The Democrats Status quo, unless they learn from their mistakes.
As for Hispanics, if they went only 65% for Hillary, and about 35% went for Trump, imagine if Trump didn't have the stigma/reputation* of hating Hispanics. A "regular" candidate may have gotten even more of the Hispanic vote. Trump go 35% of the Hispanics on just being Trump.

If The Republicans are smart, and learn from their mistake, they will contimue welcoming the working class.

But large portions of their platform are hostile to the working class. So they either need to successfully continue their deceptions (which have been very effective to date) or they need to change their platform.

But Trump won't feel that he has to follow the GOP platform. In fact, presidents rarely follow their party's platform, once the election is over.
