I don't know anyone who voted for Trump in 2016 who would switch in 2020, even if the stock market dropped to 5000 and we were in actual shooting wars with China, NoKo, Iran, and Russia.
The options are:
Vote Trump.
Vote for whatever socialist the Dems nominate.
Vote for a minor party candidate, which would probably be a socialist or an anarchist.
Vote for a write in.
Vote for a write in cartoon character (but Bloom County isn't in print and BtC will get a swollen head if we nominate his namesake again).
Stay home and browse Netflix.
Honestly, the first one and the last one are probably gonna be the most popular.

If Trump can excite his base - which is looking good at the moment - and the Dems can't, we'll probably not only see him re-elected but the Republicans take both Houses.
STILL too early - and polling is looking weird in the Senate - but yeah, quite possible from what we see now."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot

Since I unexpectedly ended up in a swing state, it looks like it's going to be a major candidate, and not the one you want."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.
