Imagine for a moment that it is November 2020. The economy is shedding over 500,000 jobs per month, unemployment is back in the double digits, and the DOW is back below 10,000. The wall is not built and Obamacare repealed but not replaced resulting in millions of people losing their health insurance. That is the record that Trump will be running on. Will you still vote for him? If so, why?
Of course there will be a recession now that the Democrats have the house!!
But, yes, I'd probably still vote for Trump in 2020. But it depends on several things:
- What The Donald does with the rest of his first term.
- Who the Democrats run.
- Just how crazy the radical left gets.
Trump supporters are overwhelmingly white nationalists and stick-it-to-the-Libs nihilists. If he continues to pursue their interests, they will continue to support him. His job performance is irrelevant.
Calling anyone countering liberal social values a "nihilist" is ironic to say the least, when those values are entirely deconstructive, modern, and change by the day. Calling your categorization "spin" would be generous.
"Job performance" for the voting public isn't exactly the issue when the Deep State has been visibly trying to undermine Trump's presidency since before day one.
What does the public know? That the metrics and the horrendous hypothetical scenario that you try to link to his "job performance, even in the midst of all of the active undermining of this nation's choice of POTUS, are actually most well connected to the now rising interest rates that are the purview of the independent Fed that Trump is now openly criticizing for raising rates.
Rising interest rates that now look to be timed to hit their stride by the next election period, which can be safely assumed to be the underlying subtext of the OP's "gee wiz" poll of this forum.
To the public, and rightly so, it looks like more administrative sabotage of an elected President on the back of a healthy track record of such.
That's why the OP's apocalyptic scenario isn't likely to sway a lot of voters. This nation simply doesn't like when essentially treasonous subverters try to intimidate them or undermine their chosen President with strong arm tactics. Rising interest rates, at this point in time, can not be considered in isolation of other events and in relation to election timing.
In fact, watch that this type of continued subversion doesn't eventually backfire in a manner that is grander than you can predict. This is not the type of history that people have short memories in regard to.

Any white person who doesn't express continual self-hatred for being white is today's definition of a "white nationalist."
