You are 100% wrong. Got something else for us?

Any of them, or anyone else the Democrats nominate.

The Republican Party should be preparing their backup plan. But I'm sure it is ready to launch. This charade can't go on much longer.

I have no idea. I find it somewhat unlikely that states who voted for Clinton in 2016 are going to vote for Trump in 2020. I think it really comes down to Pennsylvania. Trump might win Wisconsin without winning Pennsylvania, but I don't think he'll win Michigan without Pennsylvania. And I'd say that the Quaker State is a slightly Democratic leaning tossup right now.

I will believe that people 'know' who is going to win an election with many many unknowns that is over a year away, when they start putting their own money on it. Let the betting begin. Until then--it is all a lot of guessing without any facts.

I actually don't know why so many on the left are scared of him winning a general. Has the structure in the place, and grassroots organization and fundraising like no other in the field.

Trump is a freak one time thing. People were intrigued by him because he wasnt political. Like I said, he's a known quantity now so the allure is gone.
Maybe Sanders could win but people are seeing how badly they were burned by a populist on the Right. Not sure they would rush to choose another populist candidate, they may lean toward someone more boring and traditional.

You are right about the allure being gone. Remember how in the early months Trump led the media around by the nose with his ridiculous tweet-storms? Now everyone pretty much ignores them, like they should have from day 1.
