Well that's what viruses do...

You're giving strategic credit to something that isn't even alive, a complete happenstance anomaly.

I would be happier if the other candidate was not equally creepy and deranged.

Biden would be a poor president and nothing to celebrate.

Yes....Im sure if Hillary had won in 2016 and was prez right now facing the same circumstances Trump is at the moment.....all the Rs on CD would be saying: "shes still on track to win!"

Get real....Lincoln if brought back from the dead with JFK as his running mate would lose with these circumstances

This is false. The country isnt falling part, some liberal hellholes with failed leadership are.

I act like people are smarter than you give them credit for. The fault for local and global economic impact of Coronavirus doesn't sit with the Republicans. People know this.

Do you think the current madness of the SJW left and radical Dems is popular with the majority of the Country?

There's a reason Trump surgically rallied again and again in very specific podunk areas in key states.
And that's exactly what he's doing this year, including the Convention in Florida.
Except this time he has more black support, whereas in 2016 he really had no allies from the black community other than David Clarke and Ben Carson (eventually).

Democrats are destroying the country. How can Trump lose? Look at all these liberals on CD and elsewhere saying that they've had enough.

But go ahead and put your money on Biden. Hillary 2016!!!

As I've often stated, in 2016 the Trump campaign was in the right places at the right time. Hillary's campaign was in the wrong places at the wrong time.

But it also true that Hillary (and the Democrats) were trying to run the table on three consecutive terms in the White House. Not an easy thing to do even with the best of candidates (and Hillary wasn't that).

Even with all of the above factors, the 2016 election came down to about 80,000 votes spread across three states.

The Trump campaign is having to spend more money than expected in states like Ohio which he won by 8 points in 2016. Not saying he loses Ohio in 2020 but playing defense isn't what his campaign advisors would have planned for say 6 months ago.
