Trump is so awful that he is going to lose to a neurologically damaged 77-year old who slurs his words, sniffs hair, loses his train of thought, misnames governors, forgets where he is and mutters incoherently.
Big time.
In 1988, George HW Bush won 40 states and 426 electoral votes.
He then presided over a popular war effort to defend Kuwait against an invasion by Iraq.
He had an average approval rating of 60.9 % and it went as high as 89%.
The economy stumbled in his re-election year and he only managed 168 electoral votes and 37% of the popular vote to Bill Clinton's 370 electoral votes.
Now Trump has been below 50% (often in the low 40s) his entire presidency even as the economy was humming along and hitting record stock and unemployment numbers.
He is going to try to get re-elected while the country possibly goes through its worst economic collapse ever.
And he's facing a likable moderate candidate who appeals to blue collar workers and never-Trump conservatives while also carrying a base frothing at the mouth to vote against the ever unlikable Trump.
Couldn't have summarized it better... but are we sure the electorate is reliable enough to save the country?
