    He was going to lose when unemployment was 3.9%. And people who aren't voting for him now aren't changing their minds because Johnson & Johnson announces a vaccine.

    No. Don't get paranoid. Unemployment rate was like 4 something in 2018. Every one of the rust belt states that put Trump over the top except Ohio has a Democratic Governor now. Simple if difficult get out the vote and other campaigning operations will be enough to beat Trump by a lot.

    Remember when the governor beat his chest and slammed the libruhl media for daring to question the wisdom of his re-opening strategy? Interesting how the portion of cases coming back positive has gone up since the decision.

    Trump's willful negligence led to the deaths of 115,000 + x Americans. If that doesn't cost him re-election, every future incumbent POTUS can just point to him and say: well, I wasn't THAT bad, so I should win again.

    And will lead to the deaths of another 100,000 by the end of October.

    I just look at the map - and his approval/disapproval ratings have been the most unelastic of any President I can remember.
    Also - there is a huge part of the electorate that only focuses on elections when they come up - they aren't mainlining CNN and FOX 24/7. I just don't see Trump being able to pull out enough rabbits to change people's opinion of him.

    I thought I'd read/heard the book has already been given to some outlets for review. Hopefully that's the case. No way the lid stays on if it is.

    Alas alackaday this book ain't gonna say shit not already established by the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees. Bolton's as big a scam artist as Trump.
