As far as I can tell the democrats have never taken over, from the Republicans, without the Republicans leaving a financial mess in their wake. This is a historical fact going waaay back. It is unlikely that the Dems can win the next election unless the Republicans screw up the economy, especially given the current figures (3.5% unemployment, etc) Its also a known fact that jobs are #1 and people tend to vote their pocketbooks.
I have believed that Trump was going to leave a financial disaster after his first term. He has created massive debt, etc. and maybe that is enough but that's pretty unlikely. He is obviously not well liked but gets credit for the current economy and its REALLY good!
In other words I just don't believe that Trump is currently beatable. When you throw in the continuous rancor within the Democratic party I fear that is a fact.
If the Dems had taken them all into court, after the beginning of all the really offensive stuff there might have been a chance to get the goods on him but that has been abandoned, by the Democrats so Trump gets to keep on wrecking the nation and, seemingly, nothing stands in his way. I fully believe he is running a criminal enterprise but that's just me and its pretty obvious that if there is any criminal activity its well hidden and, unfortunately, nobody is going to figure it out as there have been efforts along those lines for almost 3 years and all have, so far, failed.
Remember, its unusual for even 50% of American voters to vote in a national election. They showed strength in 2018 but the current indications is that people are tiring of it all and its unlikely they are going to come out. Its also interesting in who doesn't vote. Basically, the poor and the young and blacks don't normally come out in force either. This is just the way it is, I guess. I suspect we are an politically ignorant and politically lazy nation and we get to pay the price every day.
There are current polls that, pretty much, define our ignorance and its claimed they don't even bother to teach civics in high schools anymore.
