1) Trump has been trying to take credit for the boom he inherited since the moment he took office. ...and a lot of people believe him since they don't realize how slow an economic cycle is. Even if he totally fucks up all the trade deals, it won't cause a downturn quickly enough to make him look bad for 2020 to many people.
2) The legal case against him is iron clad, but that doesn't matter if Senate Republicans won't vote on that. Nixon did not have a cult of personality anything like Trump's.
3) The democratic party is looking horribly fractured. We have centrists who can't rally the base and leftists who aren't very popular with the middle. There are elements of the Republican party who hate Trump, but that's trivial compared to how much liberals are getting at one another's throats...
I don't have a solution, just venting. I still look forward to casting my totally irrelevant vote in a deep red state, haha.
