The incessant attacks ever since election day 2016 have taken their toll. Defeat is not a certainty but a definite strong and immediate rally is necessary. I hate the current reality but I'm not going to pretend things are going well. May he turn the tide once again. That is my hope. In the meantime this is reality.

Trump did not win big in 2016. He lost by over 3 million votes and 2 percentage points. Yes, I know we do not elect Presidents by popular votes, I taught history for a while. He won because of razor thin victories in states like MI, WI, and PA.
This.
In Pennsylvania for example he won by almost the same number of votes as the Amish population there, who traditionally NEVER go to the polls, but made an exception in 2016 cause even they could see that their future existence as a tribe was in peril. Will the Amish vote for Trump again in 2020 ? Doubtful. They will probably go back to abstaining from voting as they traditionally do. That alone could flip Pennsylvania back to the democrats.
Let me be clear here.
I want to Trump to run in 2020 and win.
I don't see any other alternative for us as men.
However, I think it’s very naive to think it's a forgone conclusion he will run.
It's also naive to think he will win no matter what.
The democrats/globalists/dark side/crazies doesn't even need to get more people to vote for them....they just need 5% to 10% of Trump supporters from 2016 to stay home.
That 5% to 10% who stay home could very well be the people who were made to look like fools, cause they fanatically believed for more than 2 years that mass arrests of 50,000 satanic paedophiles and a revelation of a US military master plan were always just "about to happen" cause an autistic, numerology obsessed, deep state created psyop, naming himself after a james bond character, told them so repeatedly on 8chan.
The number of strawman arguments and other logical fallacies in your posts is downright comical. Thanks for the entertainment. Trumps approval ratings have steadily improved, There's very little indication over the last two years that he'll be anything but successful at voter turnout. Look at his rallies. Bill and Hillary Clinton can't even fill a Costco parking lot.

Not sure if you are serious.. The GOP lost many seats in congress this past election thanks to redistricting, redrawing the lines for congressional districts. A lot of this has to do with flooding states like California, Arizona, Florida, and Texas with immigrants, both legal and illegal. They tend to vote Democrat. Take a closer look at California, which was mostly a red state up until 1992. https://www.270towin.com/historical-pres...elections/
The dems are trying to flip Texas, Arizona, Florida to go along with California. I hate to say it, but it's just a matter of time before they succeed.
For 2018, A lot of the Republican congressmen were retiring and in the new elections, were replaced by newly elected congressmen
Trump wasn't running in 2018. If he has another slew of rallies in 2020, and gets turnout in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Ohio, it's going to be very difficult for the dems to keep a majority in Congress. We still have 2 more years to see what Trump does in office, it's a bit early to be making 2020 predictions.
