The economy has gone from President Donald Trump's greatest political asset to perhaps his biggest weakness.
Unemployment is spiking at an unprecedented rate. Consumer spending is vanishing. And GDP is collapsing. History shows that dreadful economic trends like these spell doom for sitting presidents seeking reelection.
The coronavirus recession will cause Trump to suffer a "historic defeat" in November, a national election model released Wednesday by Oxford Economics predicted.
The model, which uses unemployment, disposable income and inflation to forecast election results, predicts that Trump will lose in a landslide, capturing just 35% of the popular vote. That's a sharp reversal from the model's pre-crisis prediction that Trump would win about 55% of the vote. And it would be the worst performance for an incumbent in a century.

Media has lost the trust of America and it may take a generation to get it back again.

Name one _institution_ in this country that has any trust left.
At my house, we still trust Trump and a handful of Republican legislatures.
Don’t worry, Quid Pro Joementia Biden the groping Pedo has what it takes to fix the Economy. Just ask him.
He lost me at the headline. “It’s an insane time for President Roosevelt to pick yet another fight with Japan, right after a naval catastrophe in Hawaii.” What a freaking moron. Next “model” he comes up with should be printed on stiff cardboard, rolled into a cylinder, and surgically inserted up Mr. Egan’s Hershey highway. On second thought, a sledge hammer would be better than surgery.
Well, there has pretty much been a run on guns for months.
That is a fart in the wind, all people are talking about arevthe governors , it was a great move
How do these idiots report these stories with a straight face?! The model clearly doesn’t take into consideration the candidacy of Creepy, Clueless Joe Biden....
Why pay attention to ANYTHING from Trump-hating CNN?
There are more of them than there are of us.

How many deaths really were there among illegals, Blue Dog elderly Ds, and captive D voters of color?
How have deportation and the wall affected the popular vote in the Blue states?

How do deaths and exodus effect redistricting?
If solid urban blocs are distributed randomly among various red states, are they then functionally diluted?
What real degree of attrition have the Ds experienced?
How did the stimulus affect voters by party?
How do college shutdowns disrupt D GOTV on campus/in college towns?

So Ferguson got a new job already?
...DJT loses to Slow Joe in November is if Michelle Obama agrees to run on the ticket with him.

Not even then.
They must’ve used Faucki and Birds model
lol
...Madison...

Without the out-of-state students, Madison loses its clout.
Without knowing the demographic effects of COVID vs shutdown, it’s difficult to forecast Milwaukee’s vote and even then, you’d need to calculate precinct by precinct. Rs countering fraud at the polls will cut any D advantage in Milwaukee.
I have no trouble imagining WI D fraud attempts, but then, neither does Trump. I think it’s going to be a cage match.
I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT!!
How about Fillmore, Cleveland and Grant?
That’s always been the plan. They wish it to happen and maybe it could happen. The leftist and fake right media is dead to me.
Consider the source.
Another failed model.
