Admittedly, I'm not good at predicting partisan political stuff - Much of the time I don't know what I'm supposed to believe. But my concern when Trump first got into office was that things would go so nuts that the backlash would be strongest not from the rank-and-file Democrats, but from the hardcore Left. Then 2020 would end up being a race between the two whacked-out ends of the spectrum.
About six weeks after he got into office (2/25/2017), I said the following in this thread:
Will the Resistance fade?
Was I right?

The whole issue is Trump took on the gods of Progressivism.
He in the only one that dared smash their gods but challenging the notion that the media is unbiased and fair, to challenge the very foundations of Academia as being unbiased and fair, to begin to fight back rather than stick his tail between his legs and take it like all others have done before him.
This next election will tell us a lot about the assumed power of the media and their propaganda machine. Trump already smashed the assumed way to run a Presidential campaign.
