I believe that if the DNC didn't crap the bed in 2016, dem voters wouldn't have felt disenfranchised enough to vote. Also, does Biden motivate black voters? Five Thirty Eight tells the story pretty clearly. I don't believe Trump has expanded his base. He'll win if 2016 is replicated in terms of turnout. He'll lose if turnout is similar to 2012.

I think I just pretty much stated that I'm on the fence and you responded that your belief is that nobody is on the fence.  Interesting.  HA !!!

Anyway, from a financial perspective, we may need Trump now more than every.  It's going to take a few years to get the economy back on track to where it was and then implement Phase I and potentially a new Phase II of the China trade deals which we need for the long term future.  While I like Biden's diplomacy with our NATO allies, I think Trump is 100x more knowledgeable with regard to the world economy; which is critical to my ~ 4 year retirement plans which coincides with the next presidential term.
