In a negative way-- the eventual loser is defined in some way in May, and there's no coming back for it. (However, this was NOT true in 2008 or 2016, was it?)
Anyway, Trump is defined. Then again, anyone who is conscious has already known what he is.
The question is... will the 3-4 % not his base that voted for him in 2016 ("What do you have to lose?"
stick with him now? They were rejecting Clinton (to their shame, though they probably don't have the capacity to feel that) out of sexism and/or gullibility to the con man. They were "experimenting' with "political incorrectness."
Is what they got enough to steer them away this time?
I hope so. Otherwise, as Jefferson said, "Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just."
(But it's NOT just to have the country destroyed! Half of us aren't stupid racist greedhogs-- more than half, I hope.)
I tell you, I'll never again ask with contempt, "Why did all those 'good Germans' go along with Hitler?"
I know. "For the same reason so many Americans have gone along with Trump-- because he stokes their anger and tells them it makes them superior."
