re: #215 HappyWarrior
I have to agree with you. That’s also why I don’t think we’ll see a 1964, 1972, or 1984 type landslide in my lifetime. I of course hoped and thought Trump deserved to be landslided the most of anyone in history two years ago but I knew it wasn’t going to happen even when I thought HRC would win fairly convincingly.
With the right nominee, I think 2020 could be a pretty big landslide. But those three elections were also fairly popular incumbents against a rather uninspiring challenger. Very different circumstances, I suspect 1976 will be a solid template for 2020 (I don’t see an independent giving us 1992).
