  I was outside of the country at the time, and From the outside it seemed pretty obvious Trump was going to win.

  But talking to everyone inside the US, they probably hillary was going to win.

  This time, everyone is super pessimistic about Biden getting reelected, but Trump is a felon, he’s half a billion dollars in the bag and he still has dozens of felony charges against him.

  Anyone that was on the fence knows from his first term that he didn’t follow through on any of his campaign promises and in fact is a narcissistic greedy demagogue.

  That was not the sentiment the first time around.

  Trump’s also been directly involved in a conspiracy to defraud the national archives and election officials, so everyone’s ready for him to try to steal this election also.

  In 2016, nobody took him seriously.

  People definitely take him seriously now as a threat, and he’s been found liable for rape, treason, election fraud, became a convicted felon and he doesn’t have much money.

  It’s not a lock, but Trump is in a much weaker position than he was the first time and everyone is aware of how much of a threat he is.

    Trump substantially closed the funding gap

    The outcome of the election is very much in doubt, and the reality is that Trump could win and put in place his dream of a thousand years of rich rapists
