#1 People usually vote about the beans on their plate. And currently, there are a lot of beans after years of few. If things are still good economically in Nov. 2020, Trump will be very hard to beat.

#2 No. The short memory of voters will decide things were always so good and moar Clinton and Obutthole is the answer...

#3 In normalish election cycles, I would agree with you. But this is not normal times and the unions have been devastated in the rust belt. Work returning for these people after they voted for Trump will continue as long as the work does, IMHO.

The demoncratic part is broken there and with the current crop of insane leftist candidates, I don't see the workers returning to the fold so to speak.

#4 Expecting intelligent behavior from union members is a big stretch...

#5 Considering that the unions have been trying to force mandatory fees and losing with membership plummeting, I would give the now ex-union members the benefit of the doubt.
