Politico: ‘We’re thinking landslide’: Beyond D.C., GOP officials see Trump on glide path to reelection
Conventional indicators suggest the president’s bid for a second term is in jeopardy. But state and local GOP officials see a different election unfolding.
By most conventional indicators, Donald Trump is in danger of becoming a one-term president. The economy is a wreck, the coronavirus persists, and his poll numbers have deteriorated.
But throughout the Republican Party’s vast organization in the states, the operational approach to Trump’s re-election campaign is hardening around a fundamentally different view.
Interviews with more than 50 state, district and county Republican Party chairs depict a version of the electoral landscape that is no worse for Trump than six months ago — and possibly even slightly better.

WNU Editor: The polls are predicting a disaster for President Trump .... Biden ahead by 14% among registered voters; Trump approval below 40% (Abacus Data). I think it is too early to predict what will be happening in November based on today's polls. Events are changing the political environment almost daily, and no one knows what will be the top news story next week let alone months from now. But there are certain things that I am watching. The first is who will be Biden's running mate. I do not think Biden will be healthy enough to finish his Presidential term. He is already having problems now, and it is sad to say that when you look at how he was 10, 15, 20 years ago to who he is today, he is just a shadow of what he use to be. That is why his running mate will be important. Because if she and Biden do win, she will be the next President before 2024. I am also watching how the pandemic is behaving. If we have a serious second wave in the coming months it will be a disaster for the economy, and many will blame President Trump.
