Piers Morgan is the one journalist that I think best gets Trump. Further, he will call Trump out from time to time–and has about this very thing.As you have mentioned, Trump has made this about HIM and how wonderful HE is, and how bad the press is, and how incompetent the governors are, etc. He is playing to a choir that would vote for him if sacrificed a goat on the White House lawn. But he is losing his standing with those who, depending on Trump’s actions, will vote for him…or not.
It seems like the data supports your assertion.College-educated whites in 2016 exits: Trump: 48Hillary: 45College-educated whites in new WSJ/NBC poll 55
What I have learned is Trump supporters are not public with their support of him. Why, because the other side will slit your tires and key your car. Many of the Trump supporters I know don’t do so publicly and encourage their Trump supporting children to stay quiet.As a Trump supporter, I at times cringe when he tweets or talks. He is facing the most powerful forces …the DNC and MSM.Trump will win 2020 but will do so with a larger margin. Not a landslide but larger margin. Showing up to vote is a lot different than participating in a poll. Bernie supporters are lazy and won’t get out and vote and those who do are doing a protest vote for Trump. Blacks and Hispanics are shifting from 10
No one was calling for a landslide in the closing days of the 2016 race. That’s revisionist history. Most models had Hillary winning, but not by much, even though their probability of her winning was very high (indeed >90%).Not to mention the fact that Hillary earned 2.6m more votes than Trump did! Polls ask how many people are going to vote for a certain candidate, and Hillary won that race by over 2 points. The models/polling were right on target with the popular vote, they just underestimated Clinton’s weakness in the electoral college and that’s the race that matters.
Continuity of government may be a good argument for Trump to stay in power. We have a plan to overcome this COVID 19 thing, and I need to see it through. or something like that.I’m not sure if that will work, since they kind of wait and see how the disease is going before they make their decisions________________
Do you mean to say it’s a good argument for suspending or cancelling the presidential election and allowing Trump to remain in power beyond the length of his first term?

It’s clear as day to anyone who has sense, that Trump apparently surrounded himself with landmines…then steps on them the first chance he can get.
