You are right. We lost already, so don't even waste your energy voting.
Dude, you have a president that won by the thinnest razor-sharp margins (lost popular vote). On top of that, he was against a candidate that was unpopular that clearly alienated the progressive base while fueled the right-wingers. On top of that, there was overconfidence that chances decimated the turnout for democrats. The guy won by the most unlikely combination of events that are not going to repeat, certainly not all at once. To add to this, he has not won hardly any voters since he became president if anything he has lost supporters. Long time republican organizations and people are actively speaking against him, campaigning against him.
There are half a dozen national crisis in our country right now... and he is the incumbent.
He lost the house of representative by big margins and many governorships. Those republican candidates that tried to cozy up to Trump for a win, lost. As a result, most if not all of the senators/representative going into election now are trying to keep distance with trump (something that is hard because when they do they get lashed out by him, see Lisa Murkymurky and Mitt Romney.
Even if he could fix the current turnmoil in this country to avoid a massive turnout of black/democratic/progressive voters... you still have plenty of scandals in the pipeline that we are expecting very soon:
John Voltron's book on how he doesn't give a shit about presidency.
Trump's own niece's book on how Trump is precisely the vile asshole we all know he is
and the Taxes which are probably going to receive action in July... which is unlikely to uphold his "protest" and release them to congress. We all know that when and if that happens we will get an insight of whats going on. Even if it is not a leak (which I think it WILL happen) you might see "proposals" that will hint at what is in the taxes indirectly as the media tries to reverse engineer from there backward.
There is plenty of time for adds to remind his voters that he used the wall as a prop for the 2018 elections and then quickly forgot it and nothing has been done.
There is plenty of time for adds to remind his voters how he shut down the goverment for over a month as a dare contest against nancy pelosi and lost like the little bitch he is.
There is plenty of time to remind his most racists voters that under his watch, we will have a more inclusive world, we will get rid of aunt jemima shit and confederate flags inside NASCAR. I am not saying that the 60M people that voted for Trump voted exclusively because they wanted a racists... but if only 1Mil of those did... now they don't have a good reason to go out and vote for this guy.
There is plenty of time to remind the voters that the Judge that he put in the court not only rejected Trump's administration case against LGBT but actually wrote the decision himself. Throwing cold water at the illusion that just putting a bunch of judges in the court will get everything and anything these fucking bigots want... Another reason for those fanatic evangelics not to go out and vote.
There is plenty of time for adds to show how Trump has made our country look weak and has alienated our allies.
There is plenty of time for adds to show how Trump abused the military against our own citizens
There is plenty of time for adds to show how many respected militaries leaders do not respect trump but actually think he is an irresponsible maniac. I don't personally give much weight to this, but this is one of those non-sense shit that republicans like to run on... their "love" for the military.
All that trump has in his favor is the years of anti-democrat hate that half the country has... and that is not going to be enough.
The noble lie about masks and coronavirus should never have been told
That lie, if I remember correctly, was first spread from the podium by people from the CDC/NIH, the federal government. Probably with "good intentions" because it was to preserve PPE for healthcare providers since at the time the news were all about PPE and the chaos that occurred in Italy scared the crap out of everyone. I am pretty sure they very well knew they were lying, anyone that have BIOLOGY 101 training would know that. I was in fact surprised that it did not receive enough criticism/backlash early on.
Of course, this lie was necessary only because of the administration's complete failure at tackling the pandemic. If instead of playing and boasting how shit would "magically disappear" we had leadership that commanded the creation of PPE and created a system to put quota/administrate this... maybe the lie would not have been needed. China built a hospital in 6 days... we couldn't build paper masks to save our population. China tested millions of people in 1 week, our government did not even attempt to regulate panic buying in the stores. China has temperature checkpoints everywhere. Our fucking "leader" has not promoted a consistent, unifying message as to mitigate the surge of cases during opening (which is after all what he wants).

They are afraid Trump rallies will be bigger than the riots.
ROFL
Even his inaguration pales in comparison.
You know who made a shiton of rallies? Fidel Castro... He loved the attention, he loved having hundred of thousands and even millions gather to hear his stupid speeches. This is what Trump is... a dictator wannabee. There is a half dozen crisis in this country that are not going away anytime soon. His energy and time should be focused on those issues and not on boosting his ego or playing golf. It is pathetic that in a country with racial tensions, police morale in the floor, a pandemic, economic uncertainty this guy is wasting his time in this shit, exposing his supporters to a potentially deadly disease...
