That's pretty optomistic. At every single turn, the guy does or says something that would have completely tanked anyone else's entire political career, and it's still a nailbiter for the presidency. And this has been going on for a decade.

Trump isn't Nixon, and the electorate isn't the same as the early 1970s. This is a whole new ballgame.
