Problem is, I rather thought this was going to happen in 2016; cf. all of the beginning-of-October polls that showed Clinton wiping the floor with him in a landslide.
Granted, last time around nobody really knew how he was going to govern, so there was latitude for people with zero actual experience with him (i.e., anyone outside of NYC or NJ/Atlantic City) projecting onto him what they wanted to see, which gave him the edge he needed in the places that turned out to matter (MI, PA,...), and I like to think he doesn't even remotely have that anymore.

But we'll see...
