I feel pretty good about the election.
For example take the viewership of those who watch cable which is overwhelmingly about politics. They are likely voters. FOX blew the ratings for June out of the water. Tucker Carlson had the highest rated viewership record in cable history. FOX took 8 of the top 10 slots on cable. You know how people claim FOX is who the old people watch and they are not as important? Not true, FOX leads viewership in the key demographic ages between 25-54.

Trump supporters seem to be excited over voting for him this election. With Biden the voters are not excited about Biden but rather voting against Trump.
Biden isn't seeing the support of union workers like many Democrats have in the past. I don't know of a police officer that will be voting for Biden. And Biden does not have the support of many blue collar workers. They know the policies he is promoting will be a threat to their jobs. Whether it is the Green New Deal or raising taxes, they know these policies put their jobs in danger.
The overwhelming majority want law and order and people watching what has unfolded in this country since Memorial Day weekend has been a far cry from law and order. They think this nonsense of defunding police is insanity. And they are smart enough to notice the Democratic party is afraid to speak out against it because it is part of their base that is promoting it.
The black vote will be part of the swing vote this year. And Trump has a record of reaching out to the black communities in his 3 1/2 years in office. From prison reform to make right 1994 crime law, which Biden helped author when he was a senator, incentivized local police departments to lock up as many black people as possible, creating mass incarceration of African Americans, along with more prison cells and more aggressive policing. And the there was the 1986 crack law Biden was responsible for which came to be viewed as one of the most racially slanted sentencing policies on record as it treated crack cocaine as significantly worse than powder cocaine and ended up disproportionately punishing blacks and sending them to prison but sparing white folks who typically used cocaine. It is Trump and his administration that rectified that wrong. But doesn't stop there, the First Step Act, released thousands of people from jail (90 percent of whom were black). He has promoted “opportunity zones” that incentivized private investment into poor black communities, and also increased federal funding to historically black colleges and universities. This exceeded 100 million more than any president in history. He has been a strong advocate for school choice something that is very popular in black communities. In Trump's actions these past 3 1/2 years has shown the entire country that Black Lives really do matter.
The prolife group that call themselves Democrat have already said they will not support the Democratic candidate because of their policies on abortion.
Right now I am seeing many black people from civil rights activists, ministers, sports heros, economists, educators, law enforcement coming out in support for Trump.. In my 68 years, I have never seen such support for a Republican president among blacks.
