Nothing about the u.s. electoral process makes sense from the view of more modern democracies.
And while I never thought that a u.s. democratic win was guaranteed, surveys and polls are no longer trustworthy (also a problem here in Germany btw.), I can't stop thinking how much more in favor for Trump this election would be going without covid-19.
The current president is a cheating, senile, racist, selfish, dividing, corrupt politician that downplayed and mistreated a global crisis. He is as bad and as unelectable as it gets and it's still down to hairsplitting?
Not just an U.S. problem btw. Look at Brexit, the rising AFD and Qanon conspiracy idiots in Germany or Poland recently electing a right-wing shit party (also very closely).
I don't have high hope and I'm a bit sad.
