Because he's worked harder to lose in 2020 than democrats did to win in 2016

I was one of those who was sure Donald Trump would lose in November 2016. For me, the idea of anyone voting for him after the infamous ‘bus video’ seemed so remote that it was obvious he was not going to win. But that was the big mistake I and tens of millions of Americans made in the run-up to the election. We were only considering why he should lose, not how he could win. It was a mistake that left many reevaluating their perspectives and the very nature of politics in America.

For months after the election Democrats were in a state of bewildered depression and anger, symbolized most directly by Hillary’s recollection of the loss in saying, “There are times when all I want to do is scream into a pillow.” The recriminations came from far and wide. Clinton did not have a clear message and she should have campaigned in Wisconsin. Her misuse of a personal server doomed her, and Jim Comey’s letter nailed the coffin shut. And of course, the Russians and WikiLeaks destroyed the Clinton campaign through social media and “fake news”.
