The Democrats are doubling down on identity politics instead of dealing with bread and butter issues, so I think there is little chance the will do well in 2020, and third party candidates tout ideology instead of issues like jobs and security so I don't see any threat to Republicans holding on to the Mid West in 2020.Trump won Michigan.Yeah, try winning without the union vote.The other question is, do the Democrats want it back?
Tough for them, but after 2016, I am really unsure about how the voting blocs will align in the future.
This time. It all depends on Trump delivering the goods. My concern is that he doesn't, and even if the Dems don't try to get them back, some 3rd party person may actually grab them in 2020.
If Trump is smart he will try all the stuff he promised, and when congress stops him, go to the people and say " I need people elected to congress who agree with me to give you what you want".
The question is will the Republican Party allow itself to be used this way, or will he have to get 3rd party people involved.
