The economy has gone from President Donald Trump's greatest political asset to perhaps his biggest weakness.
Unemployment is spiking at an unprecedented rate. Consumer spending is vanishing. And GDP is collapsing. History shows that dreadful economic trends like these spell doom for sitting presidents seeking reelection.
The coronavirus recession will cause Trump to suffer a "historic defeat" in November, a national election model released Wednesday by Oxford Economics predicted.
The model, which uses unemployment, disposable income and inflation to forecast election results, predicts that Trump will lose in a landslide, capturing just 35% of the popular vote. That's a sharp reversal from the model's pre-crisis prediction that Trump would win about 55% of the vote. And it would be the worst performance for an incumbent in a century.

Cause we know all the models have been so accurate lately...
Sure Jan
Dems locking everything down for something like this , not going to work
All models depend on the input parameters. I bet this one doesn’t have a slot for “catastrophic Covid economic impact”
Sure. America will turn to an Alzheimer’s patient for rescue, and will entrust the economy to the party openly seeking to destroy it.
Lose to Joe? It will be horrendous fraud that will cause the President to lose, NOT the economy.
Same guy from Oxford who predicted 2 million deaths.
LOL, didn’t take long to replace their poll last week saying he would win in a landslide by capturing all the swing states.
The whole purpose of the Wuhan panic.
Right...
Well, models don’t lie...
Here’s another shovel full of fertilizer from Mr. Egan:

A CNN model is no more real or true than a glo bull(shit)model was.
Only took one person to write this tripe...in impressed. Usually takes to or three.
Lose to a guy who is basically, at this point in life, a crash test dummy.
If anybody actually took this seriously, there would be a massive run on guns and ammo.
WuFluCoup
Could they make it any clearer that this virus has been weaponized as a “Trump removal” device and the Dem/media complex is cheerleading the destruction of our economy?! The gleeful tone of the reporting of this “model” is such a give away.
The DEMOCRATS PANDEMIC..aka DEM PANIC did what they planned for....bring down TRUMP!
