I’m wondering how this might help Trump, give him an even bigger landslide in 2020.

It won’t.
Dangerous road to take, imo
If they thought that it would help President Trump they would not be doing it.

This will NOT help Trump ... or any Republican candidate in the future. That is why the Dems are pushing this in as many states as possible.
Once the number of states that agree to this reaches 270+ Electoral votes, its over. No non-Democrat presidential/vice-presidential candidate will ever win again.
Then the socialist will find the popular vote unconstitutional.
Thus far, it is only "blue states" that have signed up. Ohio would be the first "purple" state. With basically only "Dem states" signing up, there are only 2 possible outcomes: The Dem candidate wins the election by the usual methodology and margins... or the GOP candidate wins the election and the compact suddenly makes it a massive EV margin, if they get the popular vote total as well.
Imagine the Liberal heads popping next year if Trump wins "the normal way", but also happens to get the national total as well... giving him something close to a 450-88 EV win. They might seek to invalidate this silly NPV compact so that Trump doesn't get to brag about a "yuge" win, but he still remains in office anyway.
There is literally no downside for the GOP until more red and purple states sign on. At the moment, there are none... but Ohio is the first potential.
