A recent survey carried out by CNN revealed that the majority of Americans predict President Donald Trump will win a second term in 2020.

The survey, conducted with SSRS, A random national sample of 1,006 adult respondents were surveyed for the poll between May 28 and 31 shows that 54 percent state their “best guess is that Trump will win the 2020 election,” while 41 percent believe he will be a one-term president. (41% that are still in denial).

The respondents were contacted via telephone and polled by a live interviewer. The poll has a sampling margin error of plus or minus 3.8 percentage points and is larger for subgroups.

The stats show Americans are more confident about President Trump’s re-election chances than in December. Last year, 51 percent believed the president would be defeated in the next election.

CNN further notes: “Americans are slightly more apt to say Trump will win now than they were to say Barack Obama would win a second term in May 2011, in a survey conducted just after the death of Osama bin Laden (50% thought Obama would win in that poll).”

American University professor who correctly predicted President Trump would triumph over Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton Allan Lichtman, concurs with Fair.

“Trump wins again in 2020 unless six of 13 key factors turn against him,” he said in a recent interview with CNN. “I have no final verdict yet because much could change during the next year. Currently, the President is down only three keys: Republican losses in the [2018] midterm elections, the lack of foreign policy success, and the president’s limited appeal to voters.”

“If the election were held today, Trump would win according to the models — and pretty handily,” Moody’s Analytics chief economist, Zandi said. “In three or four of them, it would be pretty close. He’s got low gas prices, low unemployment and a lot of other political variables at his back. The only exception is his popularity, which matters a lot. If that falls off a cliff it would make a big difference.”
