I think what they’re saying is that Americans don’t pay attention and forgot how terrible the Trump presidency was because it’s been a few years. Most people think that “we’re better now” and any major issues have abated without understanding that nothing has fundamentally changed. Because of all that, Trump will win the election. The DnD portion of the post is just what got OP to think about this.
Sad thing is that there’s merit to the argument. It’s the old trope of “Americans have short memories.”
I think Trump will win the election because of manipulation through targeted social media activities, if not direct manipulation of the results, but that’s just me.
