I see no way for Trump to legitimately win the election.

And that is where my fear lies. What illegitimate ways will they try and will any succeed.
One caveat is that here in 2020 a month can seem like a decade, so what the landscape will look like on Nov. 3rd is anyone's guess.
It was only a week ago that we were pre-debate and pre-Trump Covid.

If it weren't for voter suppression, other possible cheating and election rigging, and the scary prospect of Trump et al creating as much chaos as possible by challenging the outcome no matter how bad Trump's defeat actually is, I'd say I was as confident as one can every be that Biden is sailing toward an easy, definitive win.

Hard to win with all his helpers stuck in covid traffic:

No press secretary McEnany
No campaign manager Stepien
No RNC Chair McDaniel
No debate advisor Christie
No Russian liason/propagandist Ron Johnson

Add to that - with over a million sick in Russia, Putin may be stuck in covid traffic too.
Nobody is coming to save you trump - you will lose this election all by yourself.
