No one reasonable is going to be saying he was on track to win the election. Even in a favorable 2018 environment where Republicans wanted to hammer down the message of a good economy, and run on Republican optimism, it didn't pan out so well for them. Even with the amount of incumbents representatives that weren't anywhere as controversial as Trump (with some even being a bit moderate) they still wound up losing. Although it is giong to be inevitable his legacy will summed up and attributed in a significant part to his response on Covid, much like the many Roman Emperors and their failures to deal with big issues that have allowed countless successors to claim legitimacy by de-legitimizing their predecessor. Which is exactly the views people hear/read about of their accounts in their own re-tellings, and history books for centuries to come.
