All I'm really willing to say for sure is that the consistent even if sometimes misplaced confidence and optimism that I felt going into elections under Trump has been replaced with cautious anxiety and heartburn. Democrats have won or came close to winning governor elections in R-leaning states under similar circumstances but with a unpopular Republican president. The party out of the White House always tends to be more motivated and independents, at least over the past ~15 years, have tended to get pissed off with the incumbent president's party usually within a year or two of taking office.
That being said, polls in recent years have also left me with less confidence in their predictive power so IDK. Guess we'll find out soon!
