From AUSTRALIA with an outside observation:
The answer is YES but just as easily they could lose EVERYTHING just as easily.
What the American Left has forgotten is the ACTUAL RESULT of 2020. And for the record the American Left is NOT a real Left its just to the Left of the American Right which is so far Right most other Western nations can't recognise it.
Forget how many votes Hilary got lets just look at a couple of basic facts.
In 2016 Trump got 62,984,828 votes.
In 2018 the mid terms did NOT go well for the GOP. the did gain 2 seats in the Senate but LOST 41 House Seats and LOST 7 Gubernatorial seats.
In 2019 EVERY POLL said Trumps base was falling and his approval was falling. Even Fox News ran stories that were concerning.
In 2020 the Polls were even worse than 2019 and COVID was being terribly mismanaged and that included Trump pushing quack medical advice and straight out lying to the public.
YET when it cam tot he election Trump got 74,223,975 votes which more than 11 million MORE THAN 2016.
So despite all the polls and the catastrophic mismanagement of COVID and extra 11+ million turned up and voted for Trump.
WHEN HAS ANYONE on the American Left acknowledged that basic fact regarding Trumps turn-out?
Looking from the OUTSIDE the greatest concern I have is the Democrats FAILING to acknowledge 2020 wasn't that good of a result. They did NOT win outright majority in the Senate until later and then only by the narrowest of margins. They actually lost seats in the House and were slaughtered in the State elections.
YES WE GOT THOSE FACTS, but apparently the Democrats didn't.
SO YOU ALL KNOW why this is important to other nations like Australia, Canada, Japan, Great Britain, Mexico, all of Europe and many others. Its because the US Dollar (USD$) is still the World's reserve currency which was agreed on at Breton Woods in 1944. YES the Breton Woods agreement is long gone but its after effects are still with us.
Many of the international transactions the rest of the world does are either done in USD$ or currencies are exchanged and USD$ is used during the exchanges. When Australia sells iron ore to Japan, South Korea and China that's NOT done in Australian Dollars, Japanese Yen, South Korean Won or Chines Yuan - its done using USD$. Either they use USD$ directly or buy AU$ using USD$. On the reverse of that when we buy cars & stuff from those countries we don't send them AU$ we send USD$ or go a money exchange to get say Japanese Yen to buy a boat load of cars and that money exchange is underpinned by USD$.
Simply put NONE of us can afford to have an out of control rampaging clown like Donald Trump in the White House EVER AGAIN.
FYI - I was working in Canada when Trump just tore up NAFTA and slapped the Canadians with tariffs.
You guys have no idea how much that scares the rest of the world, when you have a temperamental clown surrounded by sycophants who will smack an ally in the face like that.
