He’s right, he is just clueless on the mechanism:
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg (I) says President Trump is likely to win reelection in 2020 because Democrats will be hamstrung by the deep fissures between the liberal and moderate wings of the party.
Speaking Tuesday night before Republican Karen Handel claimed victory over Democrat John Ossoff in a special House election in Georgia, Bloomberg stood by his previous statement that Trump has a “55 percent” chance of winning reelection.
“The incumbent always has an advantage,” Bloomberg told CNN.
“And the Democratic Party is going to be torn apart by the left and the centralists,” he continued. “Now, the Republican Party is also being torn apart between the centralists and the hard right, but they’ve rented a candidate. The candidate has rented a party, and they will probably without much fuss get behind Donald Trump, I would assume, assuming he runs for reelection.”
Democrats are struggling to turn the energy from the their grassroots base into electoral victories. Many in the media cast Tuesday night’s special election in Georgia as a referendum on the Trump presidency. The GOP candidate triumphed in what ended up being the most expensive House race in history.
Notice, the fractures are due to splits that did not exist in the past. Where did the fracture come from? In 1776, everyone would have qualified as a bonafide right wing extremist. When they had disagreements, even the leftists would head to the handguns, and demand a duel.
As time went on, the population shifted toward the left, as the r-selected reproductive strategy emerged among a segment of the population which was biologically predisposed to exhibit it in response to free resource availability. This fractured the population as new cohorts spread out to the left. On the left you ended up with democrats pitted against the ultra-left anarchists and SJWs, while on the right the conservatives saw the Cuckservatives and Establishment elitists split off from them.
Today, with dopamine eliciting stimuli unlike anything we have ever seen in our species’ history, from videogames, to smart phones, to delicious fast food and sexual stimuli everywhere, those predisposed to the r-strategy have gone so r they even think other people should have to supply them with free birth control. They actually demand unlimited sex with absolutely no risk of ever having to invest in any rearing of any offspring – and that everyone else pay for it.
These splits are not philosophical, intellectual, or logical. They are divergences between the r-selected reproductive strategies and the K-selected reproductive strategies in our populations that have been exacerbated by the extreme period of ease, plenty, and good health that the most affluent and protected among us have seen, and the increasing number of threats and hardships those in the less affluent areas are beginning to experience as K-selection creeps in.
Pockets of the nation are maintaining their heightened r. As they do, the tsunami of K-selection has begun to wash back, first hitting those in less affluent areas, as it moves up to economic ladder. Knowing that, you can see the trend now is toward increasing K.
All we have to do is wait.

The Dems right now: https://fat.gfycat.com/LeadingAcceptableHydra.webm
It could be industrialized agriculture (fertilizers, tractors and refrigeration) that enabled much higher food production is the source of these problems. We may be in a centuries long r induced food glut, one that may continue for several more decades. In the past people who were screw ups just starved to death, since the 19th century however there has been enough food to keep losers alive and breeding. Once global supplies of oil and phosphates run low (on a per capita basis) and welfare-fiat currency states collapse the industrialized food era will come to an end. With that industrialized psychologies of leftism, socialism and marxism will also come to an end.
On their best days, the Democrats are a fractious coalition of perfidious parasites. Their only currency was the favors they did for the Clintons and the favors the Clintons promised in return. Having lost this Schelling point, they now must appease all factions by choosing a leader who’s a disabled transsexual black lesbian Hispanic Muslim woman.
They’re about where the Soviet Communist Party was in 1980. The old guard is dying off, and they can’t find any younger people stupid enough to parrot Marxist propaganda yet smart enough to run a country.
With the Republicans in Congress pretty much doing nothing, or even actively running flack for the Democrats (viz: McCain) do the Democrats really even need to win elections to push their agenda?
