Or, he couldn't. I'd say this is about as likely as Democrats winning both Georgia and Alaska - plausible, but it'd take a certain kind of landslide. Fact is, Ohio is highly urban and has a decent amount of minorities. The Democrats' floor is probably above 40% (or what a 20 point victory would take). It's unlikely that he'd break through the Republican's ceiling, but who are we to speculate?
And Ohio is very much still a swing state. It's gone Democrat in 2 of the last three elections, and if Democrats move in the right direction in 2020, it will very much be in play, regardless of what Non Swing Loser wants. If we can get minorities to turn out or stop bleeding among working-class whites, it's simple math - Democrats can win here.
