If nothing matters, Klansman likely loses

(CNN)Some people call Donald Trump's term in office the "nothing matters" presidency. The phrase is usually applied to Trump by his detractors, who cannot believe his standing with the American public is stable despite what he says and does. They mean it as good news for Trump.

Yet the numbers suggest something quite different. Nothing may really matter, but that's actually bad news for Trump and good news for his opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden.
The fact is that Trump doesn't need stability. He needs something to change because he's unpopular and losing the race for a second term.
Biden's been running for president for more than 500 days now, and he's been leading Trump every single one of those days. Biden's lead is so stable, as I wrote last week, that it's history making when examining elections since 1940. This steadiness comes despite two major party conventions, economic upheaval, the coronavirus pandemic and protests in the streets over the last six months.
