I hope you are right that there is still hope. If Trump ends up winning a 2nd term I'll be pleasantly surprised.
Maybe I'm being too pessimistic but I've given up based on my gut feelings about the whole thing. It feels like everyone is against Trump and he stands alone. But I did see Lindsey Graham stand up for Trump so that's something positive. Maybe he doesn't stand alone.
No one in Washington is with him (except Ted Cruz, ever since he grew out his beard he's becoming more and more likeable lol), but there's a silent majority in the general public that's definitely with him... I think seeing the size of his rallies and his vote leads (before the #s were tampered with) gave him confidence.
And I remember back in college I had to read Machiavelli's The Prince, and one of the chapters mentions that in general, hereditary kings needed the support of the existing power structure maintain their position, whereas new kings, even if none of the existing nobility supported them, as long as they had the good will of the general public, then they had a good chance of keeping the throne.
It's going to be an arduous fight definitely but I don't think chances are 0.
