2020 United States presidential election (TT2 Scenario)

The 2020 United States presidential election was the 59th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. The Republican nominee, President Donald Trump, and his running mate, Vice President Mike Pence, were elected to a second term. They defeated the Democratic ticket of former Vice President and former U.S. Senator of Delaware Joe Biden and U.S. Senator Kamala Harris of California.
The election was impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak of March 2020 to July 2020, as mail-in ballots were available in the majority of states.
Issues of the day included healthcare, immigration, the economy, education, foreign policy, and criminal justice.
Biden's cognitive health was also weaponized by the Trump campaign, as well as attacking Biden on the grounds of his ties to the Democratic establishment. Both Biden and Trump's sexual misconduct allegations were also a controversial topic of the election, with the Biden campaign resurfacing the Hollywood Access tape of the 2005, while the Trump campaign attacked Biden on the grounds of a sexual assault allegation brought by a former U.S. Senate intern in 1993.
