    Would is generally used for future events that will occur under only certain conditions.

    At least, I think that’s the pedantry that they are going for.

      That is correct.

      Yes, I’m being pedantic in a way. But Trump won’t win, period. He already lost in 2020 while being a sitting president. People wised up. They won’t be complacent.
