It's far too early to count on Trump losing the election... In my estimation, there's still over 50% chance he'll be re-elected. All he needs is for some Covid metric to show improvement, and he'll claim that as a win at the key moment. And economically, due to the weaker lockdown measures, the US will come out ahead of many other countries.
The media is (yet again) far too eager to sell you the idea that "he can't possibly win", and as long as people continue to buy that, he (and people like him) will continue to be elected.
It's not very likely the US will come out ahead economically. Countries that had stricter lock downs seeing great economic revivals as case numbers dwindled and lockdowns get progressively more targeted and less intrusive. This can't be done successfully in the US.
To give an extreme example of where countries with stricter lockdowns will be soon, look at China. Their economy is almost already at pre-pandemic levels.
