According to a post on NewYork Times, landslides on presidential elections doesn't happen anymore, the worst-case-scenario is that the turn of events might become favorable to Mr. Trump's candidacy.
It's been 32 years since the last president won by a double-digit landslide, that is in 1984 for Ronald Reagan versus Mr. Modale, where the latter won only on Minnesota and the District of Columbia.
In the present century, there would be a lot of factors which would definitely hinder this phenomenon to happen again, one of such is the fact that the country is too disintegrated for a single person to be the sole public choice of anything nearer the two-thirds of the electorate.
