We read the Chinese Astrology Birth Chart of Donald Trump in 2016 before the 2016 presidential election. We also discussed the impeachment of Donald Trump in 2019 and the acquittal on impeachment charges of Donald Trump in 2020.
President Trump was born on Female-Earth Sheep Day at Earth Snake Hour in the summer of Wood Horse Month of the Fire Dog Year. The Female-Earth represents Donald Trump. His Lucky Elements are Earth and Fire. He will have better luck during the years of Dog, Sheep, Cow, Dragon, Horse, and Snake. 2020 is the year of Metal Rat. Rat is in the Water group. Water is connected to money, finance, or economy to President Trump. He has been working on the economic recovery for seven months due to the coronavirus pandemic. If the US economy plunges into recession in October, he has extreme difficulty to win the presidency in November.
Some media think Trump's October surprise scheme will likely fail. The zodiac sign of September 2020 was a Wooden Chicken. Chicken is in the Metal group. Without Fire and Earth, the campaign momentum was too weak in September. November 3, 2020, is the 2020 United States presidential election day, which is in the Fire Dog month. The morale of Donald Trump's campaign will move up to the peak. Trump can booster his credits on the US economy by sending the stimulus checks to Americans, having coronavirus vaccine ready, and moving up the Dow Jones index before November 3. Donald Trump doesn't need 50% of the total votes to win the presidential race. He only needs to win the Electoral College votes from the key states, and then he can win the US presidency.
