Flight 93 Calculus in the 2020 Election

The "Flight 93 calculus" is a political metaphor originally used in 2016 to describe the urgency of voting for Donald Trump to save the country. The analogy suggests that voters must "charge the cockpit" of the government to prevent a national disaster, even if the outcome is uncertain. The term has resurfaced in 2020, with some anti-Trump groups attempting to repurpose the metaphor against the President.
