With the economy the way it is and unemployment at 3.5%, I can't see this swing for change enough to win the presidency.
Trump is a solid favorite now. close to -200 with the bookies.

The US economy is a house of cards. Consumer debt, corporate debt, and government debt are all at ALL TIME highs. Environmental protections are being gutted. Trump's policies only exacerbate these problems. When the bubble bursts, it will be an ugly, ugly situation.
The way I see it, the US population can either choose a few more years of a sugar-high economy with a ticking time bomb attached to it, or they can choose to defuse the bomb by electing a democratic President and congress.
