I guess Trump thought that he had 2020 in the bag. He was objectively doing well economically, he was doing well on foreign policy and he was "owning" the media. He underestimated how much the left control the narrative but his ego was to big.
On top of that Democrats would never have agreed, they could not let a Republican, especially Trump give amnesty to immigrants. Their best attack against him was that he was racist and they are pro-immigrants.
Once Democrats won they could have done amnesty when ever they wanted anyway.
Trump's ego is a big problem.
He should have never even entertained any deal that includes amnesty for ANY illegal alien.
He initially ran on no amnesty, he should have kept that promise while in office.
Trump's poor personnel selection and his ego were ultimately responsible for why he was unable to win 2020.
If he had fired Fauci early and ended lockdowns much sooner, not signed CARES act and stopped violent BLM riots with Insurrection Act, he would have won 2020 as Dems would have been unable to flood the zone with mass mail in ballots and Dems would have been unable to use COVID and BLM against him.
Too bad Trump refuses to learn from these key mistakes.

2020 was probably unwinnable for any incumbent. A historic economic collapse will do that.
