I doubt they can win the White House in 2020 unless a recession is in progress. Trump has been too good with the economy.

I will assume you are just being a homer that thinks every win is huge. There have been studies which try to quantify the concept of a wave based on past experience.
Based on our analysis of historical elections, we applied the following definitions:
U.S. House—Democrats gain 48 seats
U.S. Senate—Democrats gain seven seats
Gubernatorial races—Democrats gain seven seats
State legislative races—Democrats gain 494 seats

Democrats did well, but not that well. In particular they lost ground in the Senate. Their best performance was not the House but the Governors.
BTW Traditionally a landslide is 10%, last occurring in 1984. Ironic, don't you think?
