Re: @Bucky 2 - Trump voters

I've got to say you're really reaching to imagine Trump running again in 2020. I fully expect that by this time next year one of two things will be true: 1., Trump will be gone (various scenarios); or 2. we'll all have been converted to charcoal briquettes or whiffs of nitrogen, carbon, hudrogen and a few trace elements.

I'm not even kidding. The pigeons will come home to roost very, very quickly if he acts in office as he has as a candidate and PE. Take China alone: triggering a major trade war will crash the Chinese AND American economies, and the ripples are likely to tank Europe as well,. That's a lot of people who are suddenly poorer than they used to be. That is a very good way to motivate them to express displeasure in ways and at volumes that will get through to the half-way sane Republicans in Congress. Either way, he'll be gone by Christmas 2017 -- or long before.
