I agree with you there.

Bingo! Sadly, you're in the vast minority for doing some homework and keeping an open mind.

It is possible to take a dangerous entity seriously while recognizing it's integrity and lack of competence.

Trump will not even be a consideration in 2020, for several reasons: his age, he does not even look like he likes the job, he may resign before then, he may be impeached before then, or something really bad happens to him, but no matter what I do not see him even being an option.
I do find it funny how the trump supporters talk of his running in 2020 when he has been in office only 6 months and has yet to really accomplish anything, obviously the koolaide is a little too strong for some.

I think media types, based on their recent history, should stay out of the prediction business and that someone could do a whole three hour documentary revisiting wrong news media predictions.

Have no qualms or issues with Trumps presidency.

I am voting on the issues I stand for and pick the candidate closest to supporting those issues. That's why I voted for Johnson.

I will vote for any candidate if they support:
Doing away with eminent domain
Abolish the death penalty
Reduce Federal Government Power and create more balance returning power to State's
Single Payer Health Insurance
Support Adoptive services and Planned Parenthood
Free Market
Tax reform
Support the environment. Utilize tax breaks and incentives to motivate individuals/bussinesses to keep environment clean. Partner with charities to assist in maintence of parks.
Expand and protect open land.
Open borders with immigration reform and general quota on how many individuals can immigrate into the U.S. a year.
Accepting of refugees.
Less involvement in global affairs unless need be. Focus on protecting the border. More humanitarian missions and clandestine operations.
Increase funding to public affordable housing work to make housing market competitive to lower prices.
Legalize marijuana.
End Government subsidies.
End lobbying in the Government.
Less red tape with FDA.
End patents on medical and pharmaceutical item's.
Vouchers for childcare.
Universal Healthcare for military service members.
End federal financial aid. Reform college loans to low flat interest rates. Expand length of repayment. Deducting monet from paycheck and adjust based off income. Put on hold when unemployed with no interest acquired.
So on and so forth.

It's absurd to speculate who's running for President in 2020 at this point. Both parties could have an almost totally unknown person run and win.

Wasn't it Bill Maher and his friends who laughed their butts off when Coulter said Donald Trump had the best chance to win?

Well, it's good to see him coming around.

Just pass a HC reform bill that the left would enjoy, and it would be a done deal!

Hell could also freeze over! lol

Evangelicals love him. Rural Americans love him. I don't see that changing unless there is some kind of unexpected bombshell. Whether or not Trump is re-elected will depend on Democratic turnout. Will people who stayed home or who voted for Johnson/Stein in 2016 vote Democrat in 2020? If so, Trump is out. If we have the same turnout, Trump will be re-elected.
