Meh.
If Trump doesn't start climbing out of his golf cart and walking a little more, his old clogged-up fat covered heart may not hold out until 2020 before gives out on him and calls it quits.

One question I have about the article is it addressed Arizona turning more liberal due to the rise in Hispanic voters to the state (which is a growing demographic that tends towards voting liberal), but the article also states "that a good chunk of white voters entering the state are coming in from more liberal California."

Here's my question: Are the white voters from California liberals moving to Arizona for whatever reasons (work, retirement, COL), or are they conservatives leaving California because it's too liberal for them? There's a huge difference.

Again, I think Trump will have a GOP challenger in 2020 in the primary and lose the primaries and not even be in the running for 2020. Depends on if the GOP makes the moves it needs to make to save its party from populist lunatics.

ETA: Republican challenger would be a hoot to have the slogan "Making our Party Great Again" lol

Trump's getting 2 scoops of ice cream to increase the speed of clogging the arteries. Meanwhile, Pence gets a fruit plate instead of ice cream (not even 1 scoop for Pence). Pence wants to remain healthy for his next career move.

His problem is that he can't get Congress to help him since they keep having these verbal skirmishes.
And whose fault is that? President Twitler can't stop tweeting like a high school mean girl.

Not having access to the WSJ article - what are the four red states where this one small policy decision will supposedly hurt Trump three years in the future? Presumably those are Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Florida which featured his smallest winning margins (even though they are more purple than red, for now)? It seems like an odd argument given that there will be so many more events, legislative measures, and personalities over the remainder of his term that cannot be foreseen at this time.

Regarding Arizona, my impression is that migration from California is probably pulling the state towards the left. There is a huge discrepancy in the cost of living and job growth in Arizona has been strong, so many young people from diverse backgrounds have moved across the state line. The influx of senior citizens, many from the Midwest, into retirement communities is a counter-trend that benefits Republicans, particularly since this population votes at very high rates.

Trump is in trouble if Russia doesn't assist in 2020.

He's not any more unpopular than Trump.
