It’s 2020, four years from now. The campaign is under way to succeed the president, who is retiring after a single wretched term. Voters are angrier than ever—at politicians, at compromisers, at the establishment. Congress and the White House seem incapable of working together on anything, even when their interests align. With lawmaking at a standstill, the president’s use of executive orders and regulatory discretion has reached a level that Congress views as dictatorial—not that Congress can do anything about it, except file lawsuits that the divided Supreme Court, its three vacancies unfilled, has been unable to resolve.

After reading the first paragraph I am inclined to not read anymore, because it is all conjecture based on the writer's fantasies. When you start out with utter rubbish, how can one expect it to become serious at all?

Presidents don’t “retire” after one term, no matter how badly things are going. The last elected President to do so was Rutherford Hayes.
