Sanders: Trump will be a one-term president
The Hill ^ | April 12, 2017 | Brooke Seipel

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I) on Wednesday said he doesn't believe President Trump will win a second term as president.

"In terms of the first three months in office, Donald Trump is the least popular president in the history of polling," Sanders told The Associated Press while speaking in New York. "I do not believe that if Trump continues these policies that he's going to be reelected. Nor do I think that the Republicans are going to do well in 2018."

Sanders, who is planning to launch a cross-country tour with Democratic National Committee chair Tom Perez next week, said a more progressive movement is underway that will hurt Republicans' electoral chances.

"The momentum right now is with the progressive movement in this country," Sanders said. "And I think the Republicans are on the defensive and will be on the defensive increasingly."

Sanders pointed to Tuesday's special election in Kansas, in which the Republican candidate narrowly won the House seat vacated by now-CIA Director Mike Pompeo in a deep-red district that Trump won overwhelmingly.

"The Republicans had to spend money like crazy at the end to beat him," Sanders said. "I think that's a very good omen for the future."

Republican candidate Ron Estes defeated civil rights attorney James Thompson (D) Tuesday, overcoming a surprisingly tough challenge and denying Democrats a major upset.

Well that seems somewhat better than a no term president, or a couple of months president or a half a term president.

Socialists are typically correct in their predictions.

“The momentum right now is with the progressive movement in this country,” Sanders said.

It really takes a special kind of idiocy or self-delusion to say something like that. I can safely assume that he said just a few months ago that Trump would never be president.

Hey Sanders, STFU. Elections have consequences, and you weren’t elected. You got beat by a loser, namely Hillary. So you’re a bigger loser than Hillary! The people have spoken and they don’t want a commie in charge.

"I do not believe that if Trump continues these policies that he's going to be reelected.

Nonsense - if he keeps his 2016 base happy, he wins in 2020.

Sanders pointed to Tuesday's special election in Kansas, in which the Republican candidate narrowly won the House seat vacated by now-CIA Director Mike Pompeo in a deep-red district that Trump won overwhelmingly.

So Trump has no coattails when he's not running. How unusual.

...

The same polls that predicted a big win for Mrs. Clinton.

I’m afraid it’s true. There seems to be no stopping the worldwide statist movement. Nothing stops them-— be it truth, or elections, or military defeats. They never stop-—American progressives, Islamists, globalists, the Deep State, the unions, the corporatists, or the worldwide banking consortium.

They will never give up. Trump has already been corrupted. I’ve given up on him.

After Trump and the Pubbies push through Voter ID, remove the dead from the voter rolls, send illegals packing, and make America great again, you ‘rats will never win another election, Bernie.
