If President Donald J. Trump (PDJT) keeps up with the winning, he’ll be the toughest presidential act to follow since George Washington. Like General Washington, PDJT didn’t come up through party ranks and didn’t owe anything to anyone when he took the oath of office. Being without political baggage and with incredible wealth before assuming office freaks out the Swamp PDJT promised to drain. Who today could possibly step up and replace him in few years? I’m not saying such a man or woman doesn’t exist. Maybe one or more are out there. If there is, and considering the rabid media, perhaps it’s best we don’t know who it is six years out from 2024.
Of one thing I am sure: the Trump Base and therefore the nation will not accept a John McCain, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, or Mitt Romney establishment sort of candidate. We are over it. After decades of Lucy Republicans pulling the football, no bet-hedging professional politician will have a chance.
What if another PDJT isn’t ready to go in 2024? The good, decent, and noble George H.W. Bush was an establishment man incapable of continuing the Reagan Revolution. By 1992, President Bush was worn out after a lifetime of honorable service to his nation since WWII. He didn’t want the presidency. A nobody governor with an insufferable wife were happy to take it.
Has PDJT set the bar too high? No. PDJT rediscovered that looking out for America at home and abroad is not only okay but also conducive to electoral victory. Enormous good is certain when personal and societal interests coincide in a talented and driven man. After eight years of despotic rule by a global citizen, PDJT simply reestablished the character traits expected in the Framers’ President.

No worries...We will be repealing the 22nd Amendment.
Bring this guy on as VP for Trump’s next term:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duncan_D._Hunter
Nope. Not kidding at all.
Ronald Reagan’s biggest mistake...George Bush...Trump needs to find someone like him for VP in 2020....someone who has been draining the swamp...
The only lasting legacies the Bushes have are Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. And a busted up ME I guess.
Expect a single project of magnitude, complexity, and cost vastly exceeding that of the famous Manhattan Project.
It will be to get the USA ready for the imminent ice age
As the Sun has made no Sunspots since 2018.
Life becomes short, cold and brutal.
Bow hunting skills are premium.
The guy in the picture took on a polar bear with a simple bow and six arrows. He only needed half the arrows. If the photo is to be believed.
Maybe if we all eat a lot of beef and beans, and drive only pick-ups and SUVs, we can squeak through the 21st century solar minimum.
In general we should seek to just create and maintain the wealthiest possible nation, because deep reserves of wealth and resources will make us more resilient to whatever calamity may come along. Our infrastructure should be vastly better developed and better thought out than presently. Vastly.
We have a long ways to go, ice age or not.
Don’t forget Alito was only after we stopped Jorge’s attempt at forcing another RINO (Harriet Meyers) on America.
Yeah. Fair point. Alito was his attempt at bringing the base back.
I missed my flight...
If he’s anything like his father (who I got behind for president back in the 90s), he’d be an ideal VP candidate.
My vote goes for Mike Pompeo to succeed Trump...In just a short time he has done a lot for this country under Trump and I firmly believe he would make a great President as well!,,,
I’ve been saying this since he worked on the Secure Fence Act back in 2006. Too bad he’s not as outspoken as Jim Jordan, Mark Meadows, Devin Nunes, and other conservatives.
Bush Sr. was and is CIA slime.”If the American people ever found out What we did they’d chase us down the street and lynch us.”
