2020 Watch: Trump May Repeat Hillary’s Big Mistake

The 2020 race “is Donald Trump’s to lose,” declares The Week’s Matthew Walther. But his “obsession with relitigating” the Mueller probe, while “understandable and probably justified,” will “do him no favors with the crucial 100,000 or so voters, many of them Democrats, who pushed him to victory” in 2016 in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Nor will the fact that “manufacturing jobs, especially in the auto industry, have continued to disappear in the former two states.” His campaign manager talks of seeking wins elsewhere to make up for Midwest losses. But that strategy, says Walther, “is, to put it bluntly, idiotic.” It would only repeat Hillary Clinton’s 2016 error of trying to flip Georgia and Texas “while ignoring the blue and purple-state voters who eventually defected to Trump.”

In other words, while it was perfectly acceptable -- even morally necessary -- to persecute Trump for spurious reasons, it is useless and vengeful to seek the truth about the roles Hillary and Obama played in that persecution.

Don’t believe it, more BS from the lame steam media.

They are not re-litigating anything. They are starting new investigations into the investigator attemp at a silent coup! t
