Amazing, you have it all figured out, even Trump not running in the 2020 election. Incredible.

Who do ya think Trump supporters should get behind if Trump bails out?

If Trump bails, I would re-enact Fred Astaire’s final scene from “On The Beach.”

I hope he remains politically viable in the general. But if he’s looking like a no-hoper, my guess is that he’ll bail out before it’s too late, if only to avoid being persecuted by an incoming Democratic administration. GOP voters need to get behind the GOP standard bearer, whether Trump or someone else. But it wasn’t just traditional GOP voters who dragged Trump across the finish line in 2016.

I hope the non-traditional voters who pulled the lever for Trump will re-up in 2020, despite the lack of a wall. Like it or not, though, voters do remember campaign promises. Remember “read my lips”? Trump not only promised to build a wall - he promised that Mexico would pay for it. I doubt anyone will sweat the fact that Mexico won’t actually be writing a check directly. But the lack of a wall is likely to be a real sore point.
