This editorial is supposed to refute another editorial arguing that Trump is in good shape to win in 2020, by Doug Sosnik, from Bill Clinton's White House staff. Unfortunately, you have to pay to read that WaPo article, so I have not linked it. I suppose this Bloomberg editorial is arguing the opposite of what Sosnik wrote but I won't pay WaPo.
#1- Yes, the economy might have a downturn at any time. But what would the Dems propose? They would probably present "moral" arguments, while Trump's arguments are based on saving money (and would result in improving the lives of all).
#2- North Korea. Let's see, what have Clinton, GWB, and O done about it?
#3- Dems win the House. Not likely.
#4- Trump might have health problems. Well, I don't see anything serious yet.
#5- Mueller investigation. Starting to lead to Hillary and Podesta.

Who cares or believes whatever Al Hunt has to say?

All incumbents have an edge unless the economy is dog doo (1932, 1980) or perceived to be dog doo even if it’s ok (1992, recession was over well ahead of the vote) unless your name is Harry Truman (1948) in which case a farm recession helped you somehow because voters were retarded gibemdats sucking on the New Deal teat.

I think Obama may have lost the 2nd time around if not for his incumbency, even to Myth.

If the economy is in ok shape in 2020 Trump is more likely than not to win. If’s it’s crappy he’ll probably lose.

As to the other questions the farticle asks

2)A war (in it’s early stages not quagmire stages) would only help an incumbent President

3)”Will Democrats win control of the House next year, and reject a left-wing agenda for the 2020 presidential contest?”

LOL, putting their chances at winning the House aside (not great IMO) I have news for Bloomberg, the progtard base wants free college and single payer, the rat nominee is gonna have to be for that or pretend to be for that, the democrats will be running on a far-left agenda whether the corporate bloomberg wing of the party likes it or not, and that’s good news for Republicans. If they somehow nominated someone unacceptable to their base we’re gonna see the Green party taking 5%+ from them.

4)Wishful thinking? Trump has shown no sign of health problems. Also while he’s a smidge on the portly side calling him “borderline obese” renders the term meaningless, they called the athletic GW Bush fat as well. Most Americans could stand to lose a few or more than a few pounds.

5)No crimes were committed by Trump vis a vis Russia, yawn so boring.

#4- Trump might have health problems . . . I don’t see any signs of that either. Still, President Trump is over age 70, and the job ages people. I consider this the biggest risk America faces.
