Narrative: If you believe an Associated Press report published overnight — and you shouldn’t — rank-and-file Republicans are suddenly so worried about POTUS Donald Trump’s ‘legal troubles’ they fear he may not win reelection in 2020.

Under the headline, “Republicans beginning to worry about Trump re-election,” The Associated Press reported:

U.S. President Donald Trump’s intensifying legal troubles are unnerving some of his fellow Republicans. Despite his brash stance, they believe the turmoil has left him increasingly vulnerable as he gears up for what is sure to be a nasty fight for re-election.

Trump, ever confident of his ability to bend story lines to his will, mocks the investigations into his conduct as candidate and president as a “witch hunt” and insists he will survive the threats.

The only thing I am concerned about the Trump re-election, is that we can’t do it RIGHT NOW, but 2020 is soon enough, thank you.

Given we have an electorate which is brainwashed to the extreme and which has demonstrated just how much it is in the disastrous Mid-term election, only an idiot would not be concerned

They never said Obama was in trouble. Great example of fair and unbiased reporting there.

Fake news.

This is all that is needed for the rest of the MSM to recite tonight that “....it is being reported that....” and then speculate (as if factual) that GOP voters everywhere are dumping Trump in droves.

Maybe they are consulting with Jeff Flake or George (Kellyanne) Conway, both of whom may or may not have their own opinions about this president.

I don’t consider this news at all but that is no reason to not worry given this electorate’s idiocy. We can’t depend on the Electoral College saving our asses next time.

After watching all the cheating in this last election and all the constant negative propaganda, including Fox, we have every reason to be concerned

Replace Trump with Bush and you had the same thing when Bush was president; same sort of slanderous hate.
