Trump won't finish his term, he'll either quit or die. The Democrats will win in 2020, probably with Gillibrand, who will run to the left but not do shit as president because the real victory was electing a woman and there's nothing left to do.

That is the thing that many of his supporters failed to see. Trump the businessman is a free trader. He believes in it and he has profited from it as a businessman. For him to practice protectionism would run counter to his own interests business wise. He never had any intention of implementing such practices and it was illustrated the second he added relics from the Reagan era to his economic team.

It will be deja vu in 20 also. Cable News and News in general is a for profit business lest anyone forget and Trump is big box office. It will be difficult for anyone to gain traction with non stop coverage of him being the order of the day. Doesn't matter if it liberal or conservative stations either.

How he is covered will differ but he will still be the headliner regardless of station.

_________________

It is estimated that his cable news call-ins and coverage were equal to $2 billion in paid advertising during the primary.

Without that exposure, he doesn't crack 5% in the primary. Cable news pushed him and Hillary's campaign told their friends in the media to promote him as well! Heck, you really can blame Hillary for giving us Trump.

The media should have Ron Paul'd his ass, but they played themselves.

How many decades/centuries worth of news and marketing experience could not see they were helping Trump?

Embarrassing.

Wait, this shit isn't gonna end even in his second term? Hell, he might get an amendment passed and win a third.

Yeah, CNN gave him so much coverage ever since the day he announced his bid on that ship...

I don't think she has a chance in hell, especially if the economy is strong, but let's face it . . . she's a dish.

Money > Their Trump Hatred

What are you talking about? He is already embracing protectionism more than any president has for over 30 years. He put tariffs on China, for Christ sake.

This is a YUGE part of it. The networks all kept crying about him not taking questions and lying when he did and yet several times a day "and we now go LIVE to Donald Trump telling fairy tales that we will refuse to fact check"
Joe and Mika I think backed off when they realized the thought of Trump as POTUS outweighed their JORR level blood hatred of the Clintons.

Even now. 2 years into this shit. Flip over to the NBC News Politics page. Top line story is about Rudy saying things will be over in September..... Like Rudy is a spokesman for Mueller or has a single honest bone in his body. They are doing it to themselves.

Anybody want to tell him......

They'll run on "we're not Trump" anyway, won't they.

You could trace the current platform of the democrats right back to Obama saying Trayvon could've been his son. This is very much his creation.

It is definitely true that the democrats wanted Trump to disrupt the Republicans and did not realize until it was too late that they had inadvertently sewed the seeds of their own demise.

Clinton threatened to place Tariffs on Japan too yet he was an ardent free trader.

Where is the big repeal of NAFTA that was promised? That is what i'm talking about. If he does that then I will know he means business.

Individualized tariff bills aren't anything revelatory. He promised to go after NAFTA on day one and hasn't done jack.

they'll run on "white people and men need to sit down and listen"

I find it odd that a political party which polls at 90% white nationally is the one complaining about identity politics. Is this some sort of twisted logic or what?

Prior to the election many a Republican would pontificate about how the Republicans could no longer be the party of "white men" if they hoped to win the Presidency. Trump wins the Presidency and bang that theory goes out the window.

_________________

I would have thought that to be true. The democrats have made it very clear white straight men are not welcome or considered and in some ways extends to white women. It's not identity politics people are complaining about, it's the identity itself.

I say this as a white, straight, cisgendered, stay at home, middle class, feminist that neither side has given a shit about. Both parties suck now and for all the same reasons.

Nah, only one party really sucks. Republicans aren't perfect but when they are opposed to the total destruction of a 2500 year civilization that has done absolutely impossible things, well...their flaws dont seem to matter much in perspective of the big picture.

Brother, everything you post about politics or culture is so parallel to white nationalist ideals it's kind of suspect.

_________________

I think this is an exaggeration. It may seem that way when the Republican Party is overwhelmingly the party of straight white men, but the Democrats are not exactly hostile to them. When you look at their gameplan for taking back Congress (the infamous road through Panera Bread), it's based on a lot of small business owners and Iraq veterans -- groups you would expect to be on the other team but Actually Aren't -- and the majority of them are straight white males. We joke about all left-of-center politics being taken over by militant black lesbians, but that's clearly not really happening.

Keep an eye on New York, where you can expect the party leadership to consolidate power behind straight white male Andrew Cuomo and ratfuck his opponent, white lesbian Cynthia Nixon.
