Does anyone else think Ben Sasse might challenge Trump in 2020?

alright well your inability to respond with rational responses is noted.

you are not conpletely without hope, you know. there’s lots of anger out there

Are you suggesting that a second defeat of the hag witch lib mob Crooked Hillary at the hands of Donald would not be epic? Were we not just agreeing that it would be the most fun thing politically in probably the history of ever?

I doubt your loyalty to the cause, sir.

Now I really doubt your Trumpism cred. Donald would never lose to the hag witch lib mob Queen. He beat her like a rented mule in 2016, and would again in 2020.

I don’t know about Sasse, but keep your eye on Nikki Haley.

Not really. At the moment I don’t really like too many of the viable candidates on either side. I like our lt. Governor Gavin Newsom on the Democratic side but he’ll still be too inexperienced by 2020

I don’t see anyone mustering the courage to primary Donald - the risk of backlash from the base will dissuade the wannabees.

I agree there’s not much on the left, either. Donald picked a good time to be president - running against a candidate as polarizing and disliked as himself, and soon to run against a likely no name.

Who knows? Stranger things have happened.

ok fair enough

he’s extremely hard left you know right?

electable on national level?

By 2024 if Trump gets 4 more years? Yes, if that happens the country will turn to the opposite extreme like it so often does and he stands a chance. But electable now/2020? No, not a chance.

can’t say i disagree based on history.

but i am curious what the issues will be

besides “time for a change” which i am sure will be the slogan in 2024 as well as 2020 for that matter

It’s still important to me. I totally see what you did there so I’m not trying to rant at you (just feeding off the post) but I’m sick of the back and forth game of “they did it first so it’s okay for me to ditch my principles”.

Damn I miss John McCain

did you miss him in 2008?

I didn’t vote for him but I also didn’t really have anything against him other than his choice of a running mate. Well that and I also thought he would get us into another war and that Obama would take us the other direction. And yes I was wrong about that aspect of his presidency which is why I voted for Johnson in 2012 (and 2016)

The economy is explosive, businesses are returning to our shores en masse, our military is stronger than it’s ever been, and we are once more feared, respected, and adored abroad. Donald’s popularity is higher than any president at this time in their presidency.

Libs will try to run on a “Donald is mean and rude” platform which has already been shown to be a certain path to failure. Donald will dominate, and the GOP will ride his coattails to utter government dominance.

WuWei · 2018-10-22T00:30:49.683Z

The military is not the strongest it’s ever been.

Blackwolf · 2018-10-22T00:33:28.314Z

Nobody’s more amazing with the military than Donald.
