How will Trump leave the White House?

How do you think Trump will leave the White House?

A) He will be impeached and convicted by Senate
B) He will resign after a scandal
C) He will lose 2020 reelection
D) He will choose not to run in 2020
E) He will serve two full terms until 2024

If I were betting money I would bet he will run and lose in 2020. But I wouldn’t be a lot.

I am not completely decided, but I am leaning to Trump being a one term President.

A few other things need to happen for that to be realized of course, mainly the quality of whoever is on the Democrat ticket, but I am not sure he can weather much more of this given his attacking nature, love affair with Twitter, and polarizing attitudes.

I tend to agree but see the Republicans challenging Trump in the primary as the best solution to get him out of office. The Democrats are just out of touch enough to run Hillary agian

I'm very torn between C and D.

If he runs for re-election, at this point he'll lose. Probably badly. But at this point I'm not even sure he'll run again, especially if he thinks he'll lose. His ego is too fragile.

I am not sure Republicans can pull this off, the base that elected Trump still needs to be behind whoever Republicans put up. Unsure any of the lot that tried in 2016 have a shot in 2020.

At this point I think it will come down to a moderate liberal, someone more center leaning to capture just enough of what Obama tapped into as well as the larger pool of Independents who are looking for someone not so extreme left or right. According to Gallup, this group is back up around the 46% to 48% range.

This may be a tough one given what happened in 2016 with the shenanigans that got Hillary past Sanders (not that either one of them were all that moderate anyway.)

Dunno my friend, might be a bit too early for this prediction.

I didn't think he'd win the first time so I'm not going to bother figuring it out this time. The only thing I'll bet on is that he's not going to be removed from office before his 4 years are up. I don't have an issue with most of his policies but as a person, he's pretty bad.

I'm torn between A and B.

I expect that Mueller's case will be the worst scandal in American political history. If that is the case I think Trump will most likely be forced to resign. If Mueller's case isn't overwhelming, the Dems will impeach Trump and the Senate will hold a trial that will have Americans glued to their TV. Presented with the evidence, the general public will overwhelmingly want Trump impeached and enough GOP members will cut their loses and impeach him.

That's my pick as well. The GOP, in an effort to repair their shameful party will run an establishment person, like Romney against him. That'll split the GOP vote and he'll lose. Much like what happened to Carter when Ted Kennedy ran against him.
