I know that 2020 is a long way off but we already have a crowded Democrat field of candidates vying for that sure thing that they think will happen. No predictions from me yet but Ed Rogers of The Washington Post asks a very good question in this article.
What Trump policies are Democrats running against?

It's a good question.

As the Democratic race for the 2020 presidential nomination gets underway, the contenders are trying to determine how to best distinguish themselves. So far, the only unifying theme among all candidates is that President Donald Trump is unfit and he and his Republican policies must go.

That's pretty thin.

So, the vain, vindictive “enfant terrible” president is doing more than just energizing the Democrats. By fostering bothersome economic prosperity and making foreign policy moves that no one will want to undo, Trump is effectively rendering much of the traditional debate about peace and prosperity off limits to Democrats.

Right now it seems like all they have is to out 'Trump' Trump. Think building a wall and getting Mexico to pay for it was dumb. How about the 'Green New Deal'? Equally absurd.
