At this point in time I see no one that can even touch Trump at the polls on the democrats side. Maybe someone will emerge, but the run for POTUS will start as soon as the mid term elections are over in November 2018 (this year)

The only competition Trump has for POTUS is in his own party which includes the same people that ran last time which are all jockeying for that chance even as we speak.

Trump will be Trump and overcome these obstacles to be the winner in 2020 ... yes you can quote me on this lol

Warning I have been wrong before about McCain and Obama, but we learn from our mistakes.

Currently the Dems have no one of interest to run against Trump. Winfrey? Not interested and sorry, kind of laughable. Joe Biden maybe. Bernie Williams? Man sits in a million dollar home talking socialism. Something wrong with that picture.

Vienna I am surprised that you would suggest such a thing. I always thought you were the kinder, gentler type. Don't you realize the heartache and chaos this kind of thing would cause. Think about the mental well being of the country's progressive elites. These people are already on the edge of insanity and this kind of action by Trump would push them over it. Rachel Maddow would probably have to be institutionalized permanently. Donny Deutsch would probably have a stroke on the air and that would traumatize early morning TV watchers from Washington to New York. Our beloved late night comics would be rendered speechless and hurt themselves trying to mime their routines with the appropriate outrage. CNN would repeat the phrase 'obstruction of justice' so many times that it would lose all meaning. Society would breakdown. Keep this kinda thing under wraps. After all we have a duty to protect the weak and emotionally unstable. It's the least we can do.

Why has the POTUS so much to say about every 'ally' he has met in recent days/weeks?

don't think one could summarize it better...

What I am waiting for is now that McCain gets marked as 'liberal', 'mainstream' or probably be part of the 'establishment'.

I think that this whole discussion is going so well, because capitalism reaches its limits and that this representative (Trump) as president has always been a failure in the economy; it is only a mouthpiece for multilateral corporations.

So he just wants to uphold the standard of living for himself as well as for his family, which he / she simply took away from the hard-working sections of the population.

I remember such great domestic presidents as "Teddy" Roosevelt, who vigorously opposed the barbarism of profiteering, as well as of Standart Oil and similar societies.

Trump is just a symptom - he is the idiotic agent of capitalist interests.

Well the GOP seems to doing a very fine job of protecting "the weak and emotionally unstable", particularly since he is their leader...

We are all just cheated and have to live with it.

So with tomatoes, onions and garlic this breakfast would taste, unfortunately I would have to beat at least 6 eggs with such a small brain to make the portions decent for such a small snack with my girlfriend in the morning.
