Originally posted by Diable Rouge View PostAlways imagined Trump entered the race just for a reality-TV style experience, rather than out of political conviction, so would probably have lost interest by 2020.

Corollary to this: on another forum, a poster is predicting that Trump may run again in 2024, even following heavy defeat in 2020, given that he would still have such a strong base of support. This seems unlikely for many reasons, the most important being having to constantly explain why he lost to Biden.

Yeah. I believe that in December, even if he's lost horribly, he'll believe that he'll Grover Cleveland it up. He'll even keep having big rallies where he freezes people to death in Nebraska. Because he loves his rallies. But over the course of a few months when his crowds dwindle and he ends up in all kinds of judicial chaos in NY, it would eventually become apparent that it wouldn't work. A big defeat would mean that all his supporters and enablers in the Republican party would rapidly be "Oh, I was always again Trump - you can see it in my speeches" or "Trump? I don't remember that guy." The same way the Tea Partiers were with GWB.

Trump will have fulfilled his role for the GOP, he's got two SC judges on and kept the Democrats out for four years. No need for him any more.
However, I genuinely think that Hillary would be losing if she was running in 2020. The problems that led to Trump wouldn't have gone away. (I'm not convinced that Biden will fix them either. It's the Centrist Way.)
