Where will Trump be two years from now?

Where will Trump be two years from now?

I suppose the Ecuadorian embassy is out now that they expect their guests to clean up after themselves.
 
I do so hope Mueller is just waiting for the new Congress to settle in before he releases that report.
 
I picked voted out, but it's probably about 50/50 between that and reelected.

He should be impeached and/or in prison, but of course that isn't going to happen.

Dead is too unpredictable. Trump is old, and doesn't look in good health. The stress of the Presidency can finish a man off, but honestly I doubt Trump finds being President particularly stressful most of the time. Or at least, no more than his life before it.

He is probably far more stressed about having his tax returns made public which would expose he is not a billionaire at all. He is also probably stressed at the prospect of his base finally realising he is a lazy, lying con-artist and grifter. Because they will TURN so hard! ;) And then who will he have to sell his shonky steaks and real estate academies to!
 
I cannot believe that this man will not die of a stroke before the end of his term.
 
There's no sense in playing the denial game with wishful thinking....

The world will be stuck with Conald Twittler for another six years.

The only glimmer of hope is that Mueller will mop the floor with him. But let's face it, the odds are stacked against Mueller from accomplishing any criminal charges against a sitting president. And I have zero faith in the American people to pull their collective heads out of their asses.

Thus, Trump will be reelected in 2020.
 
I really don't see a point on betting on impeachment. If it looks like Mueller is about to drop a huge bombshell, Stupid will fire him and declare the whole thing "Super duper classified" (yes, he will invent that specific version). Even if the really damning stuff leaks out and has Stupid on tape agreeing to work with a foreign state, adjusting policy, and then firing investigators to cover it up, and the HoR votes to impeach, the Republicans in the senate will not remove him from office. They are either compromised themselves, too scared of the domestic terrorists in the base, or both. No matter how tough they might talk about rule of law, they will get in line

A failed impeachment attempt will only play out in the media as typical partisan squabbling. It may actually help his re-election bid.
 
As of today: 75/25 re-elected/voted out.

His RCP average approval held in the low 40s over 2018 which is about average for presidents and currently bodes well for his re-election.

I'm guessing resigned just before his term is up, having secured a promise of pardon from President-to-be Pence.

It would be funny if Mueller actually nails Pence first and the Senate Republicans are too ashamed to confirm Jared as VP. Can a sitting VP be indicted?
 
I don't really see "Planet X" as a joke response as fleeing to exile to evade jail seems like a remote possibility. Hiding Trump in Russia, safe from extradition, could be one last poke in the eye to America from Putin.
 
See, if he had any sort of self-awareness whatsoever, he would blanket pardon all of his children including Jared and then immediately resign.

But that would require him to be able to understand basic human decency and that's just never going to happen.

It isn't even clear that a sitting president can't be indicted. Nothing in the Constitution states anything about this. I see no reason why a VP couldn't be.

Legal experts are divided on that question. The Supreme Court has never ruled on whether the president can be indicted or whether the president can be subpoenaed for testimony.

The Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel, which provides legal advice and guidance to executive branch agencies, has maintained that a sitting president cannot be indicted. Two Justice Department reports, one in 1973 and one in 2000, came to the same conclusion.

I predict that if the Mueller Report exposes truly egregious criminal wrongdoing, there will be a challenge to the DOJ's opinion. I also think this is exactly why Trump nominated Kavanaugh who made known his opposition to indicting a sitting president.
