Purge: Trump Plans for 2020
January 28, 2017
Donald Trump in an interview with The Washington Post on Wednesday said he was already planning to run for reelection in 2020 and had his slogan ready to go: “Keep America Great.”
“Are you ready?” Trump asked the Post. “‘Keep America Great,’ exclamation point. Get me my lawyer!” In a recording accompanying the story, the president-elect can then be heard talking to someone in his office, telling them to trademark the new slogan.
Obviously, it is a continuation of the 2016 slogan, “Make America Great Again,” but where have we heard that new one before…? Oh, yeah, a horror film
“Keep America Great” is the same tagline used for 2016’s The Purge: Election Year, the third film in the series set in a dystopian future in which all crime is legalized for 12 hours a year.

Pride (over-confidence) comes before the fall.

Such pride and over-confidence come before the fall.

If you’re not out there advocating for hand counted paper ballots instead of voting machines, you’re just asking for more Trump and GOP in 2020.
And if the corrupt corporate Dem’s haven’t learned their lesson and decide to run another multimillionaire flush with Wall St., BigOil, BigPharma, &c. cash, then I’m certainly not going to vote Democrat in 2020. Bill Clinton and Obama pulled off a clever, but limited trick where they were able to have their cake and eat it too: They took loads of corporate cash and became servants to the donor class whilst still maintaining the facade that they were somehow liberal, fighting for the working class, often doing so through social issues that didn’t conflict with the destruction of the middle class for the sake of the elite, economically speaking. And it worked for a while, where people just blindly voted Democrat because that’s what they always did.
However, recently people have become awoke to the trick – that on the economic front there are only two parties: The Republicans (D) and the Ultra-Right-Wing Radical Republicans (R). Running Biden or Cory Booker in 2020 is just asking for more Trump.

At the state level when a Dem runs against a GOP in a red state and does so by pretending they’re a GOP-light candidate, the real GOP always wins.

The transition team is of course rife with climate change deniers.
From The Guardian:
Trump would seem to have more than a few conflicts of interest in this area.

Pretty much everyone on his team at the White House is a climate denier.
