Blacks are walking away from the Democratic party at an astonishing pace. Hispanics aren't far behind. Independents are choosing Trump as well. And the Republicans who crossed over to support Hillary in 2016 are back and will vote for Trump in 2020.
When you add it up you don't just get Trump elected for 4 more years. You get the greatest Presidential landslide victory since 1936.
Trump's apt to start his second term with a strong mandate. It is notable that this is the opposite of how Obama started his seond term.
Plus there is a reasonable possibility that Republicans will have the majority of both the House and Senate.
If this comes to be, the question is what will Trump and Congress do with both a mandate and control of Congress?
Trump made many promises during his 2016 campaign. He's done a remarkable job at keeping them. So much so that the popular catch phrase, "Promises made. Promises kept," is often used to describe Trump's success.
As the calendar turns over and we start 2020 the Democrats had hoped Trump and the country would be concerned with and distracted by Trump's impeachment. That plan has backfired on Democrats and will even contribute to Trump's victory. Here is a quote by Trump the night that the House voted.
"IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE AN IMPEACHMENT."Trump is going to hit 2020 with full determination to get relected. He will also be campaigning hard to win seats in the House and keep the Senate. Every Republican Congressperson running in 2020 wants to be seen with Trump at a rally in their state.
6'3" DONALD J TRUMP REMINDS ME OF THE 5'10" TEDDY ROOSEVELT IN THE SENSE THAT BOTH SEEM BIGGER THAN LIFE.Trump leads. He dreams big He makes big bold promises.
Trump paints a picture of the future he intends to lead us to. He drives that vision into our head by repeating a phrase he chooses over & over and over again, like a broken record.
So what does Trump stand to accomplish in his second term? Here are my TOP TEN TRUMP TO-DO'S:
1. More Federal Judges. Several more District Courts will flip to Conservative majority.
2. At least one more Conservative Supreme Court appointment.
3. Immigration Reform and completion of the Border Wall. Resolution of DACA including a path to citizenship for most. At the same time more illegal aliens with violent offenses are deported. As the number of undocumented and illegal aliens goes down it will be offset by an increase in the number of legal documented tax paying immigrants goes up.
4. Better Mental Health policies and funding for new mental health and drug rehabilitation facilities.
5. Further changes on taxes. Closing loopholes while decreasing rates and making his previous changes permanent.
6. The Builder in Trump will shine biggly! We are going to get a ton of Infrastructure investment including major a improvement to our electric grid, upgrades related to aviation, and focus on big needed repairs to bridges, waste & water, etc. These improvements are going to go a long way in creating cleaner air and water as well as reducing greenhouse gases.
Trump wants to say he REBUILT America!7. A dramatic new Middle East peace plan that works! This is truly the biggest deal ever. Trump wants it bad! He is gonna get it and he is going to go down in history for it.
8. Tort reform and strong laws against slander and false reporting. Fake news needs to clean up it's act.
9. Voter registration and identification to clean up roles and reduce fraud.
10. Major improvements in military readiness combined with new strategic and tactical defense methods. Lots of change and rebalancing by the Pentagon. With NATO nations investing more there will be greater reason for joint training. NATO allies will take a larger share of the expense and oversight of US Foreign bases.
(If I had my wish, I'd also like to see the "Expulsion," or at least the "Censure and Reprimand" of Nadler, Schiff and Pelosi who truly abused their power, as well as Ilhan Omar amd Rashida Tlaib for remarks unwitting for a Congressperson.)Trump accomplished an amazing amount in his first term, while swimming upstream against a difficult current. It is exciting to think of what he can accomplish with the current going his way!
TRUMP DID WHAT HE PROMISED IN HIS FIRST TERM. HE NEVER QUITS! HIS MOST SUCCESSFUL TERM IS JUST AHEAD.
