2. I do not understand how anyone would worry about a future Trump Presidency.

He ran this time as the most powerful man in the world. He was able to milk the press, have rallies on the government dime, manipulate the news with his craziness, and still couldn't win. Even if he was not an historic loser, he is old, he is sedentary, he eats garbage and he is obese. I would like to see what an actuary would think about his chances of being physically able to run for anything in four years. And besides all that, do you really think the Republican leadership will want him back after getting rid of him this time? They will find a newer, cleaner, sharper, wittier Fascist to run next time.

When Trump walks away from the White House in January, he walks out of power, for good.
