Has President Trump ever expressed any interest in a second term?

He’s a “Lebanese Mexican!” Who knew that kind of half-breed existed?

The Lying Left is going to get bit in the ass when the truth comes out about who really conspired with the Russians and leaked classified info a la Hillary.

Can’t wait.

I guess this means they’re finally accepting the reality that Trump’s going to make it through the whole term.

The slimes are ever hopeful. They think if they say it enough times, it will come true. The names listed, Kasich, Sasse and Cotton are what are to be expected, but none would have a chance if they tried. Expect to see Flakes name there too. As far as Pence, the slimes are trying to foster dissent within the Administration. The slimes are one of the most unethical organizations in the US, and that is saying a lot.

I don’t think Cotton would run against Trump. He may be hedging his bets if Trump runs into trouble.

But if they try to remove Trump, there will be about 20 million people in the street. And they will only want to know, from Cotton or anyone else, which side are you on.

I wonder if they actually meant to say "Lebanese"...or if "he" is some kind of transgendered female faggot?

Yeah. Who wouldn’t vote for the NYT’s favorite Republican shadow complex? That’s a real vote getter. Amd let by scum like Kasich and Darth Vader McCain.

During the campaign he referred to his second term.

Trump has fought off a coup and keeps going. I have very little doubt about the President. I’m doubting the integrity of the federal government.

We out here in fly-over country understand this is the last chance we will have to save the nation from Obama style “Fundamental Transformation”.

But it doesn’t seem that the GOPe sees that.

Or they just don’t care as long as the lobbyist money keeps flowing their way for a while longer.

We see many republicans working hand in glove with democrats and the media to sink the Trump administration thinking they, or one of their pals, can replace President Trump in 2020.

The truth is, if republicans do somehow damage President Trump enough to cause him to lose the primary in 2020 they will also be destroying the republican party and guaranteeing another democrat in the White House.

And probably democrat majorities in the senate and house as well.

Another democrat regime in 4 years may not rule forever but it would be long enough to prevent any chance of restoring the Republic.

Fake news, but if it isn’t who cares. This is the same gang of sanctimonious losers that tried to destroy Trump in the 2016 election. They are as clueless as the Rats about why Trump won and why his base continues to back him strongly.

NYT is still sore about losing the election.

They really do need to get over it.

Drudge is pushing a meme that Pence is setting up his own POTUS Campaign, hiring hotshot operatives, etc. All I can say is, Pence does NOT have the chops to be POTUS while the Swamp is still untamed. EVEN IF he could win, the Swamp would completely roll Pence in 6 months or less. However, being a lifelong politician, he’d probably willingly revert to type, and join the RINOs before election day.
