Trump has been in office for just over two years – for me, it feels like he has been there for over 20 years.

Democrats are in a vicarious predicament:

They are suffering the consequences of Hillary’s mishaps and complacency

Donald Trump is the consequence of the United States electing its first African American President

Nonetheless, if we get it wrong in 2020, the consequences could be monumental and long lasting

Climate Change
- Tax cuts that aren’t working out for the middle class and the poor
- Our international reputation
- Russia’s new competitive advantage
- China tariffs conflated with China’s move to become the new World Tech leader
- Race polarization

The thing that could make the 2020 election very interesting is the X Factor, Billionaire Howard Shultz
