Its not about a failure. It is about who is financing his property with billions while he is making foreign policy directions as part of the white house.

To those guys, it is about the failure. They're explicitly saying that because one project failed, that means he's incompetent to make executive decisions.

I have always said they should all have had to separate themselves from family business.

But they haven't. History will not be kind to Trump and his family nor to his supporters when everything comes out, particularly regarding emoluments.

100%, and investigate the Biden's while they are at it. Double check that Trump's kids are on the up and up as well. Which one of them was bragging about how many Russians own property in their properties again?

Right, they haven't, and in my opinion, they deserve criticism for that. I don't think he deserves to be removed form office for it, but it's one more thing to put into the "con" column. He has pros, he has cons.

What's going to happen if he gets re elected? 4 more years of temper tantrums?

Nikki Haley is looking formidable for 2024, with maybe Tom Cotton as the VP (honors graduate of Harvard and Harvard law, Army lieutenant with combat experience). Who are the dems going to run? AOC? Bernie Sanders again? They need some help developing their bench strength.

He is incompetent, ever action he has Taken on His own . Fails , China. Korea Syria Ukraine, getting involved in war crime trials . Trump thinks having the authority or the perceived authority , he can make decisions that cant be questioned and are 100% perfect. But he makes these calls in his best interest not the county's

And sells America 1st but its a bait and switches it to Trump 1st

If he keeps acting like a petulant bitch, then yes, unfortunately. That is likely. He will have less filter, but a significant governor on that will be that he will not have another election over his head, and he will start to lose support from the right in both houses as they start looking at their own 2022 and 2024 reelections.

Odds are, there will be a recession in the short-term, likely between 2020 and 2024; that rarely bodes well for the party in power.

That's very true. It's also telling, that that's the best hope for the Democratic party.

I think you're spot on, we are overdue for a modest recession (nothing like what happened in 2008). I have 40% of my IRA in cash, waiting for that to happen, then I'll jump back in.
