Will Trump win in 2020?

Has anyone changed their mind about Bernie Sanders, and the America he wants to see in the future, since the last election?

I received many great answers to my last question asking if Americans view Canada as a socialist country.

Many Canadians are just as informed about American politics as we are our own - in some cases, due to vast, sometimes disturbing changes (within the current administration in particular), even more so. Our discussions about Trump are no doubt as frequent as your own, with major concerns about the current state and future of the US, and the impact it will have on the world.

I am a huge fan of Bernie Sanders, who I believe is a solid, honest man with great integrity, regardless of whether one agrees with his ideas. Many of us here would love to see him win 2020, but I understand there is still this fear of socialism, which is not to be confused with social democracy, where social programs are in place to protect all of its citizens - not just the very wealthy few.

My gut told me Trump would become president, from the moment I heard his first speech (much to my chagrin). Now, I can't imagine a second term for Trump - my gut tells me no, which I understand is not based in any reality of the possible outcome. What are your thoughts on this now? Will Trump be reelected? Could Bernie win? All the signs of him running again are there.

I feel like he will be re-elected. I really hope that I'm wrong.

Personally, i loathe to discuss this now. Our eyes should be on the midterms, not an election two years away.

That being said, it's all (as always) about turnout and engagement. Who shows up? Historically, republicans do a much better job. Historically, other people don't believe that elections have the consequences they do. Can we change that? The midterms might give us a clue to that, but I think it is too early to say.

There will be no election. He will cancel it. Will Americans accept that? Stay tuned.

Popular vote no electoral college might be a different story we only really know what goes on what the media reports. What goes on behind closed doors could be a different story all depending if the Congress is lead to an idea on how to become more wealthy.

tRump won't win if I can help it, and although I like a lot of what Bernie proposes, I think it's a bridge too far.
