I know I know.....but where do we go if President Trump decides to not run again

I have to laugh when I hear moronic talking heads on TV or in print talk about how easy the God Emperor will be to defeat in 2020. How he is demented and sick and will never complete his term. Well here is something to think about:


Both of these guys are seventy one. Think about that one.

The economy is humming along. Here is an interesting fact. Less educated workers are seeing the biggest increase in their salaries. Both in take home because of the tax cuts and in higher salaries because they don't have to compete with illegals. This effects not just the white working class but blacks and Hispanics as well.  Who do you think a black factory worker is going to support. President Trump with his swaggering ways and the raises in his paycheck or Elizabeth Warren or some other old white lady. Or a weeping homo like Cory Booker. Somehow I think he can get a big slice of the black vote. The black male vote. Maybe not anywhere close to 50%, but if he gets close to 25% it flips a whole bunch of states.


Still and all I predict he will not run for reelection. I think he will leave such a solid record of achievement that he would step down and not worry about it secure that his place in history is solid despite what the liars in the media say. Especially if he gets the Wall completed or at least mostly completed. He can retire at the top of his game. The way he did from the Celebrity Apprentice. He can turn it over to the next generation.

But who will be his successor?

Vice President Pence has the inside track of course. But he is not exactly a political dynamo. The contrast of his more phlegmatic personality does have its appeal but I think that it will go in a different direction.

I think the next President will be  Tom Cotton.

I have been a supporter of Senator Cotton for a while. He is the polar opposite of pussies like Ben Sasse and Lady Lindsey Graham. In fact he just bitch slapped Lady Graham. President Trump had Senator Cotton and Congressman Goodlatte in the meeting and has said there is no deal unless they sign on. Sign on to border enforcement, E-Verify and the Wall. Otherwise no deal. Tom Cotton is  President Trumps natural heir. On Immigration. On defense matters. On standing up to the Democrats and bitch slapping the media and the cucks like Lady Graham. Here is what Senator Cotton had to say about Lady Graham after he tried to diss him by comparing him to immigration hawk Steve King:

"The difference between Steve King and Lindsey Graham is that Steve King can actually win an election in Iowa.
Look, we had an election in 2016. Immigration was a major issue there and the American people and especially Republican primary voters made it clear that they wanted Donald Trump’s vision of immigration policy, not Lindsey Graham’s. He didn’t make it to the starting line and he didn’t even make it off the kiddie table in the debates."
That is going to leave a mark.

I think President Trump is going to retire and throw his support to Tom Cotton. Just one man's opinion.

If you're looking for a Trump vibe, Tillerson might be the next Trump. Tillerson has no political experience but lots of money and a deep manly voice. I don't think anyone knows his positions on anything and that's always a plus. I don't know much about him, but I wouldn't want to get on his bad side. He's more like Trump than either Pence or Cotton.

A lot of people have been touting Tom Cotton, who has really gotten under Chuckie Schumer's skin. Some say it's why the negotiations broke off. Cotton wouldn't put up with any of Chuckie's (or Grahamnesty's) nonsense.

FWIW, unless he's not feeling well, I think he will go for the second term. The guy wants to give something back to the country that gave him everything (3 luscious wives included). If he sees stuff undone, like packing SCUS with real Americans, I think he'll go for it.

Somehow I think he can get a big slice of the black vote. The black male vote. Maybe not anywhere close to 50%, but if he gets close to 25% it flips a whole bunch of states.

Black unemployment is at its lowest ever. There's money going into the pockets of the schmucks, regardless of color. So you may have something there.

Who followed Andrew Jackson? Someone forgettable. Trump will be hard to top.

One eats a diet of whatever he wants to eat. The other eats a diet that emaciates the shit out of you and makes you look like a pink ghoul. You decide which one I'm talking about.
