Potato head is desparate now and feels cornered. Things are going to get super crazy because

he feels that he MUST win 2020 because SDNY is waiting in the wings to pounce as soon as he is out of office. But he has no wall, immigration policies are falling apart, infrastructure was never begun and healthcare was a dud. SDNY is a bigger threat to him than Mueller ever was, and they have indicated that they might push back on the “cannot indict” thing. Boat is going to get rocky. I feel sorry for asylum seekers.
NYT has article out now about how staff reacts to being asked to do something illegal (Tillerson left and Pompeo is willing to do anything for boss).

Does the SDNY have a statute of limitations? SHRED Apr 2019 #1
Don't know, but I think so. Irishxs Apr 2019 #3
I believe they can write sealed indictments, which are not subject to the statute of limitations Clash City Rocker Apr 2019 #7

I'm afraid that beating him in 2020 will be harder than a lot of people think.

When he ran for office 4 years ago, everything was easy.

Immigration - Easy
Healthcare - Easy
Trade Deficits - Easy
Tax Policy - Easy
Deficit - Easy

Every problem was because we had incompetent people in Washington and he alone could save the day. Over the past 3 years he has found out that everything is not easy. He literally has solved nothing in the past 3 years and made most things worse. He is a rage monster about it. Despite his political posturing and twitter feed he knows what a disaster he has been and he knows he has nothing to run on in 2020.
