All the "Trump is finally losing it" posts and opinion pieces are making it sound like it will

be easy to beat Trump. My favorites are the ones where Trump will supposedly resign. We can win but I believe he will scratch and claw til the very end. All this stuff in the MSM, if taken as gospel, will only serve to suppress the vote.

I don’t believe he’ll resign. He’ll go out kicking and screaming and bellowing that the corrupt Dems framed him, because of course he never does anything wrong.

as being impeached. He will make a deal with pence for a pardon and leave the country with his family before they are arrested.
Rethugs may get scared that they will lose in 2020 and ask him to step down for the good of the party

He flails and shrieks and tweets filth until the convention, when finally the GOP nominates Pence instead. (Can that happen? If there aren't enough bound primary delegates to win first ballot?)

He runs as an independent and viciously attacks Pence as a traitor. Splits the GOP vote, destroys Pence as a candidate forever.

DemWhoever wins in a landslide, with long coattails bringing in a blue Senate wave.

Hey, a gal can dream!

he won’t finish his term. I agree that it’s not likely he’ll resign or be removed but there’s more of a possibility now more than ever.

I feel good about our chances in 2020. A president with a 38-42% approval rating can’t win re-election. Dems just need to show up and vote.

Then he was "losing it" when he was caught in the Access Hollywood video

Then he was "losing it"...when he tweeted deceptive numbers about his inauguration..

Trump is always this way.......

when he is supposed to be falling apart because of the impeachment investigation. If Democrats don't stop taking a knife to a gun, he is going to be here for a lot longer.

We can't let up on anything, we must get out the vote, we must have the impeachment process move forward.

If resigns, great, but I doubt the fool's pathology will let him. He wants to be an autocrat like Putin and I am not saying that as hyperbole or as a slight. That nutjob will take whatever power he is given or he can con, steal, lie his way to.

The sob is entirely too health, near as I can tell, to hope he will leave feet first.
