This is frightening, yet historically accurate. Presidents who run for second terms tend to get reelected.

The other thing - and this is something Hillary Haters ignore - is that after a 2-term Presidency, voters tend to turn to the other party.

People who tell you that it was Al Gore’s or Hillary Clinton’s race to lose, that their election was the more likely result but they screwed it up by not being good enough are full of shit. Or lying.

I do think people are generally underestimating the possibility that the Trump presidency will last another 7 years. https://t.co/98xwW5VkF1
