WSJ Editorial: "The Trump Referendum"

Wall Street Journal

President Trump may soon need a new nickname for “Sleepy Joe” Biden. How does President-elect sound? On present trend that’s exactly what Mr. Biden will be on Nov. 4, as Mr. Trump heads for what could be an historic repudiation that would take the Republican Senate down with him.

Mr. Trump refuses to acknowledge what every poll now says is true: His approval rating has fallen to the 40% or below that is George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter territory. They’re the last two Presidents to be denied a second term.

By the time we get to the convention, somebody else gets nominated? Like Bill Weld. Won't win but it won't be you know who.

Inquiring minds need to know!

Strange energies are on the prowl so I was wondering what the most unlikely scenario might be.

would be their replacement

I notice with the WH task force trump isn’t there, and that says something

They have dug their hole, and now will be buried in it
