Republican Sen. Ron Johnson hedged on Thursday morning when asked on CNN about whether he would support President Donald Trump in his re-election bid in 2020.
"Will you back the President of the United States Donald Trump, the standard bearer of your party, in his re-election bid," Chris Cuomo, CNN's "New Day" co-anchor, asked Johnson.
"Chris, you know it's way too early to be talking" about the 2020 election, Johnson of Wisconsin said. "It could be a completely different world by 2020. We have a 2018 election first. Listen, I understand the kind of 'gotcha question' you're engaging here, but it's just way to early to even be talking about it."

Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson, at his most harmless, simply takes up space on Capitol Hill.
Even his fellow Republicans struggle to explain the point of the senator’s service, which on most days appears to involve nothing more than doing what Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell tells him to do.
But sometimes Johnson acts on his own. And then all hell breaks loose.
That’s what happened last week, when Johnson shamed himself and the Senate in a hopeless attempt to defend his political ally, President Donald Trump. It is not news that the millionaire businessman from Oshkosh has a thing for the billionaire businessman from New York. When most Wisconsin Republicans were distancing themselves from Trump before the state’s 2016 party primary, Johnson embraced the candidate — prattling on about how he could campaign with Trump as “the Ronald and the Donald.”
During the 2016 campaign, Johnson’s Trump worship simply made the senator sound dopey. But since Trump has assumed the presidency, the senator has begun to sound delusional..............................................
