Will Trump run again in 2020 if he loses this year?

[The Second Stone]

That would be awesome sauce.

1. He will be branded a "loser" after being defeated, and that will irreprarably ruin his brand. nt

[LongTomH]

2. Don't bet on it! A monstrous ego like that has to be fed.

Add in the fact that people like Trump blame others for their failures, not themselves.

He'll be back!

[Else You Are Mad]

12. When Trump loses in november...

He will scream he was the real winner but the process was rigged against him and the right wing will believe it. In the eyes of the right wing, Trump will never be a loser.

[Koinos]

3. Too old and too many more dead brain cells.

The Republicans will not let that happen again. They will run Pence or someone else equally awful.

[Hekate]

17. Reminder: the Republicans didn't run him. He ran himself by pushing in to the process.

[Koinos]

19. True, but they produced all the conditions that made his candidacy possible.

But next time you can be sure they will control the process more effectively.

[Hekate]

20. Cruz....

[awake]

4. That all depends on how much money he makes out of this years run

far from self funding Trump is charging his campaign for over $4.5 million for his "expenses" during the primary

[Sheepshank]

5. Will Trump run again in 2020 WHEN he loses this year?

No. he won't run again in 2020.

He'll be disillusioned with the whole "everyone loves me" thought

[jcgoldie]

6. No

Republicans will wake up and do a walk of shame.

[Warren DeMontague]

7. I'm willing to bet that by the time we get to the 2020s

we're going to start to run out of East Coast baby boomers to lead us, and then we'll have to figure out what's next, much to the panic of the East Coast Baby Boomer crowd.

[book_worm]

8. No.

[PatSeg]

9. I doubt it

Though I'm sure he'll do something outrageous to promote his "brand". Maybe Junior will run, but I hope this experience will kill any political tendencies any of them might have.

10. The orange tint does have an expiration date or half-life

By 2020 it may be a sickly shade of violet.
The hair on the other hand will alway be that way.
Hundreds of years from now, Trump's hair will stand
in a glass jar at the Clinton Museum as a thankful
reminder that we really dodged one in 2016.

[In_The_Wind]

11. I seriously doubt it.

[sofa king]

13. One can hope.

His dementia will be significantly advanced by then. He'll be meaner, more bitter, less in touch, he will make even less sense, and if we don't bag Congress and save them from themselves, several million of his most ardent supporters will be dead.

[louis-t]

14. At 74, he will not run.

Remember, the original complaint from the right was that Hillary, at 68, is "too old".

[monmouth4]

15. If he does, I'll bet he'll be a single guy....n/t

[Hekate]

16. Probably not, but Cruz and Pence most certainly will.

[840high]

18. No.

[Retrograde]

21. Nah, he'll be too busy with lawsuits

suing every voter who didn't vote for him

[Greywing]

22. No ... he'll be in the best nursing home money can buy

when his kids realize he is actually suffering from dementia

[ericson00]

23. When he loses, we will either never see him again or

He'll succumb "unexpectedly."
