It's keeping people passionate about politics, so it's pretty cool in that regard. Not as awesome as having a straight open line from the president, though.
2020? Well, if democrats/greens/libertarians don't put in someone electable, I suppose that'll just be a steal. I mean, maybe I'd have even voted for O'Malley (he seemed moderate and mostly sane, and I could largely forgive his version of pandering, because he put forward some real progressive shit in regards to energy). I'd say his real concern would be conservatives voting for him, but he's appeasing them left and right (well, right, right, and right iykwim), so I don't think that'll be a problem for him really.
Media's got some soul-searching to do anyways, it'll be good for the country if a bunch of people stay aware through all of this time. Today I got a report that dragged me in that was all like 'omg, trump signed away tranny rights!', notable interest for me. So I investigate....
Tranny bathrooms as it relates to school children. A terrible idea that even exacerbates further the already terrible conception of privacy and protectionism what is our school toilets (and locker rooms are a whole 'nother level of that shit). That's what he undid. All of that frustration on my part for nothing.
It's just fighting the stupid fight. Unisex single-room (fuck those cheapo-stalls of america btw, what are we: third world?) toilets (or allowed uses of staff toilets where applicable) is a reasonable demand that offers protections for a LOT more people than just trannies... application in avoiding some of the worst forms of bullying in schools, increased personal security (and security of belongings) in poorer schools, less social pressure for the anxious, etc.
Way of the future, all that. Digress too far perhaps. Regardless... it doesn't seem to be doing any harm for Trump to be holding rallies: still a very active president. Be nice to see him stamp his own identity instead of playing ball with ultraconservies, but that's something to talk about with his supporters I guess.
Sometimes the tabloids do get it right. Rare though.
Another gem

Another gem
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
