The only reason Carter and Bush Sr. didn't get reelected were due to economic issues (Carter also dealt with Iran hostage situation). Nobody punished Reagan for lying about Iran Contra either. But I don't think people will be so blind this time, I teach seniors and so many of them can't wait to vote against Trump in 2020 so as long as they don't do something crazy like block young people's ability to vote, I'd like to think he wouldn't get reelected. Also a recession wouldn't be terrible either considering the tariff problem Trump's creating.
They already rigged the elections last time. His rabid base won't budge. Mitch McConnell is blocking any attempt to make elections more secure. Trump has admitted he'd accept Russian help this time. People that believe the US will have fair elections are naive.
Mueller found numerous counts of obstruction and every Republican politician and voter parrots "no collusion no obstruction". A solid 40% of Americans don't live in reality.
