A primary challenge of Trump will almost certainly fail and may cost GOP 2020 election and Congress

Primary challengers of sitting presidents never win, even strong ones, and neither does their party:

Any Republican supporting a primary challenge against President Donald Trump for the Republican nomination in 2020, if it is successful or even if it just hampers the primary process, is virtually guaranteeing the next president will be a Democrat who will nominate the next Supreme Court and sign laws like the Green New Deal, socialized medicine and universal income. Every single one of the one-term presidents of the 20th Century — William Howard Taft, Herbert Hoover, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush — all faced strong primary challenges. Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson both withdrew their candidacies from the elections of 1952 and 1968 respectively in the face of a strong primary challengers. In every one of these instances, the opposition party won. Every single time. All of which make such a primary challenge of Trump ill-advised, that is, if Republicans are in the business of winning elections. What do you think?
