MSNBC guest and marketing expert Donny Deutsch said Monday that President Donald Trump will win reelection "in a landslide" if he is not removed from office before 2020.
Deutsch joined the panel on MSNBC's "Deadline: White House" to discuss the investigation of Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential election. Host Nicolle Wallace and the panel discussed the Russia investigation and how the Trump administration is attempting an "ongoing attack" on the FBI.
Deutsch then lambasted the "absurdity" and "obscenity" of the way the Trump administration has functioned, but Sirius XM radio host Karen Hunter said the administration's problems will not matter to voters.
"We can have these conversations all day long, and all the punditry can be absolutely correct, but it’s not going to show up in the voting booths," Hunter said.
Wallace pushed back on Hunter’s contention by mentioning Trump’s low approval ratings, but Hunter and Deutsch argued that it didn’t matter because of the loyalty of Trump’s supporters.
"His approval rating is at an all-time low, and yet the people who support him still support him, and they think this is all a hoax and this is a scam," Hunter said.
Wallace talked about voting Trump out of office, but Deutsch and Hunter maintained that Trump must be removed before 2020.
"I’ll go one better than you," Deutsch told Hunter. "And this scares me. If he is not taken out of office—"
"In Handcuffs," Hunter interjected.
"He will win again in a landslide," Deutsch finished, talking about Trump in 2020. "Because people vote with their pocketbooks, and that’s what’s scary to me."
Deutsch has been a fierce opponent of Trump, calling him a "dictator" and challenging him to a fight. He has also reportedly been dating Trump’s second wife, Marla Maples.
