What are Donald Trump's political successes?

How much money has Donald Trump raised?

According to figures released by the Trump campaign in April, the president has raised more than $30 million for his re-election effort and has $40.8 million in the bank - more than any of the 2020 Democratic contenders have reported so far.

Could President Trump beat the Democratic nominee?

Absolutely. Polling consistently demonstrates that the 2020 election will be close, and while the quality of the polling at this stage in the cycle is spotty at best, Donald Trump performs well against a variety of Democratic contenders.

Despite a strong economy, the president has had difficulty getting above water when it comes to his personal approval rating. This presents a favorable playing field, if a weaker candidate than normal under these conditions.

Realistically, if there's a major Democratic contender you can find a poll of Trump beating them and another poll of them beating Trump. At this point in the cycle what makes the most sense it to look at how well Democratic candidates are assembling a coalition that could put them over the top.
