As the 2020 presidential election gets closer and closer, both sides of the political aisle are gearing up.

In recent weeks, the growing field of Democrat contenders has received a fair amount of press. However, earlier today, former White House press secretary Sean Spicer appeared on America's Newsroom.

During Spicer's time on air, he affirmed that President Trump will run on merit and accomplishments in 2020.

Reviewing Spicer's Commentary on Trump in 2020

First, Spicer began by noting the accomplishments which the president made while running for his first term in 2016:

"He won 306 electoral votes - states like Michigan and Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - the GOP hadn't put some of those states in their column since 1988."

The former White House press secretary then went on to explain why the odds may be against the Democrats, in spite of what they currently think:

"The biggest problem for the Democratic party is that these elections will come down to a big binary choice, a contrast."

This is something which many Americans have noted as Democrats adopt what various people view as far-left policies. Spicer touched on this when he referred to proposed left-wing reforms as "the far-left, socialist extreme."

Over the course of President Trump's first term, the economy has experienced various gains. Unemployment has decreased across the board as have the amount of Americans who are currently on food stamps. Spicer moreover stated that Trump has an advantage in critical battleground states.

In other parts of his interview with America's Newsroom, Spicer mentioned his previous conversations with younger voters in this country. The former White House press secretary confirmed that many young people have concerns about climate change and view Bernie Sanders in a favorable light.

In recent months, Sanders has made headlines for his considerable support amongst younger voters. However, some people have questioned the underlying reasons for that support. Many ultimately concluded that the support boils down to Sanders' vows to make various costly expenses free; examples include "free" healthcare, "free" college, etc.

Despite Sanders promises, many Americans are aware that there are no free lunches in life. Someone always foots the bill. That someone continuously turns out to be the American taxpayer, causing working people to lose more of their hard-earned money.
