100% talking points to be taken seriously.
"If" Trump makes it 4 years, which I think is doubtful at this time, Republicans will primary him for the nomination.
As far as the Ukraine--you have brought up another issue.
Recently Paul Manafort was forced by the DOJ to register as a Foreign agent. He was working for the Russians earning 17 million from them to advise the Russians on Ukraine/US policies.

This was installed into Republican platform during the RNC Convention in July.

John McCain wanted to know what this was doing in the platform.
These sanctions were written in response to Russian interference into the election.
It's clear that the congress has taken over the steering of this ship. Trump cannot veto this vote.

As far as 2020 you might want to keep an eye on Democrat John Hickenlooper, governor of Colorado.
He can veto it, then congress needs to decide if they want a veto override vote.Really hard to say how the game will play out.
He still hasn't signed it. Been on his desk for days now. If he tries to ignore it it will pass as law without his signature after a handful more days. So I wonder if he'll wait to the very last second to sign it or just ignore it and let it pass without his signature?
If he trys to pocket veto it, it will show that he is nothing but a Russian puppet
And his sycophantic base would still deny it to the ends of the earth.
But congress will probably make a point of protesting
Will they? Or will the GOP give a stern statement to tell us all of how they are "deeply disturbed" and do not a damn thing?
The republicans voted for these sanctions as a veto proof majority. Trump's pocket veto would be a affront to his party.

Congress will have to go out of session before the 10 days are up first..
