Tiger Woods’ victory at The Masters today as Bill Kristol dreaming of a Republican challenger to Donald Trump in 2020. . .
If Tiger can come back to win the Masters in 2019, the Republican Party can come back to dump Trump in 2020.

. . . yeah. About that. . .
The Donald Trump re-election campaign reported on Sunday that it had raised $30 million in the first quarter, which would be “more than top 2 Democrats combined”:

Goodbye, Dems:
JUST IN: President Trump’s campaign has raked in $30,000,000 in the first quarter of 2019, amassing a record war chest and far outpacing the field of Democratic candidates heading into the 2020 race, according to the campaign. https://t.co/3WOSd068cd – @NBCPolitics

For comparison purposes, it’s “21 times the cash on hand Obama had at the same point in his re-election campaign”:

Bill Kristol hardest hit:
Some people:
Donald Trump is vulnerable to a GOP primary challenge.
Reality:
"The haul brings the campaign’s cash on hand to $40.8 million, an unprecedented war chest for an incumbent president this early in a campaign."https://t.co/bBVDjhDKFy— Drew McCoy (@_Drew_McCoy_) April 14, 2019
