Extra extra, 80 year old fat man thinks he is going to live 8 more years
Not on my watch. I actually meant that oath I took against all enemies, foriegn and domestic. Unlike Trump
He will run and the supreme court wont shit about it by citing some bullshit legal ambiguity. Democrats in the house will whine and then say they can’t do anything about it while waving small little signs to show their indifference.
Right wing voters will vote for him again and leftists will step aside and say the democrats are just as bad
“The constitutional amendment only applies to Harry Truman”
Easy, the founding fathers didn’t say anything about term limits.
Bingo
Have they actually tried arguing that constitutional amendments are unconstitutional?
Republicans are already ignoring constitutional amendments like separation of church and state with teachers having to teach the holy bible in Oklahoma. The right doesn’t even need to rule something as unconstitutial the supreme court simply ignores them
The argument made for Trump being able to run for a 3rd term is that he didn’t have two consecutive terms. The rule of law in this country is a joke. Nobody is held accountable for any crimes, if he runs nobody is going to stop him.
OK I was asking in context of the founding fathers comment though
Cool.
Your party has proven that one can avoid taxes, but I don’t think you can avoid death as well.
Third term is on the table? Obama should run that’d shut them up really quick.
He’s too much of a boy scout to ever do that.
What i’d do to turn back the clock to Obama’s era. I have my doubts now I’ll even be alive for a better president
Ok we get it. You want us to try something. Message couldn’t be clearer.
I wonder where the republicans that take the constitution so litterally are right now? If I understand right, there’s a difference between full on MAGA-cultists and actual replublicans. It’s clear the democrats are worth fuck-all at this point so I’m keen to see if there are republicans with integrety. Or you know, the democrats getting their shit together.
Trump getting elected after this term will result in JD Vance becoming president, I’m almost completely sure of that.
They’re biting their toungs and waiting to hear what to think next
He’s already old as fuck and declining. No way he’d be mentally fit to run in 4 years, let alone finish a 3rd term.
He wasn’t mentally fit this time and that didn’t stop the hordes of magas lining up to vote for him. I have no doubt that they’ll be fine voting for the weekend at donny’s version of trump.
This time they’ll hook an AI trained on his posts and the gibbering of monkeys to Twitter and nobody will be able to tell the difference.
trying hard to see the glass half full: it’s good that he implies that there will still be elections
They’ll be like Russian elections
Show him the 2024 A24 Civil War movie… TV is the only thing he understands and that’ll scare him straight
I hate that A24 made a documentary of our near future.
They tried hard to focus on the moment and not “what lead to this”… but even so it was really on the nose
I hated that movie…but god that ending…
I believe death by an AR-15 bullet is considered dying of natural causes in America.
Hopefully Trump dies of a natural cause, tonight.
Let’s just hope The Simpsons are actually predicting the future
because Lisa will become president and fix everything after trump bankrupted and robbed the place? sigh, yeah
Not that
He will probably suspend the constitution soon. He will at least make a serious effort to have the entire thing suspended due to “far left radical insurgency” or too many “illegal aliens disrupting the political process”.
Idk why he’s talking about a 3rd term. I don’t think anyone expects him to live out this one. He is very old. 4 years of being a fascist dictator might as well be a decade off of his lifespan. There’s no way he’d be physically capable of running again. Being the most vile human being alive is actually very bad for your physical health.
Why suspend it when you can just ignore it?
Look a fascism lite in Russia or Turkey – they still pretend to have democracy and rule of law – that’s the power of pretending.
There also comes a point where they don’t have to hide anymore. They’re doing Nazi salutes on television. They’re pardoning white supremacist neo Nazis. They’re already there. Why pretend when they can just deny that such a thing exists or should exist in the first place? Fascists will love it, and that’s where his core supporters are anyway.
Have you seen Mitch McConnell?
So much for the “oh he’s just joking” excuse
He’s been gaslighting for over a decade now.
Remember when Obama was asked if he could run for a third, and he said he couldn’t because it’s not allowed. Imagine a President who respects the law, the Constitution, and the will of the people via Congress. Irony is that it was Republicans who put in place the term limits, so Trump is even against his party’s previous mandate.
I also remember republicans freaking out about how Obama was going to run for a third term and declare himself king even though there was absolutely no indication that anyone thought that was a good idea. He was just popular and they couldn’t handle it.
I mean Obama did drone strike an American citizen without due process but respecting some laws is better than none.
They’re just going to put his name on the ballot and run it through his hand picked judges. If we just go along with it, Elon will use Star Link to clean up the votes so he wins. Then the scotus will allow because he can’t get impeached and the Senate won’t convict.
Only solution is Luigi.
