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
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
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
Cool.
Your party has proven that one can avoid taxes, but I don’t think you can avoid death as well.
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?
Ok we get it. You want us to try something. Message couldn’t be clearer.
So much for the “oh he’s just joking” excuse
He’s been gaslighting for over a decade now.
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
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.
I’m sure the magats are eating it up. When are the rest of us revolting?

Is he wrong though? We let this happen. It’s our problem. Our founding fathers had a spine. Our generation is weak. No I’m not excusing myself.
I’m sorry that it’s not easy for me to stare down losing my life and maybe worse. Sorry for being here and looking for other support l. Sorry
Hey, I’m not downvoting you or blaming you anymore than myself. I don’t have the answers on what exactly should be done. But history has shown us time and time again that people are unfortunately probably going to have to die before anything gets better. It’s just the way it works. Monsters don’t just give up their power.
They’re right. What are you waiting for? Some opportunity where it will be easy and you somehow won’t be at risk?
It’s so easy to be an armchair revolutionist, much harder to stare down losing everything.
They have been, you just aren’t hearing about it because they don’t want you to hear about it. People are fucking pissed.
Yeah I know people are pissed. So I guess I’m watching for when we mount a resistance. I would be a shot leader for it, and I must admit, I’m afraid, I’m afraid of what it will mean, but still somewhat ready to join.
Right now.
Walk the walk.
Aye
It means, “yes I agree”
When the rest of us pacifist lefties, and i am also including you the person I’m replying to, buys a gun. So far, the Republicans overwhelmingly own more guns and train more often and would wipe us all out from the comfort of their diabetic mobility scooters.
I thought it was the magas who were revolting.
Oh, you mean like revolution.
Revolutioning? I guess I could have said starting the revolution.
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.
At the rate Trump’s dismantling the Constitution, who really thinks there’ll be elections in 2028?
Of course there will be elections. Very few dictatorship skip elections outright nowadays.
Yeah, Trump will just win with like 270% of the vote
2028? Try next year.
