In the third term, he’s gonna lower the price of gas and groceries & end the wars in Ukraine/Iran. Day 1. Bigly.
Don’t forget the bestest healthcare plan ever. Aaaaaaaaaany day now.
It’s a bigly plan, the most beautiful plan. You can’t see it, but many people are saying it’s the greatest perfect plan ever.
At this point I would vote democratic just to have a president who can speak well. We had a chuckle at the Bushification of the language but 14+ years of it getting worse is just tiresome.
If we understand “now” as less of a time stamp, and more of a constantly shifting, meaningless word, it all makes sense.
I heard the new healthcare plan is dropping two weeks from “now”! And the Iran war and the genocide in Gaza will end two weeks from “now”! Oh, and Venezuela will be up and running with their new for-US-profit systems two weeks from “now” so we won’t have to steal their resources ourselves! Go Trump go!
Oh, so THAT’S why the high gas prices are temporary. It all makes sense now.
The funniest part is he could do 2 of those very literally right now by just…stop attacking Iran.
Who could have predicted back in 2016 that giving this man power would turn him into a despot?
anyone with working eyes and ears
Which turns out to not be a significant minority of the US and A population.
I didn’t vote for him, but I was pretty sure that his plan was to hire people to do everything semi-competently so that he could focus on fucking around and enriching himself. That was a very disappointing thing to be wrong about.
Well, you were only wrong about the first part.
Believe it or not, there was actually a small coalition of just a few hundred million people screaming this from their rooftops around the world. If only the maga crowd could’ve heard their message sooner… Surely, well presented fact-based arguments would’ve changed their minds
They heard it. They also know that because you don’t agree with them on everything that you are a dirty liberal, and thus everything you say is a lie and you should be in jail.
And they knew that only a despot would be willing to actually put political opponents in jail, so they voted for one. But then he turned out to be some kind of despot!
I suspect there is a great deal of crossover between maga supporters and flat earthers
Shockingly, I had a coworker who is one of those that thinks they’re the smartest person he knows. He was one of those reddit-know-it-alls who spent a lot of time replying to people telling them they’re wrong. He claimed he was one of the most well informed people because he “reads both sides”. And by “reads both sides” he read the shit he agreed with and the headlines of an article from tHe OtHeR sIdE. He was also a staunch blow rogan supporter.
When he said he was “well informed” I replied “that’s what a lot of flat earthers say”. He got pissed and didn’t even reply. A fellow coworker of ours could barely hold in the laughter
I saw the Good Liars asking donnie supporters about how old the Earth is; and you see some of the dumbest answers.
Haven’t seen them probe on the flat earth thing (yet), but being a young-earther is really quite ignorant as well. Oh, and of course, schools shouldn’t teach evolution, because goddidit is better for young minds to contemplate, I guess. 🙄
Also, they had no other choice. A vote for Democrats means “those people” would get welfare benefits, the border would be wide open, xtians would no longer be allowed to pray, and everyone would be trans and vegan.
They heard the message, this is what they want. They want a lawless society where they can get away with ripping people off just like the president does.
I do believe his mother said something of the sort. That he should in no way ever enter politics
And a surprisingly (depressingly) large number of law and order preaching conservatives are supportive of him doing it, despite him not being allowed to do that literally being written into the highest legal document in the country.
At this point, we should also legalize becoming a President if you’re not born in the USA.
Imagine Zohran Mamdani as President…
Bad idea then we would get stuck with netynahu, musk or thiel
Laws aren’t important to MAGA
Pieces of paper are just pieces of paper if it’s not enforced.
And lucky us, laws are only enforced against us, not for us. In reality, for the average person, the law kind of doesn’t matter anymore. It’s been hijacked as a useful tool for neo-fascist oligarchs.
They just say things in pursuit of their goals. Maybe sometimes they don’t even realize because they’re riding the emotional high of siding with their in-group, but some do. Some know they’re lying scumbags.
But might makes right. What’re you going to do to stop them? Nothing. None of us do anything. So the scumbags keep winning.
if he can run so can obama.
That’s not how it works. The law applies to Democrats, not to the Ruling Party.
Obama has absolutely no interest in this shit show. That’s half the joke of the current state of the Presidency. You need to either be a grifter, a soulless climber, or a senile coot to pursue the job at this point.
Bonus points for all three?
Certainly doesn’t hurt
That’s how the presidency has always been; Obama is a soulless climber.
Was.
He’s just a celebrity now.
Does this mean there should be a nonpartisan Presidium?
I’m hearing good things about a Triumvirate executive branch
From what I’ve read, there was a proposed amendment that would overhaul the executive branch to where three people would act as a collective head of state and government. I think three presidents in the same office would be more interesting than just one.
TIL. I had no idea. And now I’m going to have to read up on this.
I was making a reference to the Roman Triumvirate which was famously unsuccessful at keeping one individual from consolidating supreme executive power.
Their spin for it work for Trump and not Obama is that they claim the intent was no more than two “consecutive terms” but consecutive or anything of the like does not even appear. It says once you’re elected to two terms you’re ineligible for any more, and can even block you from running as the vice president so he can’t pull a “run as VD Vance’s VP and have him resign” bullshit.
He also has the right to get shot in the head by one of his SS, but we all know that’s not happening.
A boy can dream
Cool, then Obama needs to run too.
Obama respects US law. He would never do that
Yes, he respects it so much he outbombed George Bush and managed to deport more people than Trump.
But looks nice, so that’s cool.
Signed off on the expansion of the patriot act. Gaslighted cannabis legalization. Didn’t create a UHS. Insurance companies cried crocodile tears but profits went up. I voted for that. It’s like watching WWE and thinking it’s real.
It’s a distraction from the Epstein files
Ask trump who won in 2020. When he says he did, tell him thats two consecutive terms.
Impossible it was just a joke last year. You think he would do that setup a horrific violation of Western freedoms as a joke so no one takes it seriously then just full send it?
I thought his original run in 2016 was a joke. Course the man himself is a joke, so at least there’s that
Well, he is correct. He is allowed to run. He just can’t get elected.
With his mental decline it is unlikely that he will be in any shape to overturn the constitution and mount a campaign. Then stranger things have happened.
But Miller will.
They’ll puppet his bloated corpse until the end of Vance’s term.
I don’t think he’s working enough to that anyway, he’s incompetent on his own, the people that enable and execute these atrocities are just as much to blame
If there’s still a Constitution by then.
Narrator: There wouldn’t be.
Not with that doomer attitude.
You meant the current constitution his whore Natalie wipes his disgusting orange ass with?

How much of this is him legitimately meaning it? And how much is it to shore up the willingness of cronies to break the law.
Like, if he’s not going to be there in 3 years to pardon and protect them from prosecution, then them breaking the law for him is very personally risky. He might be more concerned about the short term willingness of his underlings to keep sticking their necks out.
He’s coming out of that building on Inauguration Day one way or another.
While reality again invokes claim he has the ‘right’ to remain silent because anything he says can and will be used against him in a federal court of law. He has the right to a dipshit attorney, but if he cannot afford one or if all of them refuse to represent a despot, one democratic one will be appointed to him to make sure he goes to federal prison.
