ask again in 4 years when the rapist refuses to step down and his court lackeys back him on it
I dont think he makes it 4 years. He is just the means to an end. Vance i think 25th amendments him Jan 21, 2027. That way he wont serve 2 years and can run for 2 full terms. Its that or they just kill him. Dems will 100% get the blame and it could get even worse.
I think it is if you serve more than half a term it counts as 1 term for purposes of the 2 term limit.
You're cute that you think we'll have elections again. Before the midterms, they'll run a false flag operation so they can declare martial law and cancel elections.
"If I'm elected, you'll never have to vote again!"
We'll have elections just like Russia and China do
This has been my thought lately as well. Donald Trump is simply a convenient means to an end. He is so ignorant and narcissistic that he will never see it coming when he is eventually given the Julius Caesar treatment by the techno-fascists.
The real oligarchy that is actually wealthy instead of pretend wealthy is chomping at the bit to get in the big chair permanently. Now that there is ample precedent with multiple assassination attempts on Donald Trump's life, all they need to do is have him assassinated for real, declare martial law as you said, and then install their chosen dictator as the public lever puller.
They can blame this on whatever patsy is most convenient to allow them to swiftly tighten controls on an unsuspecting public. The ironic part being that in a twisted turn of fate, we may eventually end up in a situation where some of the people who got deported turn out to be the lucky ones. As Aimé Césaire warned, fascism is colonialism turned inwards, and whatnot...
This, of course, assumes he doesn't just drop dead of any one of a dozen age-related health issues one day.
If Trump dies in office, I'd prefer it to be a lighning strike while he's golfing.
Something that even the craziest of the MAGAts can't get away with blaming on the democrats.
Trust him, the new 'Messiah' will hold back every hurricane with his neutron bombs. /s
Believe it or not, some of them believe Democrats control the weather. I can hear it now, "Democrats assassinated Trump with lightning!"
You think the Jewish space laser people won’t just immediately start screaming that the Haitians have built a lightning shrine on the island or something like that? We are no longer bound by reality in reporting, much less truth
Don't forget that they claimed hurricane helene was manufactured by the dems and sent to the states it went through for the sole purpose of killing Republicans ahead of the election.
I really wish I was making that one up...
