It doesn't matter what Americans say anymore. Trump can't run again. If he manages to hold on to power past Jan 2029, he won't need popular opinion (or votes) to do it.
Really?
-Trump on July 27, 2024
And more recently, even he's admitted he can't.
Exactly, if Trump is still President past Jan 2029, he won't need an election to do it. We won't have to vote!
Say what you will about Trump, but he delivers on his campaign promises. Albeit with a monkeys paw.
Of course, his supporters thought he was exaggerating or talking hyperbolically. They believed him when he claimed to never know about Project 2025. And maybe he really didn't, who knows. Its pretty clear he doesn't know wtf he's doing or even where he even is most days. He talks out of his ass constantly. But they find that endearing, I guess.
Its funny, the same people worried about a shadow government, rounding up citizens for FEMA death camps, poisoning our water supply, etc...elected us a guy who did and does all those things. Proudly, even.
Personally I think a political leader, while they should be likeable (I mean, that should be a bare requirement to even get anywhere in politics in the first place), they should also be composed, professional, respectful, and even if they disagree with you, do so receptively and constructively. He is none of these things, and they think that makes him great. Really it just makes him a baffoon and makes the entire country a laughing stock.
Soggy corpo middle manager types are unelectable anymore
Now that the Right Wing Authoritarians (RWAs) got a taste of the China White that is the likes of Taco, they aren't going back to the methadone like RMoney or Jeb! or Lil Marco, that's for sure.
They got a taste when McCain's people picked Palin. That was just a prelude of the stupidity, incompetence, and pure nastiness that was to come.
They'll be looking around for someone else they feel has Fuck You Money and also Says What I Think (meaning, they say racist and misogynist things). Along with some cover story about how they are Good At Bidness (TM), because they always go for some of the very stupidest ideas, and one of the very most idiotic of ideas that so many Americans cling to no matter how ridiculous is that The Country Should Be Run Like a Business. Because, something something, argle bargle, "efficiency". 🤦♂️
He'll need to be dead. That should be the ONLY acceptable result for anyone in a third term.
They wanna talk about third term abortions? Let's show em.
This quote has me worried for what comes next. And has since the election.
Although I remember hearing it closer to October when they had the debates.
It’s the quote that substantiates every American training with a long gun.
