I hope this could lead to US Balkanization. If Donny can get a third term without amending the constitution, states can leave the union without a vote.

It'd be pure fucking chaos. popcorn-time

My bet, they roll back Presidential term limits, Obama returns and vanquishes Trump, then Obama implements or reimplements many fascist programs with vaguely social dem-y sounding language to prepare for an ultimately futile war with China.

His Grand Bargain, that would've cut payments, was his low-key major goal for his legacy. Fucker.

The nature of politics is that it's very hard to get hard things done.

Obama got his bag and the longer he stays off the radar, the better he looks. No way he wades into another campaign.

Unless he vanquishes Trump in single combat, it won't hapoen because the Republicans will have entirely captured the voting system

[–] moonlake@hexbear.net 44 points 9 months ago (2 children)

There aren't gonna be presidential elections in 2028, I'm calling it now.

He will say that the elections are too expensive and that he will save 100 billion dollars of taxpayer money by not having elections. Instead of the elections, he will make a poll on Truth Social where 100% of users will choose him over Gruesome Newsome. NYT will run a headline about how great and cost-effective this is. Libs will post epic clapbacks on twitter.

However, the USA is a Travis Bickle factory so there is still hope that we will see a very funny headline by that time

[–] Rey_McSriff@hexbear.net 55 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Lib tweets in 2028:

I can't believe I'm saying this, but you have to download Truth Social to vote to save democracy.

Libs doing entryism into the nazi party:

[–] josie@vegantheoryclub.org 16 points 9 months ago

Libs would still blame people for not voting hard enough

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 42 points 9 months ago

I mean yeah, who's gonna stop him? The Democrats? Lmao.

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 40 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The "method" is to literally just do it and know that the democrats will tut-tut and wag their finger announce how this goes against rule of law, and he'll just ignore them and they won't actually move to stop him.

I think a far worse outcome is him changing the rules so that Musk can run. Not an American, but a Musk term as president would probably be far more destructive than a third Trump term for y'all.

Ok if that's how he wants to play it, if presidents can serve more than two terms, how about Obama run again

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 52 points 9 months ago

The American people have been disciplined into never wanting good things.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 39 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So instead of challenging this fascist shit it's let's just do blue fascism instead?

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 29 points 9 months ago

Fascism™! It's a board game for the whole family!

I think it'll be Liz Cheney as VP: Unity Ticket.

which muscle do i squeeze to manifest this future

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 32 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Surprised we're not just abolishing voting across the board.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 40 points 9 months ago

I think the chance of the dems taking the House next year is zero. If I'm right - in red states the GOP will use any and all methods skew the results of federal elections including openly breaking the law. Why wouldn't they? They aren't going to be charged in state court and they certainly aren't going to be charged in federal court by Trump's DOJ. And - of course - Trump's FBI won't investigate any GOP criminality of any kind.

people out there actin like this is gonna be over in 2028

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago

the ascendancy of RFK and devotion to plague demons makes sense now, because certainly it will require profaned magic from the chaotic blindness beyond creation to suspend trump's mortality and extend his time on this plane of existence.

very cool stuff. hoping for a natural 1 / critical failure role during the summoning ritual.

[–] mar_k@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago (3 children)

who we betting on the dem nomination in that case? obama? bill clinton? george bush?

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 34 points 9 months ago

george bush

A 2027 Reddit post.

Look, we have to win and to do that we need GOP voters. Okay? Don't be naïve. Not only is he tried and true - he'll be 81 on election day and that helps us with the elderly vote...

[–] mar_k@hexbear.net 25 points 9 months ago

fyi bill and bush are only 78; same age as trump

Genocide is okay, but a third term merits execution.

[–] Dengalicious@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 9 months ago

Oh well, that’s happening domestically so it’s bad. Don’t you understand? Crimes in other countries = good, crimes against the free and perfect citizens of the USA = bad

If nobody stops him, why shouldn't he try to run again?

Good luck Donnie
