What is the actual basis for the 8 year limit? If Trump were to win in 2024, how likely is it that he could simply ignore the 8 year 'rule'?
It's the 22nd amendment in the constitution
Whatever about what Trump does if he wins, we can also be fairly sure if he loses we'll see the exact same stalling, court cases, blocking and overall attempts to derail democracy as was attempted in 2020. Maybe even worse than before given they can all now claim persecution and conspiracy two times over.
None of which worked last time and the world moves on. At least until 2028.
We all saw it Donnie
Oh you can be certain of that. If Trump loses he’ll keep this pity party going as long as he can, preferably until 2028 if he can.
But therein lies the question; can he? Can he really keep the GOP onside for another 4 years? Can he survive the avalanche of trials that may deprive him of his businesses and maybe even his freedom?
The MAGA cultists will of course always support him, and will vote for him while he still draws breath. Some might even right him onto the ballot posthumously, they can be that foregone. The GOP will have to eventually decide if they are going to continue down the MAGA rabbit hole, or at least try to get some of the middle ground voters back. If Trump implodes or dies in the time between 2024 and 2028, they may find themselves stuck with a weird rudderless ideology that merely existed to flatter the ego of a selfish bell-end rapist, and that it done nothing to help them get moderate voters. Without Trump, the GOP Circus could devolve into the GOP Zoo, where extremists attempt to “out-Trump” each other in a destructive party civil war.
I don’t expect defeat 2024 to stop Trump, and I do expect him to just become louder. He’ll attempt Jan 6 again. He got away with it so far didn’t he, why not try again. Although this time they face an administration that won’t delay using the National Guard as long as possible. There will of course be all kinds of cheating and shenanigans with fake electors & attacks on voting places. The Vote itself will be pure hell for those running it, with scores of Lindell clones floating about trying to prove that China are hacking into voting machines and likely kicking off when they feel like it, further disrupting things. I hope they are preparing for all this nonsense.
Would he actually be physically able to do all of that again?
If he were to lose again, his "loyal" followers in the GOP will jump ship like rats.
Tens of millions to try and polish a....
Trump will be assassinated before he reaches the white house again.
By who exactly?
It's debatable he's physically or mentally able to do again now, yet here we are. Trump will be one of those men who'll outlive a dozen other healthier, better human beings and the MAGA cult will be chanting his name as this decrepit and obviously senile octogenarian blathers on stage, thatched yellow hair and orange face only looking more obscene on his skeletal, sunken face.
By the new world order, the reverse vampires, or the lizard people?
Cholesterol.
KFC & McDonalds.
Pretty sure the people who vote for him are the most likely lot to shoot somebody...
I believe infrastructure week will occur shortly after this...
I had to look at the date on that, thought boards was acting up.
Man I had to check the timestamp cos ... Donald. Donald. You had you chance to repeal Obamacare and you blew it. Spectacularly. You controlled all houses of government and still couldn't get a new bill through.
He really has nothing new to offer, does he? I thought maybe, he'd pivot to attack Biden's actual record but if he's banging on about Obamacare again? Ooof.
John Eastman having to eat into his wife's retirement fund to help pay his legal bills, because Trump isn't helping him out.
He was never a good enough lawyer to be rich, but you don’t have to be that great to have some money, Eastman has basically none after all of his legal fees. And on the right-wing podcast Happy Hour with Julie and Liz, he said as much. He told his hosts that the defense fund he set up for people to contribute to had raised “less than a third of what we’ve already incurred and less than about a sixth or seventh of what we’re likely to incur before we’re done.”
“I’m trying very hard not to completely deplete my wife’s retirement fund,” said Eastman.
"Trump will be one of those men who'll outlive a dozen other healthier, better human beings"
Like Henry Kissinger? Only the good die young, Kissinger a case in point. And Trump.
Kissinger died yesterday…may he rot in pieces!
They'll be dancing on the streets of Cambodia
Gag order reinstated
That'd be the NY Lawsuit gag order. The Insurrection case in DC gag order has not (yet, hopefully) been reinstated. With TFG one needs to be specific as to which case, what charges, etc., there are so many.
"A tragic day for the rule of law" according to Trump's lawyer.
"It is what it is", was Judge Engoron's reply 😎
Wtf is it with these people?
The pic above is certainly an interesting threesome.
Well that is an image I wasn't expecting to be in my head tonight
Small hands. *Gets coat*
