Trump Wants to Be President for Life—and He’s Already Preparing for It
No, he’s not “joking” when he portrays himself as a king and muses about staying in office past 2028. Just look at everything he’s done this month.

I'd also like him to drop dead. It seems our goals are singularly aligned.
16 0 ReplyWhose life? He can't possibly live that much longer tbh
9 0 ReplyWith any luck he'll only live a couple more days.
28 0 ReplyI’m pretty sure he’s made comments that suggest he would try to eliminate elections.
7 0 ReplyHe is in charge of the FEC now.

Realistically, his life probably won't last until the end of his term. It's vance's theocratic dictatorship you need to watch out for.

"So you're saying there's exactly one very particular way for us to make you not be President anymore...?"

I hope someone helps him fulfill that wish immediately.
14 0 ReplyHopefully not very long then.
3 0 ReplyMy dudes, this pacifist in the USA with active background investigations will happily say I’d die defending my country against this outcome.
11 0 ReplyYeah I'm pretty sure a majority of Americans would pick up guns for that.

Personally I hope he doesn't even finish two full terms.
19 0 ReplyEven if he doesn't live through his term, the action of evading term limits will surely have much longer impact as it opens new doors for dictators.
2 0 ReplyBest case scenario he finishes his prep to abolish term limits and fails to kill elections.
Then we get Obama/Waltz 2028.

Give a man a fire, he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

2 0 ReplyWas it not already clear last time when he encouraged his followers to launch an insurrection when he lost?! How much fucking warning do you need?
85 0 ReplyThe insurrection happened because conservatives saw that they couldn't win democratically.
This time they did, with the help of voter suppression.
30 0 Replywith the help of voter suppression.
And amplification of the anti-electoralist/accelerationist cult's propaganda.
10 0 Reply.. win democratically. This time they did, with the help of voter suppression.
So, they didn't.

Let’s let him be president for life, as long as that life is less than four more years. Anything beyond that has a “second amendment solution”, as I’ve heard countless Republicans describe.
122 0 Replyas I’ve heard countless Republicans describe
99% of whom are fucking chicken hawks.
The only ones who put their money where their mouths are got arrested for occupying BLM land in Oregon, or later, Congress.

I mean, it's pretty obvious to anyone paying attention.
He wants to be America's Putin
94 0 ReplyBut hopefully he waits until the 4 years term is done. I gotta agree with the other guy who pointed out that vans is basically a nazi but unlike trump, vans would probably not care about "coming out" and doing what nazis do.
2 0 ReplyBy dying within three years?
79 0 ReplyHe scrapped USAID. The CIA is gonna take that a lot more personally than 'he didn't escalate our harebrained scheme in Cuba to a full war'.
39 0 ReplyWere the CIA to effective take steps to defend American democracy from authoritarianism they could almost be forgiven for all their other fuckery.

When 'jokes' align with actions, they stop being jokes—this is a blueprint for authoritarianism. Well-supported claims and critical analysis.

18 0 ReplyLuckily, Trump's built-in termination date isn't too far away and will limit the damage.
31 0 ReplyVance is the dangerous one. Trumps only purpose was to get Vance onto the throne. Peter Thiel will likely have him whacked and blame it on the radical left so Vance can use martial law to further dismantle Americas democratic institutions.
3 0 ReplyPeter Thiel likes money, i still find it hard to believe billionaires are ride or die like the Nazis.

I don’t think so. Dying of natural causes signals to Republicans that they just need to try again but with a younger fascist.
Dying from, say, a guillotine sends a different signal.
56 0 ReplySpaniards said much the same about Franco and that little fucker stuck around seemingly forever.
1 0 ReplyWe can certainly hope, but evil people have a way of clinging to life in ways that seem almost unnatural. Dick Cheney is still alive for god's sake.

Gonna be a short life if he tries.... lol.
20 0 ReplyI hope you're right, but we can't even get our fellow citizens to vote against fascism. Now some are expecting these same people to protest, engage in economic boycotts, risk their livelihoods by staying home from their jobs, and more!?
18 0 ReplyHis own guys tried to shoot him already. Twice. If he tries to outright break the constitution? Won't take long.

I think you meant to type Emperor For Life
