You have to soft launch your fascist dictatorship. People need time to accept the possibility.

it's ment for americans. more than soft people
Third term has nothing to do with being a grift for money or whatever. He's using that as a tool for power
It's simple. He's going to jail when he's done being president. And he's pissed off so many people he's definitely getting shanked
He cannot pardon himself for state crimes
The entire point of running a 3rd term is to stay out of jail
courts decided he's not going to jail....
During his presidency...
And he can't pardon state crimes
God knows how many more state crimes have been queued up since then....
He is going to ride the courts until he dies or too old to care. They had 4 years to lock him up for his previous crimes including Jan 6th. He won't see jail time and he knows it

$50.00 for a fucking Made in China hat.
With tariffs, $120
i just assumed the corruption is so out in the open already that he will add an exemption for trump merch
I don't get the "rigged 2020 election" argument.
Did he forgot about his first mandate? If he won in 2020/21 it would still make 2 mandates and he theoretically would not been able to go for 2024/25.
OFC it is just a shit excuse to please his crowd, but math are math, one + one still equals two, 2020 election or not.
Let me guess ... a 3rd term cannot end after four years but is a term for life .....
Could be a major grift, could be a very serious motion to run again, we don't know what's real because he'll try anything and knows his shit licking supporters will be right behind him to thank him. I'm skeptical but I'm ready to face the worst.
Legally the only way he could run again would be to modify the Constitution which is simply impossible since the Democrats will never agree to it.
Which means he'll have to do it the Trump way by forcing things. => 2028 comes up, he announces he's going to run again and his fanbase will support him.
=>The Republican leadership will then have to choose between supporting him again or not supporting him and splinter the party. They will probably choose to support him which will trigger probably the biggest constitutional crisis since the Civil War.
=>Democrat states and maybe a few Republican will refuse to put him on their ballots and the Supreme Courts has to get involved. A Supreme Court that is dominated by 6 Republican appointed judges at the moment (3 of whom were appointed by Trump). If more Democrat appointed judges die during his current term, then there's a fair chance he'll have complete control over it by the 2028 election. They might actually reinterpret the Constitution to let him run.
I'm honestly very concerned for the US. Maybe he chokes on a chicken wing and we can avoid this whole mess.
We've just recently seen there are only two justices willing to follow Trump off the cliff when push comes to shove.
