    And then, when the day comes, he’ll invoke the oldest legal theory of “Try and stop me”

    Wait, he’s admitting that rules apply to him? Shit, he really is about to die, isn’t he?

    “I have my highest poll numbers that I’ve ever had”

    I was going to say “low bar” but it’s not even true from that perspective:

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2025/10/29/trump-approval-rating-hits-second-term-low-in-latest-poll-despite-his-claims-of-highest-numbers-ever/

    "Oct. 29 -19 net approval rating: Trump’s approval rating dipped to a second-term low of 39% in Economist/YouGov polling, while 58% disapprove of his job performance in the survey taken Oct. 24-27 among 1,623 U.S. adults (margin of error 3.5).

    Trump’s net approval rating in the poll is also lower than all but one Economist/YouGov survey taken during his first term."

    We’re not even a year into this and it’s already abundantly clear that these are fascists.

    There is no doubt about it. He will try.

    “I guess I think it’s too cute,” referring to a scenario under which the person elected president would step aside so he could take over. “Yeah, I would rule that out because it’s too cute. I think the people wouldn’t like that. It’s too cute. It’s not – it wouldn’t be right.”

    Adjusting for sociolectical differences in our usage of “cute,” I’ve never agreed with him more.

    This clownfuck always tries to test the water like this. Makes it a joke.

    He 100% will try to stop legal elections so his addled ass can continue to stink up the WH.

    I want him to keep threatening to run in ‘28. As long as daddy is saying he’s going to run, the sycophants who want to claim the throne won’t dare to run against him.

    The Democratic candidate should be able to walk across the finish line (assuming we still have elections in 2028 and all that).
