Trump already looks 20 years older 2 months into his second presidency. Look at pictures of him yesterday. How on earth would he even run for a third term, physically I mean? He will be the oldest president EVER by the time his term ends. 2 Years older than Biden when he left. A third term would serve no one but the actual rulers Peter Thiel and Musk behind him....oh.
Just a bigger stick up his ass with longer strings that goes higher up.
I think you're onto something... Thiel and the billionaires who bankrolled JD Vance knew exactly what they were doing when they made a deal with Trump for the VP seat.
tinfoil hat time: they will keep Trump for as long as he serves them, then it's 25th amendment time, and then theyll have their boy JD in power. even if it's only the remaining term, it'll be long enough to get the pieces into play for their ancap fantasies of a balkanized USA, with different CEOs over regional corporate fiefdoms.
No tinfoil needed, but keep it because you're right and the government might microwave you to death now.
Do you remember how and why JD Vance was picked as Trumps running mate? Despite you know...everything Vance said about Trump before then? Donald barely even knew him. But his son did. Via Thiel. They will 100% get rid of Trump if he ever steps out of line, and he knows it.
Trump will be 25th on January 20th 2027, if the Cheeseburger or a Luigi doesn't get to him first.
Everyday, I'm surprised trump hasn't farted himself to death yet.
"President died of excessive flatulence! Vice president JD Vance vows tough retaliation against Big Farta (and Iran for some reason)" would be the correct headline for this clown world timeline.
Trump is just a sock puppet for the corporations and ideological doom players behind him. He has no idea what's going on most of the time.
