I don’t know if this happens, or if it doesn’t. There should be zero tolerance for even joking about this. The only thing that I will assert is this: If this happens, and some combination of: another branch of government, state governments, the public, law enforcement, the military, and the media, don’t immediately halt everything and throw his as in out, then the United States is over. I don’t mean ‘over’as a descriptor for decline. I mean it’s just immediately done. There is no nation, there are no laws and we have no constitution. The entire project ceases to exist immediately.

To the watchful observer it is very clear that there is a plan. Deploying troops to urban areas, buying a voting machine manufacturer, installing Project25-vetted admin workers everywhere, .... the list goes on. It does not take a genius to see the intent.
Not to mention expanding the bunker at the WH. Dude knows he's absolutely going to try to stay President no matter what happens. Expect full Franco.

I think we need G.I. Robot in the whitehouse
Watchfull?! Its blatantly obvious for even the blindest bat that they are not going to give up their front man who keeps the assholes behind the throne in power
I don't think he will be cogent enough to not be shitting himself by 2028. Bannon et. al, keep acting like Trump is a fit, lean, 57 years old and not the fat, addled 79 year old following his own father into the sunset of dementia.
He's already shitting himself. The smell is apparently horrid.
I honestly doubt that Donnie has a single more year left, let alone that he'll sit out this term, let alone that he'll do another one.
But when the Cheeto is dead, shit is going to hit the fan
The backup plan is A Weekend at Donnie's.
You joke but they have the AI tech for it
He 100% doesn’t plan on leaving when his term is up. This stupid ass Epstein Ballroom that he’s having built (amongst other things) is proof of that.
Unless he dies he'll be President in 2028, his current term isn't set to expire until 2029
This feels like the sort of intentional ambiguity someone like Bannon would do to test float an idea. If people freak out he'll just point to the technical truth and if they don't he's taken a step to normalizing the dictatorship.
Idk, they make it abundantly clear in that interview that they are angling for a third term and skirting the 22nd amendment. He can blabber all he wants about technicalities but at the end of the day he explicitly states he'll have another term, shit he even said two if that's what they need to "finish what they started."
Just think about a 90 year old Donnie rolling around the oval office in a mech suit or something with his head in a glass jar Futurama style. We're gonna be so great...
Trump will be POTUS forever. The face generated by artificial intelligence as the spokesperson chosen to represent the interests of the oligarchs who actually rule, before the general public.

So the constitution doesn't actually prohibit anyone from serving more than 2 terms as president, it prohibits someone being elected to the office of president more than twice (or once if they assumed office for more than 2 years of someone else's term.
In 2029 Trump could be elected as speaker of the house and then Vance and Dr. Evil resign as POTUS and VP and bam, Trump round 3.
Trump could also be directly elected to the Vice Presidency, though the legal ground there is shakier given the 12th amendment.
Ultimately, SCOTUS would need to weigh in because there is enough ambiguity in the constitution to allow for just the scenarios above.
Good thing SCOTUS is chock full of no-nonsense nonpartisan jurists of the highest integrity.
The 12th Amendment provides that “no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice President.” As such, anyone barred by the 22nd Amendment from being elected president is also ineligible to serve as vice president, and so a twice-elected president cannot return to power through vice-presidential succession.
If a person is constitutionally “ineligible to the office of President,” they are also skipped over in the presidential line of succession under the Presidential Succession Act (3 U.S.C. §19), which prohibits anyone ineligible to serve as president from assuming the office.
The ghouls in power currently don't understand or don't care, and by the time this is tested, it will likely be rubber stamped by the supreme court. But, there's still value in understanding ahead of time that no, that is not a constitutionally valid approach.
the Presidential Succession Act (3 U.S.C. §19), which prohibits anyone ineligible to serve as president from assuming the office

I mean, yeah. And he wasn't president in 2024. That's how election cycles work.
(Just pointing out the stupidity, obv the whole thing is batshit)
So? If the Founders COULD have Predicted Trump they WOULDNT have Written that Amendment!
-School Shooting Supporters!
The man is going to be in his mid 80s! Retire for the love of god! Go drink a mojito on the beach like a normal fucking person!
He's a narcissist. Letting go of ANY shred of power is unimaginable, because he deserves EVERYTHING. Any scrap of power he has relinquished has been at legal gunpoint.
Yes, of course he is (if he's still alive). His term doesn't end until Jan. 20th, 2029.
Addled mushbrain probably won't be able to form actual sentences by that time. Not that he could do that before.
Education is important. And not doing drugs. And not being a worthless narcissist nepo who has never worked an honest day in his pathetic life. And not being stupid. And not being a thief, a pedo, and a rapist...
Not that any of that matters to his fan base
Bannon sieg heiled. Fuck em.
Tell me you don't understand how election/inauguration works without actually explicitly saying it…

No doubt he’s learned some tricks from Poot. Only question is whos going to be the US’ Medvedev.
I think they mean Stephen Miller staying in office, not Trump.
Of all the crazies in the upper echelon of the regime, he scares me the most.
He's absolutely psychotic, toxic, and unhinged, wrapped up into a person way too put together to know anything about hyper masculinity.
And the full military is in his control.
He is the Goebbels of this situation that's for sure.

He went on to call Trump a “vehicle of divine providence.”
How to make fascism even worse: mix it with a religious cult

I mean, it’s not hard. Vance (or whoever) runs as President, Trump in the VP slot, then if they win, whoever it is resigns. That’s literally all it takes.
You have to be eligible for president to be vice president, for obvious reasons. Sane states won’t allow him on the ballot.
Question is, are there enough insane states to let him win?
Exactly, there's no mystery. This is the plan.
That shitty old bitch is barely lucid. The reaper is laughing at this "plan".
Rename it Supreme Leader If The American people and have no rules on how long he can be there.
Or change his name and SSN
That guy might croak, such clowns these people.
Death is inevitable even for the most hate fuelled of pieces of shit like him.
Which, for me, will be there best day in a long time. The bit that really fucks me off is that he'll not die in prison, like he deserves.
Furthermore, because of the spineless wankers in his opposing power, even if the us population manage to get the obese imbecile out of office he'll still not feel any consequences for his crimes and actions.
I'm not american, nor want to be or ever wanted to be. Hell, it's been off my holiday list for about 15 years, and I'm absolutely furious about him just getting his way all the fucking time. I just don't know how you -intelligent and not corrupted- americans can stand it.
The Plan: Weekend at Bernie's
Fuck that website. And fuck Trump. I really hope he FAFOs
