If the orange turd goes out for a third term, the sane people of the USA should run Obama against him. Fair is fair.
As much as I don’t want third terms and also don’t want Obama, this is the best action and I’ll vote for Obama out of spite. Maybe he’d get another chance to fix healthcare, and make it work right instead of a half measure that just gifts more revenue to health insurance companies. I’d thoroughly enjoy the video of trump’s meltdown when he loses to the “Muslim” black man he’s been racistly demonizing, and I’d love to hear his phone call conceding the race.
What if we ran someone who wasn’t a war criminal? Hell, I’d vote for Greta Thunberg, since we’re ignoring the constitution anyway.
The key point here is “shall be elected”. It says nothing about acquiring the office of President by other means. Like a coup.
That is the controlling part. This means it can only be this way not there are many possibilities.
This is definitely the kind of logic MAGA would use though, so you have a good point.
It also says no insurrectionists. And SCOTUS allowed him to skirt that.
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice
No person shall be elected
who says he has plans for an election?No person
Says nothing about God Empereors.
No man of woman born shall hold office more than twice, Macduff!
sigh I’ll go fetch the sandtrout, someone start training the fish speakers…
Oh, he has plans for the election… he’s done nothing but saber rattle and announce those plans recently.
no person
Well, no one said that oranges can’t duh
He’s a child
He’ll claim that it’s a joke if there’s significant pushback, otherwise he’ll push for it
His cult will lap it up
Because they’re stupid
Don’t listen to the asshata when they say they shouldn’t be held accountable either. When shit really spirals when he rigs November and ultimately doesn’t leave office make sure you hold every one of those insurrectionists and/or supporters accountable.
The Nurnberg trials proved that you can be put on trial for taking orders. This shitstains one and all want what’s happening. When they lose, and they will in 1 year or 50, hold them fucking accountable.
I’m so happy that I don’t live in 'Murica
But unfortunately, their idiocy causes ripples around the world
We have a full province of their stupidity in Alberta. I wish it was called out more by the MSM.
Everyone keeps saying “the Nuremberg Trials show you can hold them accountable” but keep forgetting that the Nuremberg Trials were held by an international court after it took a World Fucking War to get the Nazis to stop their shit. Not that I’m saying that’s an excuse to give up and let the Republicans run rampant but the Democrats aren’t doing shit and the rest of the world isn’t holding Trump accountable either.
Yes, I hate when people talk as though nuremberg 2.0 is an inevitability. Is Santa Claus going to bring the international court down to prosecute MAGA? it’s only going to happen if somebody makes it happen! It’s not a sure thing!
Best case scenario is he attempts it, a few red states allow it then a couple state courts remove him from ballot and finally GOP scrambled to find a replacement at even less time than when Harris became the nominee. They would be decimated in the GE.
And his drooling followers will cheer when he declares that he is rewriting the constitution just like his daddy Putin did. He’s not going to leave office while he still has a pulse.
He’s not planning on leaving the office. Hopefully we’ll still have elections in 2028 but I think he’s going to need to be removed by force in January 2029.
I don’t think he’ll make it that long. Everyday he’s looking more like a bloated corpse.
I really hope we’re that lucky.
At this point I think he can only be removed by force of nature. Death can only be cheated so long.
Yes, I’m afraid so too, because on the one hand, this regime is so criminal that everyone involved would likely face prosecution immediately after a new administration takes office—even under the dysfunctional U.S. legal system. Despite all the tricks and the expected election fraud in the event of another presidential election, I consider it virtually impossible that the MAGA fascists would be re-elected—they’ve pulled the wool over the eyes of their own, fantastic voters far too obviously this time.
On the other hand, ICE is quite obviously a secret police force whose mission is presumably to secure a coup d’état. I simply cannot see any reason other than the creation of a loyal terrorist force—which ICE already is—for its astronomical budget; it equals the military spending of a medium-sized country and, by U.S. standards, is more than double that of all U.S. federal agencies combined—such as the FBI, CIA, etc. The explanation for this is, in my view, obvious: ICE is intended to serve as a counterweight in case of doubt, should the military be unwilling to stand idly by in the event of an anti-democratic coup.
In short: I think that even darker times lie ahead for U.S. citizens, for they are being ruled by organized crime. I do not believe it can be removed without violence.
My liberty tree needs watering
Also, insurrectionist aren’t allowed to hold office, but the Supreme Court said, “Meh, as long as the people are willing to vote for one, it’s cool.” The one about term limits is more obvious, so it’s a more blatant potential violation, sure, but the current Court has already shown a willingness to ignore the Constitution if it benefits their guy.
The birthright citizenship case really made it obvious. Three judges straight up said “I will ignore the explicit text of the constitution if the right person wants me to” and they’ll do it again
Their reasoning could be used to allow Zohran Mamdani to become president - after all, immigrants aren’t supposed to become presidents either.
Of course, the SCROTUS will be hypocritical about this…
According to Trump he was already elected twice so his current term is illegitimate.
See it says elected, he isn’t planning on being elected.
And since when has breaking the highest laws of the land ever been an issue for this administration?
Erdogan did it fine. Trump saw that and went, “woah!!! i wanna do that!!!”
Says where? This document covered in shit stains for the last year?
