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.
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.
He won’t run cause there won’t be an election; he just won’t leave.
“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:
"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."
“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.
He doesn’t have to run. He can just declare an emergency and cancel the election.
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?
Sowmthing fishy about him admitting something. He’s not gonna let go of power that easy.
The only thing for him worse than dying outside of office is dying with Obama in office.
And then he’ll pull the same stunt he did in 2020.
