I think I'd be surprised if he lived that long. I know he's "in perfect health" but that's getting quite up there.

...and who exactly is going to stop him? All evidence so far suggests he will continue to do whatever the fuck he wants and continue to get away with it, simply because nobody has the power or the will to stop him
Juan Merchan was obliged to do so by the law, the Constitution, and good-old ethics. But he kissed the ring, instead.
If no-one stops him, then the US only has itself to blame.
The tangerine pufferfish has an incredible ability to say a thing enough that it becomes true enough to happen.
Welp. It was a good run, America.
Almost three hundreds years of progress undone by a man that cosplays a billionaire Cheeto.
Truly remarkable.

He got into power rigging the election with Elon, Russia, and ballotproof. He will magically get enough seats in the midterm to overturn the 22nd and be king til he dies if successful.
Republicans would have to win two thirds of state legislatures with MAGA loyalists to even bring a vote to overturn the 22nd. There is no way that happens legally, and Republicans know it. If they plan on a third Trump term, my bet is they will either be ignoring the 22nd altogether, or enacting emergency powers to suspend the entire Constitution indefinitely.
I don't get the "rigged 2020 election" argument.
Did he forgot about his first mandate? If he won in 2020/21 it would still make 2 mandates and he theoretically would not been able to go for 2024/25.
OFC it is just a shit excuse to please his crowd, but math are math, one + one still equals two, 2020 election or not.
I wish soft launching a dictatorship was insane. He has soft launched all the atrocities before this. Always starts as a joke or suggestion... Until it's not. Now here we are. This soft launch will takes all the outrage of this move and diffuse it through time and the fire hose of all the other terrible things to happen before the the next presidental election... Assuming we will have one at all.
How can he possibly sell $50 hats? Hasn't he sucked poor white conservatives dry yet? They've bought plenty of merch and crypto meme coins already.

Prison. Now. For him and all his corrupt, openly criminal Constitution-shredding cronies. We are far past the point of hand-waving over the open criminality and corruption. And in Trump’s case, legitimate Constitutionally-defined treason. Mass arrests and convictions of these criminals needs to happen now. Right now. Even if we the people need to take care of it ourselves. Nobody is coming to save us.
