He'll definitely go away without a fuss after his second term, right? He isn't considering what could be done about the 22nd amendment. Putin extended his terms in office in creative ways, but Trump isn't Putin and has a high regard for established political mechanisms, even if they mean there will be less importance for Trump at some point in the future.
- gg82 2y agoI'm sure Trump will be happy to go into being former president Trump at the end of his term.... if the left let him.
- card_zero 2y agoIs there any source of reassurance about this I can look to, or only your gut feeling?
- yencabulator 2y agoWhat kind of a veiled threat is that? How would "the left" not let a president leave office?
- colechristensen 2y agoIn four years trump isn’t going to be able to speak in complete sentences, much less run for office. We don’t have to worry about him stealing any more elections, he’s far too old for that to be an issue
- card_zero 2y agoHe'll be 3 years younger than Ali Khamenei is now, and 5 years younger than the pope.
- colechristensen 2y agoThere is already very clear cognitive decline. I don’t think he’ll be able to function as president in a couple of years.
- ubertaco 2y agoI am less optimistic than you; I don't see how that would matter to the current MAGA movement.
