Yeah - I think there’s a very small core of people who genuinely think Trump will win a third term, and a slightly larger core of people who want him to. Then a much larger set of people who are engaging in some very unwise trolling.
I just think it’s telling that all the rabid Trump supporters I know aren’t there. Zero of them want to see him on the ballot a fourth time or otherwise pull shenanigans.
- TimorousBestie 1y agoYour account is reassuring to me, yes.

I would expect him and his handlers to look to other authoritarian regimes to see how to safely have democratic votes without any chance of losing power.
