this is how he operates.. he denies, then jokes, then encourages others to joke, then when they do he gets serious, then act like everyone was always serious.
this man will NEVER willingly give up a shred of power.

....to shreds it is, then.
"Rewrite the rules" is a clear campaign slogan.
This is a HARD line for me. This fucker doesn't get to run again.
Hopefully also literally unable to run
You think he's currently able to run? If so I have a medical report you'll love to see.
He wasn't able this time either. 14th amendment.
As an adjudicated insurrectionist, he's disqualified under the 14th amendment from holding his office. We're already past that line.
Well, running for president isn't really running if the result is already fixed. So you have that going for you.
Does everyone remember during Trump's first presidency, President Xi had just made himself president for life. Trump brought this up at a rally and said "maybe we should try that" and the crowd cheered. It was never a joke. Everything he says is testing the waters to see what reaction he'll get. Now there's a group trying to get him elected to a 3rd term. I think a Republican congressman or two is also pushing for this.
He said he’d do this. Why are any USAians surprised?
I’m glad to see “Americans” getting used less for obvious reasons, but every time I see that written I read it as “us asians”.
I vote for Stations.
Modify them to read ‘Trump: 1946 - 2028’.
*this is not real, I shopped it
"See?! Libs want a dictator too!!!!11"
Please don't, I would buy them and finance Trump :(
Where did I suggest purchasing anything?
You really are a genius, i wasn't sure before.
Turns out it's nowhere near as complicated as everyone said it would be to change the constitution. All you've got to do is buy yourself a Supreme Court.
Nah, turns out you don't actually have to change it at all. If nobody is willing to enforce the rules laid out in the Constitution, then it's just a worthless scrap of paper that means nothing. He can just do whatever he wants now, nothing matters.
Every child knows a rule only counts if a) you're caught breaking them and b) you're punished for breaking them.b
He's just ignoring it anyway.
and ignore them because they're incapable of enforcing anything. Turns out half of our representatives are nazis and the other half are spineless cowards.
They're not cowards.
They're collaborators, getting rich off it just as much as the others.
The Supreme Court has often stood against him and is now. He thought he could buy them, you thought he could buy them, they don't agree with either of you.
Long may I continue to be proven wrong.
Next merch: Trump 1793.
I guess Trump merch is exempted from the tariffs?
Susan Collins is very concerned.
I'm not protesting now, cuz laziness, but you better belive I'm burning shit if he wants ro run again
He wants to run again, but really, he wants to not need to run at all. Just dictator for life, which is probably not very long considering his age and health. Putin is his model for how "free and fair" elections should go.
I have faith that our Constitution will weather this and also no Republican will sit in the oval office in 2028.
Even if he isn't going to run, why would he not try to sell such hats and t-shirts? It's money in the bank.
I can't think of a comment to make here that won't get me investigated by this Secret Service
Step up your op sec and speak freely :)
It's pitchforks and guillotines time.
He may be old, but mentally and emotionally he is like a child.
Maybe its for Trump Jr? I think we all know its not, but maybe?
Given his tanking popularity, he might be better off ordering the Trump 2032 hats alongside this and get a bulk discount.
He could pull a Clinton and build Melania as his successor. It wouldn't change his politics, but would at least be a prettier sight.
I can't look at her any more these days either. She reminds me of Roald Dahl's description of people with ugly thoughts.
She doesn't even want to be there for pictures, let alone actually do anything. Hillary, for all her faults, was actually a politician.
Eric Trump 2028? lol
