        There will be elections. All autocrats love elections. Being reelected with 90+ % just feels too good to not have them.

      It’s only going to get worse. The right would rather elect trumps lifeless corpse than someone with any decency

      All that’s going to do is switch out him for his successor in the party. All of these things are things the party has been working for, such as declaring martial law and locking people up without habeas corpus, disappearing them, including citizens. Without addressing a lack of an opposition that can win in the face of election rigging 2028 won’t change anything except perhaps a leader that is not quite so stupid about doing the exact same things.

      He was just as bad the first time. People still voted for him. Junior or eric will win in 2032 probably.

          Neither desantis nor vance will get it ultimately. I do not think, especially not desantis.

              There will be a big fight in the viper nest for it in any case, that is the maybe one chance to unseat the party before it is too rigged to overcome, but it would need to be a popular candidate running a reform campaign.

              Newsom will not walk with presidency, he had his chance in 2024 when he could have won but waited his turn like a bitch.

              But I digress. Idk who ends with supreme leader but it will make things worse not better, half as mean and twice as smart and the country will get sliced up by the megacorps and parasitical biz dickheads.

            They will. Autocrats love public applause, and what public applause is greater than a 90+ % vote? Or do you know of any autocracy that does not have a ritual of approval called elections?

            Well, granted, military dictatorships usually don’t do this election thing. With all this ICE buildup, Department of War renaming, declaring war on gangs while redifining the Venuzuelan government as gang, and this Chipocalypse stuff Trump is cosplaying more and more as an unhinged warlord. I’m afraid you might be right.

    The last time this obese imbecile was that slim was deep in the last fucking millennium. Which was also when it was the last time he could squat like that, useless cunt.
    If he tried to squat like that today he’d shit himself 4 times on the way down and then roll over like a hog in even more shit.

    Fuck sake, What type of bunch of fools could ever vote for this buffoon? Hang your head in shame.

      Insurrection is grounds to declare martial law, remove those in power, and halt elections. He has to push hard enough to force people to fight back.

          There will be an activity called an election. It won’t be free, or fair, or allow everyone to vote. The simplest method would be restricting voting locations to those deemed ‘safe from insurrection’ aka counties that voted for Trump.

      They are considering deploying a national guard or something there. I believe this meme is purely humoristic.

    This is very similar to his playing of fortunate son.

    He watched the movie and though the fire-murder guy was a badass.

    (Or more likely, he never watched the movie).

    I just realised he doesn’t make these himself (or come up with them). But still. Asshole.
