Comment on President Trump shows President Zelenskyy and President Macron his 4 More Years hats
Taldan@lemmy.world 1 week agoYep. Way too many people are treating it like a joke
He already attempted to overturn an election he lost. He’s repeatedly stated he wants a 3rd term. He has consilidated his oower and put loyalists in nearly every position of power
What more could he do to make it clear he plans to stay in power?

Yeah, we’ve seen this over and over, where he says something heinous, and all the MAGAs claim that he was only joking, and then we find out our later than he was 100% serious.
He’s 100% serious about this. Everybody thinks those cases about Jan6 and the stolen documents are over, but they aren’t, they’re just waiting for him to not be president again. He knows that once he is out of office, there is about a 100% chance he goes to prison for life. Before 2024, he had a shot at at house arrest, now he’ll be lucky if he doesn’t get the death penalty. Life in prison would be a gift, one that he doesn’t deserve.
So he will do ANYTHING it takes to stay in office, because he has to. Martial Law, suspend elections, election fraud, flat out refusing to abide by the the election or the Constitution, etc. He will choose one, or all of them.
