Trump’s suggestion that he could run for a third term—and Republican’s tacit openness to the prospect despite its clear unconstitutionality—is a low-key admission they don’t know how to put together a winning coalition without him directly in the ballot. See also: Wisconsin.

1) it's a shiny object distraction
2) he'll cause numerous other immediate disasters by the end of today and every coming day
3) that's a future issue that may be moot
Please stop giving it oxygen.
"And if you don't think he could win, you clearly don't know how things work here in Hell!"
Even now, I still can't stop laughing. It's so funny, it hurts...

Stats for the USA. Haven't checked of it's any different here.
Thank you, Fergus!
Elections will stop by 2026 unless we win either H or Sen which we won't hence he will stay. UGH
But they may be stuck with this dud.
I can tell you their pivot though. They will say it’s interpreted as eight consecutive years. Outlawing Obama, Trump still legal.
If this crazy reading of the constitution were to be upheld by our captive courts, Tr*mp could just play the Putin/Medvedev game: Run every other time and put an obedient figurehead in place in between.
You can't forget the Mafia framing: You CAN'T "leave" the Mafia. And Republicans are deeeeep in it. Compromised by Trump, Putin, and probably Musk too.
What can people do instead of protesting in the streets on Saturday who want to participate? I’m thinking some sort of phone/texting flash mob? Hmmmm….any ideas out there?
The people that got Donald elected in spite of his disastrous first term, J6 and humiliating court losses throughout 2023-24, will choose the successor and get them elected.
It’s not that hard. 🤷🏻♂️
They let Donald surround himself with sycophantic morons.
Once the chaos has served its purpose (privatization of government & wealth consolidation) they’ll re-shuffle the deck. 🤷🏻♂️
Folks only want “original flavor” Trump, not the imitators (see DeSantis).

The main underlying reason for his 2016 and 2024 wins was authoritarian level propaganda and disinformation (domestic and foreign).
They'll still try, though.
