Surprising that Trump would select a peice of shit that shares his views.

[–] Delusional 35 points 4 months ago

Yeah but he doesn't have any views. He just does whatever benefits him the most.

Oooh nvm yeah he shares his "view."

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

He shares what ever views are convenient.

Someone who also called him an American Hitler.

[–] jaybone 1 points 4 months ago

Yes surprising. I wondering if it will be surprising to him when Trump gets an angry mob ready to hang him.

JD can fuck off and die, traitorous piece of trash.

Bet he'll feel the same if they lose 2024!

[–] kitnaht 10 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

More importantly, he'll feel the same when 2028 elections come around, and we'll get Trump for a third term when they interpret the max terms law much like Putin does in Russia; where he's president up to the limit, they install a puppet for a single term, and then pop putin back in after.

I'm legit curious (no that's not quite right, terrinquisive? Horrifious?) how they'll justify the exemption from term limits. My gut says it'll be something about two terms max consecutively for 2028, then if that works, just throw out the term limits in 2030 or have martial law spring up.

They'll put him up as the VP and have the president step down. So Trump wasn't elected, nor did he run for the office. So the rules don't apply.

Edit: turns out Trump would be ineligible to be nominated for VP due to the 12th amendment in this scenario.

[–] jaybone 5 points 4 months ago

Oh shit that’s brilliant. Because they can just keep doing that forever.

Cast doubt? That means repeated the “Big Lie”. Show me some evidence, just a shred. If not willing to certify election results this person should be found unfit to serve, in a real democracy of course.

Trumps not in the spotlight. He will have a temper tantrum momentarily
