In four years you won't have to vote again

No, he says that because he believes that the election system is getting worse. I'd like to hear the speech for context, but that's what I'm guessing.
He's engaging in hyperbole (Biden said Democracy was at risk), but he's not entirely wrong. Dems have fought tooth and nail against any type of election reform. They are actively trying to let illegal immigrants vote, just like citizens.
Now, ask yourself, "Why?" .

I think the generous read is that he was saying ‘I’ll fix everything in four years so you won’t need to worry about anything by 2028’.

And he sees himself as a cure rather than a symptom

Did anybody catch him adding “I’m not Christian!”?
-
I think he does, although I'm not sure how effective he could be, with states having primary responsibility for elections. I'm sure he could nibble at the fringes.

That’s not the generous read, that’s what he is saying. He’s not saying that he will take control and never leave, which is the way it’s being portrayed. That take is stupid, dishonest, and dangerous.

That's funny, I heard, "I'm a Christian".

Agree with you and @jon-nyc that is what he meant. Stupid media spin.

He does manage to "dance" around the issue. LOL
A man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.
The man is being clear as a bell. He didn't dance around the issue. I understand exactly what he's saying after the explanation.
Who doesn't?
You know, it's often said Christians shouldn't get their theology out of hymn books. Maybe you need to quit getting your political views off of X. The platform is opinion, which is fine. We discuss stuff we find on it a lot. But during those discussions, it's often found the tweet is severely biased, intentionally compromised or sometimes just a flat lie.
This person framing Trump as not wanting elections is a flat lie.
Noticed he didn't address why Trump said what he did.

Haha what an interview... he takes one question and tackles like 10 topics. Classic Trump! And in his defense, I think he answered the question but the idea that he meant "no more elections" is so ridiculous I honestly don't think it even registers to him that is what the question is all about.

It didn't register, because it's not even close to what he said or meant.
Why should he address every crockpot theory of the Democrat fever swamp?

@Jolly It’s precisely what he said, though I think it’s clear it’s not what he meant. A clarification was in order.

If you went back and caught the original speech - not the snippet - the crowd knew what he said and what he meant.
Ingraham helped clarify for those who had their panties in a wad over a non-issue.
