    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?" .

    And he sees himself as a cure rather than a symptom

    I was only joking

      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.

          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’.

          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.

            The statement itself is equally if not more stupid, but I think intentional.

              Stupid or otherwise, if it’s what his people want to hear….he’s only too happy to oblige. Costs him nothing.

                True. Should he be elected he really has nothing to lose whether or not he delivers.

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

                    That’s funny, I too heard the same.

                    I am sure he identifies as one, at least nominally.

                          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.

                                        As has been the case for the past 8 years, most of the problems President Trump has are self created.

                                          Bullshit.

                                          And I do mean bullshit. Does Trump make some dumb or oddball statements? Yes, occasionally.

                                          But nobody under the type of microscope he lives under is perfect. Every possible error -I said possible, not actual - is immediately pounced upon by the media, even if they have to cut the tape to make their story.

                                          In the meantime, the media was in the tank for Biden and his campaign. The man was starting to have cognitive problems in 2020. He has gotten worse as time has passed, but the media was covering for him like a cat covering up shit.

                                          It wasn't until the man literally imploded on a huge national stage that people knew the emperor had no clothes and the media was forced to report on The Resident's problems.

                                          I do not understand how people who have been so thoroughly gaslighted, had smoke blown up their ass so hard that smoke shot out of their nostrils, are suddenly ascribing to the media a level of veracity normally reserved for the Ten Commandments.
