Just one fuckup after another

This is SO stupid. He’s squandering political capital at an unprecedented rate. I suspect he’s just trying to move on from the Signal fuckup but this is not the way to do it.

He makes it difficult to support him outside of maga echo chambers. Even echo chamber adjacent places like daily wire will not support this sort of talk.

I already won the over/under on this.
Having said that we need to remember that he’ll be 82 and likely deeply unpopular when his term ends.

If he keeps this up, he's going to be claiming massive widespread voter fraud come the mid-terms.

I can’t imagine him being alive in 3 years,
Maybe 2 years, absolute max.

The new thing this term is that you have to take him literally, not just seriously. He really wants his fans to be tired of winning.

The thing is you have to take him with or without TDS, you get two very different results.
The one without TDS is closer to his intent.

Yes, but he feeds TDS deliberately. It’s foolish.

That’s true but how would you even know? Can you really leave your Trump Devotion Syndrome at the door?

It's pretty easy for me to disregard a New York jerk, I have over 70 years of experience doing this.
At the same time I can enjoy the things he says that make Whoopi crazy and feed her ratings.
He stopped Hillary and Kamala, possibly the two most important political events of my lifetime. For that, if nothing else, he has served us well.

Biden probably has a better grasp of reality at this point.

Maybe tomorrow he’ll announce this has all been a big April Fool’s Prank?

Don't think for a second that he has plans of willingly leaving the Oval office ever. He knows his criminality and treason. He knows the second he steps down, he's toast. His only true option is to rig the next election for JD. For which JD will pardon the poofer. If he were a smart man, and he is not, he would treat this term in a 180 polar opposite direction of engratiating himself to all. To be benevolent, to actual do the work of the American people. Then, just maybe, JD might have a shot in 2028. As it is, GOP has no chance of reelection.

Geez, what a bunch of hair-trigger reactionaries. That's just Trump being Trump. He's patting himself on the back for his successful start to this term
The fourth term statement? I told y'all Trump believes he was cheated in the 2020 election, as do millions of Americans.
And Trump isn't running for a third term, so y'all can get your panties out of a wad. He knows that the only way to run is to repeal the 22nd, and that's not happening. Besides, I think he knows how old he would be.
I don't know why he decided to wade into the question, other than he tends to answer most questions, unlike the previous administration. Plus, for good or bad, he likes to control the news cycle.

I think you miss my point. No, I don't believe he is serious about a third term. I do think what a president says matters though, and this talk just plays into so many people's worst fears about him. It's jerking Americans around and it's irresponsible. The people that did not vote for him are not the enemy.

With Trump, you separate the wheat from the chaff and watch what he actually does. Don't get caught up in the light show.
Some things I think he's committed to:
- A continuation of the tax cuts from his first term.
- Cutting the size of the government.
- Reformation of the DOJ.
- Border security.
- An end to the Ukraine War.
- Tariffs, as a spur to manufacturing and middle-class jobs
- A return to the original Title IX, with gender defined at birth.
- A revitalization of the military ethos.

I agree with the policies by and large, but he could be a much better leader with more judicious communication.
