    I can’t think of a comment to make here that won’t get me investigated by this Secret Service

    This is just click bait

    There is no useful information from what crazy merch is on the store. I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t even know that he has a store. There are real concerns about 2028 but this is just the media looking for attention.

      He wants to run again, but really, he wants to not need to run at all. Just dictator for life, which is probably not very long considering his age and health. Putin is his model for how “free and fair” elections should go.

      I have faith that our Constitution will weather this and also no Republican will sit in the oval office in 2028.

    Waiting for the merch commemorating members of the public stringing everyone in the administration up.

    He could pull a Clinton and build Melania as his successor. It wouldn’t change his politics, but would at least be a prettier sight.

      She doesn’t even want to be there for pictures, let alone actually do anything. Hillary, for all her faults, was actually a politician.

      I can’t look at her any more these days either. She reminds me of Roald Dahl’s description of people with ugly thoughts.

    Does everyone remember during Trump’s first presidency, President Xi had just made himself president for life. Trump brought this up at a rally and said “maybe we should try that” and the crowd cheered. It was never a joke. Everything he says is testing the waters to see what reaction he’ll get. Now there’s a group trying to get him elected to a 3rd term. I think a Republican congressman or two is also pushing for this.

      Remember the progression with his election denial as well.

      Jan. 6, 2021 and there were just a handful of plants who would try to object to the counting, before all hell broke loose, while the rest think they’re being savvy and staying in their base’s good graces while not taking flak by not denouncing it. Four years later, and they don’t bat an eye when the literal insurrectionists that nearly killed them are all pardoned, and nobody will even go on record calling it anything but Trump’s version.

      By 2028, expect to see lockstep party agreement on this, as well as plans to actually do it - whether allowed or not - already well underway.

    this is how he operates… he denies, then jokes, then encourages others to joke, then when they do he gets serious, then act like everyone was always serious.

    this man will NEVER willingly give up a shred of power.

    I have thought to myself for a long time… what would happen once people started putting up Trump 2028 flags in their yards? What would happen if those houses started burning down as a result?

      I mean, at LEAST throw a handful of pocket salt on their yard each time that you walk by.

      Maybe find out their names and give generic complaints to their employers.
