As I’ve pointed out before.

It's just a mutation of the birther virus.

Rather insidious disease in that the host has no idea just how bat**** crazy they are, but they can spot it in others.

Just out of curiosity, lets say trump does try some 'fancy footwork' attempting to hold the presidency longer then what is permitted...would those people that are against him, finally say enough is enough and step up to remove govt from power at that point (by force if necessary), or would most just sit back and wait for 'someone else' to do it, so they can avoid any type of risk, that could result in them being arrested or imprisoned?


This is what PATRIOTISM is folks, its stepping up and taking action if you truly believe the situation is that dire and dangerous for the future of the nation, the risk of possibly being arrested or imprisoned is just part of what makes 'patriotism' so highly honored and respected...its not exactly patriotic to just sit around justify 'non action' simply because you may be arrested in the process or you may loose your job, etc etc. The Constitution does permit the people to remove a govt from power if it becomes necessary for the security of the nation.

This guy obviously has zero respect for the Constitution or the limits of the power of the presidency, that much is clear.

Others including Cohen have said he may not give it up even after losing. This guy is a dangerous menace, a serious threat to democracy, and he needs to be ****canned stat.
Hillary lost, calm down and go about your day.

The OP, just like many Trump haters, literally scans the internet all day looking for anything Trump says and then looking for any angle to then bash him on.

This was clearly a joke, which the OP probably knows but figured he would use the dictator angle to use to bash Trump.

On one hand, if Trump didn't interject some humor into his speeches, the Left would bash him and say how Obama would at least use some humor (Obama used humor to bash Republicans). On the other, when Trump does use humor, the Left will bash him for doing that too.

The hateful Left should just be ignored. They will bash Trump regardless.

A guy with any respect for the Constitution wouldn't even be making jokes like this.

I find it disturbing a president would even joke about that sort of thing.

This is so disturbing. Perhaps we should ship him to some Third World country where he could indeed be president for life.
Uh huh...I guess memory loss is yet another symptom of TDS

Just another case of TDS, based on ZERO facts... Strictly an emotional response to some made up/make believe thoughts.

If this is true, please provide some hard facts that can be checked to ensure that they're truly facts, not some BS thrown out there cuz somebody's feelings are hurt.

Bro!! It's going to be OK... Just chill out!!

I agree.

And I still don't think he thought he would win, nor really wanted to win.

I think the two main reasons he wants to get re-elected are:

1. The statute of limitations thing.

2. Competitiveness re time served. Being equal (in time served) to two term Presidents (especially Obama), and beating (in time served) all 'one termers'....but I don't believe that that competitiveness extends to any serious desire to go beyond two terms, which of course he can't do anyway.

Yeah.. I'll bet you voted for the Inexperienced Junior Senator Obama because he was half Black and talked real pretty even though he was totally incompetent to be President.

Obama supporters have ZERO room to complain about Trump voters.
