The danger of a 2nd Term for Trump can't be overstated.

[WarGamer]

Let's look at the first time around.

Trump went into the job clueless... he had a lot of assistance from the RNC, people like Sean Spicer and he looked to Paul Ryan as an "ally" and in reality, they never supported him.

I think he even wanted to come across as "normal" at first.

He made some really STUPID moves (in retrospect) like making Jeff Sessions AG.

He also didn't fire many people in gov't.

Fast forward 8 years.

Make no mistake, from day 1... Trump will make exactly the right moves (for an authoritarian)

He will fire an unprecedented number of gov't officials in any branch that he has the authority to fire...

There won't be any Paul Ryans, Chris Christies or Sean Spicers to pull back the reins on Trump.

He will get HIS guys running the House and Senate. No Paul Ryan and MM that "held him back".

I hope the American people think long and hard before voting for this disaster in 2024.



100% unqualified partisan hacks at every station in gov't...

1. He'll be removed from the board one way or another...

Trump is a dying flame.
He is Guns N' Roses AFTER they released Use Your Illusions 1 and 2.
He is U2 after Achtung Baby or the Rolling Stones after Tatoo You.

Trump is fat Elvis sweating like a pig and doing poor renditions of the "greatest hits" at his shows.
In another 3 years, he won't be viable as a brand or a candidate and he may very well have died of natural; or other causes. The chances of him remaining in the catbird seat are slim to none and slim is at the counter buying a midnight ticket to Georgia...

His fans and ideology may try to stick around, but they are low rent Tea Party - no financial backing and a limited and falling number of true believers.

Trump will try to overthrow the government using these inane Republican governors and sycophants like Gaetz, Greene and Gohmert, but in the end he will do what he ALWAYS does - fail and claim victory.

Trump is going away by revulsion, rejection or rescinded life span...he won't be here past 2025 and if I had my wishes, the fucker would die today of a massive stroke.

2. Wishful thinking...

I think he's running.

There's no evidence for your claims.

4. Follow the money...

Trump is fleecing the sheep, but the whales are not donating to him.
Power is money and money buys power and Trump is leveraging temporal fame for status and that will not attract the money he needs in the end. Trump is NOT a rich man, he is a leveraged disaster in waiting.

His fall will be entertaining because while you can pay people to watch you ride an escalator once, you can't forever dupe the richest into handing you cash lifelines forever.

Bankruptcy is Trump's calling card as much as failed casinos, jilted contarctors and fraudulent schemes. Bankrupt pretenders don't make it to the next election, and the cash Trump has rasied to date is what he considers his to keep as his own nest egg / slush fund.

We'll see. In the end, the weakness in the system is exposed and a true totalitarian of actual intelligence just may rise up to snatch it, but I do not believe it will be the bloated orange menace. Let's - for everyone's sake - hope I'm not deluded.

5. We were all certain he could never win in 2016. You underestimate the corruption and

influence of his followers.

There is NO guarantee that he will not be back.

3. He wasn't clueless. Putin was telling him what to do and not do.

The CIA says that Trump was a Russian asset.

6. I hope he spends a lot of money on his campaign.

Because I don't think he has a snowball's chance.


I'd love to see Mar-a-Loogie go up on the auction block.

7. Unfortunately, if he runs and loses, he may be just as dangerous

1/6/21 will prove to be the rehersal.

12. Loosing IS the goal. He never wanted to be POTUS - still doesn't but he loves being a cult leader.

8. Muslim ban was out of the gate...

Never an attempt at "normal"

9. Trump has a lot of loans coming due and he doesn't have the cash. Hence the Greatest Hits tour.

I see him running as an independent and taking his donors and mailing lists with him.
McConnell will finally speak out against him if that happens but not before.

I don’t think he can get into office again but I was wrong before.
Never underestimate the sheer numbers of stupid people in the USA.
Go figure.

10. TFG fired many while he was in office. His Admin was a revolving door on speed.

Also, his first SOS, Tilden, complained that a number of key positions in the State Department went unfilled.

TFG also prized loyalty over competence and that showed as the years went. By the end of his term, TFG had surrounded himself with incompetent but adoring boobs.

And from what I see, TFG has not learned from his mistakes.

11. IF any GOP other than Trump steals the next election, we know who their master will be.

We may be rid of him shortly, but his cult will live on for decades.
