another term. He stated it 3 times. He said they have a team of people working on it. This was not playing footsie with will he or wont he. He was boldly stating it as fact.
Congress, rational republicans, and the general public should take notice and not wave this off as never gonna happen. They will amend the Constitution if they have to. Look at all of the law firms caving to him, look at all the top military personnel they are firing. There will be no on left to stop him.
We are in a dystopia nightmare right now.

Bannon is a mouthpiece for anarchy, he did not give us new information that we can act on. Only fear.
If we keep following influencers, we will start acting like Laura Loomer is sane .

(7,359 posts)Once the campaign begins, these guys avoid you like the plague and just make up shit about you. Engaging them now while you have the evidence for later is a smart ploy. They are all often too gleeful to tell you what they are going to do both on and off the record. So take that info and prepare for it.

Bill Maher is just looking for attention/ viewership at any costs verses valued opinions.. I'm nauseated with him having such members as guest.... I don't ever watch him any longer...DONE...put a fork in him.
You don't think he'll finish his term?

(3,516 posts)True.
And its not so much amending the Constitution as Trump is simply ignoring it.
The trick will be getting Trump nominated, getting him on state primary ballots.
The states control the primaries and ultimately the elections.

(8,588 posts)They will "fix" (using Trump's own term) elections,
via means that will render them meaningless. Their Antichrist told his disciples this to their faces.

(1,056 posts)Isn't that why they hammered "Sleepy Joe"? Plus Donald J Taft is already showing signs of cognitive decline. Maybe they want a puppet that they can use like they're using now but by then he really will be ready for the nursing home. I just don't see it. Plus they have to legit amend the Constitution which will involve blue states and Democrats signing on to this. They're the ones who created the 22nd Amendment after FDR. Good luck repealing it. It won't work. It will fail. It's not going to happen.
