I remember a lot of folks were saying during his campain "well he is obviously joking, he won't do that once he's president". Even Obama felt for it "The chair changes you". Hell, even I, for a time, believe he would mature. Or I wanted to believe.
Anyway, if he gets the chance, he will totally do it.
Just a note, he can't abolish elections because they're run by the states. Unless you think that all of these states will just suspend elections just because he says so.
If he weren't so old, fat and had a diet that consists entirely of junk food this would worry me.
Exactly. He could try it, as I said, but our decentralized election system would actually help us in this situation. The last time they tried to overreach into state election prerogatives with the farcical Kobach "investigation" into "illegal" votes in 2016 they even had the state of Mississippi telling them to go fuck themselves.
When are Democrats going to label trump? Treasonous trump or traitorous trump would work perfectly or would that be too offending for centrists?
Remember that amendments are just amendments. They aren't permanent. They can be changed. Even if fuckhead here is joking about it, if you care about it was a statute of your country, you need to make noise about it.
God forbid they draw a line in the sand for the conservatives to cross, "Just keep backing up folks, common sense will prevail, eventually."
And on that point, the constitution will not save us from Trump or some other fascist. They will ignore it and so far he's been enabled by the Republicans. There's no repercussion for him ignoring law.

He just "fixed" the tweets correcting the fraction and removed the direct @ to the random anti-Trump citizen with the Alfred E. Neuman Twitter handle...and botched the spelling as "Newman."
He did on several occasions. Googling here is at least one: https://www.cbsnews.com/video/in-africa-obama-jokes-he-could-win-a-third-term/
The presidency is different now though where the president is obviously above the law so a joke like this carries more concern.
The sad thing is, Trump isn't the dumbest president in history, he is just the one we can all see everyday thanks to twitter which magnifies his stupidity. I hope the dignity of the office can recover and we aren't on our way to a Camacho Presidency.
How anyone on this planet can rationally believe that Trump has the same grace and poise as Obama did. /headexplode

They've all been when it comes to wealthy white men.
I think the strongest power the government has to counter this, are threats and letters from democrats...which are all ignored.
The difference is one jokes about democratic electability and the other about not relenquishing office.
No reason to respond to it all. But, other Democrats should go nuclear on him.
I can't wait for the post Trump era. I think the world collectivly might breath a sigh of relief.
I literally can't wrap my head around being this stupid.
....or supporting someone this stupid.

When people ask why I don't think there's some shadowy cabal pulling the strings, I just point out that Skidmark hasn't been disappeared yet.
Maybe "skinny" is a reference to how little Native American blood she has and he isn't good at word choice? Like "diet Pocahontas" or something? Or he's saying she's frail?
Does he think Pocahontas was thicc?
This is the part of the mystery I most need solved!

It's basically the safest word he can use against a woman because calling her a bitch, cnut, whore, ugly would be obvious. Possibly means she is weak frail, sure he will get there in time if she is top opposition in the election.
I like to think he is desperate for a 2nd term and more because it's his only protection from the law, prison and going bankrupt.
She's 41.6 native Americans inhabiting a single body. A true gestalt entity.
I would just think a guy like Trump admires skinny women so I have to lean toward the frail interpretation myself.
Camacho was way better. He knew Not Sure was way smarter than he was and allowed him to solve the nation's problems.
Whereas, in this totally shitty timeline, only Trump can fix everything.
"so great looking and smart, a true Stable Genius!"...i mean,as a non-native english speaking Euro guy, i guess this has to be trolling at this point?
Or some bizarre self parody? It can't be real,can it?!?
He's going for the Putin record. Go for VP but be the real power in office.
