Probably family.

I do like his pope-killing record but that's about it.

When you make rules that say you can’t be prosecuted for what you do in office (fuck the SCoTUS trash that allowed that) there is every incentive to not leave office so you can keep doing illegal shit with no consequences.

cholesterol is gonna save democracy.

Then the smart thing would be to keep up appearances and endorse away.

Oh, I hear it. smart.

You mean if WE'RE lucky. That's usually not the way this shit goes down.

Said please and thank you.

Classic narcissist.

They deserve it too.

Peter Thiel will get his money's worth

Republicans and Democrats agree on one thing.... Fuck J.D. Vance

He also decided that an appropriate career move would be getting embarrassed daily as the whipping boy of a dimensia-addled pedophile.

A couch is more acceptable than small children though. Yet here we are...

Grabbed them by the pillows!

He might not make it in this term tbh

He could run in 2028, but many states would not put him on their ballots.

Not if Congress "suspends" the Constitution and declares him chancellor.

I think he's likely to not run again. Why run if you can just abolish the election?

And then there are the people who actually think he's going to run, when what he's probably going to try to do is declare himself Perma president

I think one of his kids is going to run in his stead, like Bolsonaro.

Yeah he's been openly suggesting a 3rd term for a while now. Selling hats and other merch. There have been multiple officials throughout the past 2 years publicly comment that they are looking for ways around the term limits. Every justification is some weasely attempt at semantics. Every criticism is met with 'he isn't serious' or some such hand wave.

Yet here we are. Some folks still pretending like it ain't plain as day.

You probably already know this, but at the time when FDR ran for and won 4 terms, the two term rule was just a customary practice. It wasn't written into the constitution.

After FDR died, Americans wrote up the two term rule as the 22nd amendment, and adopted it into the constitution.

Sure I think he will run again, but can you explain how he would do anything other than siphon votes off and guarantee and Democrat victory? Surely all the swing states are going to ban him from the ballot, and its impossible to win without them.

Then it is up to the people of America to transfer it violently on his behalf.

Oh man, no, 2026 is already in the bag for Democrats, we got the House and Senate - no need to even vote anymore, just take it easy and enjoy the 2028 race!

Precisely. I hate to say it, but I agree with Trump here (about it being too early, not about JD being terrific)

"It's too early," Trump responded. "I mean, it's too early. I think he's terrific. There's so many terrific people."

Homie attempted a coup to stay in power. I’ll be thinking about the next presidential election until he’s gone.

talking about the next election (2028) is the fastest track to acknowleding the lame-ducked-ness of the current occupant. I say speculate away.

I don't want vance at all, but I have a feeling this will at least be attempted depending on how things go in the elections.
