If he is then there won't be a 2028 election

@273kelvin You are so full of crap.

@Trajan61 Because he respects elections so much.

@Trajan61 How full of crap? 100%? 99%? 87%? What are the odds that I am right? and vice versa but what are the consequences of either path?
You say he will win in 24, I think not but I might be wrong. Bookies have it even with a slight edge to Trump. So let's say you are right and he does win. What kind of a POTUS is he liable to be? More vindictive? Less vindictive? ...99%?
Who are the guys he admires? Putin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping. Do you see any bastions of democracy on that list? ...87%?
He has already talked about suspending the constitution and arresting political opponents ...72%? How many times was the National Guard call out on his watch? How many times since? ...64%?
Ask yourself this question, If after he wins, someone in his inner circle came up with a way for him to suspend the 28 election, Do you think he would go for it or dismiss it? ...53%?
My late big brother used to say to me "How many chambers do you need in a game of Russian roulette to make it worth playing and for what reward?" Okay, let me explain. A good reason not to drive when you are over the DUI limit? This has nothing to do with your competency or control. It has to do with the consequences of a wrong decision. Loss of Licence would be a catastrophic blow and not worth the risk, however low that might be.
If I am only partially right and a Trump victory only results in half of what he has threatened. Then that will be bad enough.

@273kelvin The democrats are a far bigger threat to democracy here in the US than Trump as they favor higher taxes more regulations and bigger more powerful government. They want to censor free speech and a good example of that occurred before the 2020 election with the suppression of the information about the Hunter Biden laptop which would have likely cost Joe Biden the election. Also they want to impose radical gun control and many of them want gun confiscation by force. Hell the overwhelming majority of the people who support radical Islamic groups like Hamas and Hezbollah are democrats. They have also opened up the US border in an attempt to get more voters who will vote for them in an attempt to remain in power in spite of their terrible agenda which is destroying this country. So how in the hell do you figure Trump as being the bigger threat to US democracy??

@Trajan61 "They want to censor free speech and a good example of that occurred before the 2020 election with the suppression of the information about the Hunter Biden laptop which would have likely cost Joe Biden the election."
Can you please tell me who was the POTUS in 2020? Who had control of the DOJ?
Even if it was published dick pics and all. You have had that laptop for 4 years now. To date, not one piece of substantial evidence of A high crime or A misdemeanour by Joe Biden has been found. If it had then the present farce of an impeachment "inquiry" would not be an admitted fishing expedition and be an impeachment proceeding.
Oh, and the only POTUS candidate who praised Hamas recently was guess who?

@Trajan61 Even you must admit that it is a bit of a lame excuse for losing an election to "Sleepy Joe" because Twitter would not publish Hunter's dick pics. I mean Trump had 4 years in office, his record to date and his handling of a worldwide crisis to run on. You also had Trump on TV giving weekly COVID briefings that were often little more than political broadcasts. (funny how they were so less important after the election). Bear in mind that the incumbent has a historical 3 - 1 advantage over a challenger. Yet you "needed" Hunter Biden's laptop to be on Twitter to win? Never mind about Faux Gnus, NewsMax, NY Post, Washington Times and all the other right-wing outlets, it "had" to be on Twitter.
Do everyone including the GOP a favour and drop the laptop. It is a wet cigarette butt that you are never going to light.

@273kelvin It took Covid to get a sorry corrupt sob like Biden as president just like it took the Great Depression to get Adolf Hitler as ruler of Germany. Fortunately the American people have figured out that Biden is a poor president and his policies have caused great hardships and turmoil around the world and he won’t be re-elected in 2024.

@Trajan61 It took COVID to see Trump for what he is, "All mouth and trousers". A reality TV host at best, a vindictive primadonna at worst. A Mussolini wannabe, without the smarts to pull off a real coup or fuck off to exile when it failed.
Biden did not win that election, Trump lost it. Ordinary people just got sick and tired of his bluster, lies, division, ineptitude, overt racism and quite simply the sound of his voice. You might think he is God's gift but you are only 1/3 of the voters. Nearly half of Republicans don't want him, they see what MAGA has done to the party (just look at the House) How many independents do you think he will win over when all of the court cases start?
The only thing that can save the GOP from losing big time is the 14th Amendment and his disqualification.

@273kelvin Only a raving idiot would continue to support Joe Biden after what he has done in the 2.5 years he has been in office and apparently you are one of them.

@Trajan61 Apart from natural disasters, how many times has he had to call out the National Guard? Now compare that to Trump.
The first priority of any govt is to protect its population. Hand in hand with that is law and order and the continuance of stable govt. The division he sowed led to massive civil unrest, from Charlottesville through BLM to Jan 6th.
Trump killed hundreds of thousands with his inept and narcissistic handling of COVID. You needed a Churchill, you got a game-show host.
A lot is talked about Biden's age and mental capacities. It is difficult to gauge considering his speech impediment. But take an objective look at Trump lately. Give him 2 ball bearings and Bogart's voice and he sounds like Capt Queeg in the Cain mutiny. "Q) "Tell me Mr President what would you say to a female voter in the suburbs who did not vote for you in 2020?"
A) "I won that election. They proved I won it. There are books, great books, lots of books that proved without a shadow of a doubt I won in 2020..." and he went on and on...
The normal pressures of office take their toll on every leader. Just look how much they visibly age. Add to that Trump's impeachments and indictments plus all the trials yet to come. He could end his days in jail. That cannot be an easy ride on anyone's mental health.
This is the guy that you want with his finger on the button?

Let us both be honest with each other. If we could take both candidates off the ballot and NOT have a re-run of 2020. Would you be happier?

@273kelvin It would be best if both Biden and Trump were not running but seeing as that’s not likely I will throw my support behind Trump who was far better than Biden. The democrats leading contender to replace Biden is Newsom and he’s worse than Biden.
