Drumpf Says He is 'Entitled' To Third Term

Trump Says He Will ‘Negotiate’ Third Term Because He’s ‘Entitled’ To It

President Trump said Saturday that he plans to “negotiate” to run again in 2024 if he wins reelection in November, his latest in a series of comments that have alarmed critics who say he has little regard for constitutional boundaries.

“After that,” Trump said, “we’ll negotiate,” asserting that he’s “probably entitled to another four after that” based on “the way we were treated.”

Cohen claimed Trump’s affinity for dictators is the tell that he himself has similar ambitions. “Like what he said to President XI and like what he said to so many other people,” Cohen said of Trump’s musing about a third term. “It's why he admires the Kim Jong Uns of the world."

But he also does it to normalize the concept.

He needs his head handed to him in this election and then he needs to pay for past crimes.

Many, many more. Normal, patriotic people who love our country and won’t stand for this kind of thing.

I’m sure of it.

unless, of course, he feels he was 'poorly treated' and is a snivelling crybaby."

Yeah......pretty sure that's not what the Constitution says...

For obvious reasons. And that is only with the American people showing the true generosity that is our very nature.

Actually he is ENTITLED to die by execution. For treason.

I have reluctantly switched to being against the death penalty, not because some people don't deserve it, but due to the errors in its application...

But just this once, I will set aside my discomfort with the prospect of error, and GLADLY support the DP, in all its magnificent horror. If others are disinclined, I will also GLADLY "flip the switch", "drop the trap door", "load the barrel"... Hey, I'm flexible and am a quick learner.

I’m practically to the pitchforks and torches stage. He needs to go away quietly and let a real president take over.
