    Wanna make a bet?

    I want to remind you about all the things people said we were “overreacting about” years ago, how did that turn out in light of recent events?

      A bet about what? That Trump tries to become a dictator? Lol. I’d bet it all on that he won’t…

      If you honestly think Trump could even get a third term, you don’t know anything about our political system, or it’s history.

        Well you’ve already lost that bet, because he self-identifies as a dictator and Republicans submitted a constitutional amendment to remove the two-term limit the day after he was confirmed.

        So pay up

          Ok. But no, because that won’t happen. No one’s buying that. The real trumpsters i suppose love it, but it won’t fly with Republicans at large id wager. Im not into starting that. And that’s a far cry from trying to become a dictator anyway. You need to understand i didn’t vote red or blue. I think we need to fight the hole system, not each other.

        You appear to be under the delusion that laws and historical precedents are self-enforcing. Laws that are not enforced are meaningless, and Trump and his mob are lawless.
