    He's made the claim too many times to his maskless rally cult following to not be concerned. He wants to rule forever, just like Putin and Kim Jong-un.

    September 12th rally in Reno, Nevada
    “We’re going to win four more years in the White House. And then after that we’ll negotiate, right?” Trump said. “Because … based on the way that we were treated we’re probably entitled to another four after that.”

    August 17th rally in Oshkosh, Wisconsin
    “We are going to win four more years,” Trump said. “And then after that, we’ll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years.”

    Did the former Governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee put these thoughts in his head?
    "I'll be on @seanhannity 2nite @FoxNews at 9pm ET and will explain how @realDonaldTrump will be eligible for a 3rd term due to the illegal attempts by Comey, Dems, and media, et al attempting to oust him as @POTUS so that's why I was named to head up the 2024 re-election."

    10 Ways Trump Is Becoming a Dictator, Election Edition
    The closer the president gets to election day, the bigger the threat he poses to U.S. democracy.
    BY STEPHEN M. WALT | SEPTEMBER 8, 2020, 5:34 PM

    Trump now has every incentive to do whatever he can to remain in power, if only to keep himself and his family out of jail and to avoid losing the ill-gotten gains of a lifetime of legally questionable business deals, not to mention the millions of dollars’ worth of self-dealing he’s indulged in as president.

    Spoiler alert: If you cherish the core values of the U.S. Constitution (however imperfectly we have achieved them), and you want to live in a country where the rule of law still applies and the voice of the people can still be heard clearly, you have ample reason to be worried. Very worried.

    Her haircut doe.

    There's really no getting through to most of these Trump supporters. They've sold out all integrity, all credibility for the sake of power. As an American you always thought that kind of BS couldn't happen here but we see it every day now. It's an embarrassment. We may well be on our way to some sort of separation or fundamental change in the structure of our government. It can't continue this way with the minority of voters getting the majority of the representation.

    Troll example.

    Why should a minority of voters get a majority of the representation and what in the hell does integrity or hypocrisy have to do with that question?

    I hate to tell you, but there are a lot of welfare folks who support Trump. Wanting to vote for a leader you have more trust in doing a better job doesn't mean you are looking for free rent. There are plenty of us who have worked our entire lives, spent 20 years serving our country, and believe in helping those in need.

    I have healthcare from the military, but think everyone deserves affordable healthcare. Most world countries believe their people should be able to get affordable healthcare. I know people who work their asses off struggling to make ends meet. I know people who would drive to Mexico to get prescriptions filled because they couldn't afford them here. That's terrible.

    Many of us actually care more about helping those in need over getting richer by corporate tax loops, tax breaks and such. Many of us actually believe that climate change is real, and that environmental protection is a good thing. Many of us don't like how Trump bows down to Putin. Many of us find him uneducated, incompetent, lawless, reckless, and untrustworthy. I personally will not vote for a narcissistic liar who would let people die by the thousands as long as businesses and schools reopen. He said he would never lockdown again. His no mask stance is disgusting.

    Those are just a hand full of reasons. Don't get me started on Jared, Ivanka, and all the felons Trump has hired, or his profits off the Presidency. Nope, I don't need healthcare or free rent, but I will vote for a Democrat over anyone in the GOP. They all have blood on their hands, and are far more corrupt than they are good. They don't care about anyone but themselves, their wallets, and their positions of authority which they use and abuse to harm, destroy, and divide Americans.

    God, Trump doesn't care what anyone thinks! He's doing it his way or the highway.
    He's so bad ass.
    Etc.

    I have a weird feeling you are being serious, which is a scary thought.
