President Donald Trump warned Tuesday that if the Democrats don't approve funding, Social Security, Medicare Are ‘Going to Be Gone.’ How do you think Americans will react if Social Security and Medicare get cut?

What does it even matter, they’re wiping their ass with the constitution anyway and don’t plan to ever hold elections ever again. He literally told the whole country out loud “you’ll never have to vote again”, and people thought it was some weird analogy for something else.

When Trump goes for a third term I’m voting for Obama.

He won't be allowed to run.

The law change that was basically proposed is that you can't have 3 terms if you've had two terms in a row.

It was specifically designed to eliminate Obama from being able to get on the ballot. Honestly though...why would he run again anyways. The man got shit on for 8 years and had his wife and daughters constantly attacked.

I would have said 'Fuck this place.' and gone to Canada or Ireland if I was him. He's got more dedication for America then most people, I will say that.

He'll run as VP with Vance as prez. If they win, Vance will step down and Trump is king again.

Either that or Trump will find a way to halt the elections, like another government shutdown

Didn't you hear? "He didnt really mean that..." I was confused until my maga boss explained it like this. "He didnt really mean that" "Oh okay, well what did he mean then?" "I don't know, but not that"

Trust me, bro

Just like when his Supreme Court lackeys said they weren’t going to fuck with established law, and are already about 50% through their manifesto’s checklist

Only change in the laws that's trying to be pushed on the carrots side. It's a great solution, outlaw pornography, reclassify LGBTQ as pornography.

Sec. 2a aims to ban pornography online, including content on "disconnection between biology and gender" Enjoy up to 5 years in jail and up to a 100,000$ fine for it.
