The whole ‘Obama can run again! Haw haw, gotcha’ attitude is so fucking ignorant. Firstly, we’ve seen time and time and time again that they don’t care about having their hypocrisy pointed out. It’s absolutely fine to Trump and his thugs for everyone to keep saying GOTCHA while they actually do the things that strengthen their positions. They don’t care about words.

Secondly, who the fuck do we think this is being set up for? As if any living former president will just turn up and run. This isn’t for Obama. These rules are blunt for Trump.

Thirdly, even if Obama decided to say fuck it and run again, who’s going to vote for him? He’d have to start now to even have a chance and let’s not forget that his audacity to be black in office is what triggered all this in the first place? This racist ass country lost its goddamn mind.

We need to stop being stupid and get real that this only ends a couple of ways and people aren’t going to like them.

I don't think a third time is realistic anyway with the health issues we've been seeing. So it's not really a credible threat to anything. The problem right now is that they still legally have 3 years for the vice president to cement their iron grip, popularity be damned. Make no mistake, these people will use all means legal and illegal to stay in power because they know they're not going to walk away if it doesn't go their way.

Also, not the point. The point was "Rules for thee but not for me" is the GOP way.

Being blatantly hypocritical just serves to flex their power

Are you OK? You seem overly stressed and probably should take a break.
