And just to be clear on the former post from "The Times" -
“I think talent is what got her where she is,” Brown said, dismissing claims that his former girlfriend relied on her looks to climb the political ladder. “And she has been through the chairs: DA [district attorney], attorney-general, US senator and now vice-president. That’s an indication that she had to be talented.”

Typical Trump rhetoric, part sarcasm/part bad humor. Campaign fare, not to be taken seriously. He's not articulate, his audience knows it and seeks any excuse to react. No campaign "banter" should be taken literally...no matter which candidate is spewing it.
On the contrary. In all probability he's talking about abolishing the 22nd Amendment, which restricts the number of times anyone can be elected US President to two terms. The abolition of this Amendment is only one of the stated aims of the right-wing Project 2025. It's abolition would allow Trump to stand again in 2028. 😬

“And again, Christians, Get out and vote. Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what: it’ll be fixed, it’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you Christians I'm NOT Chirstian, I love you, Get out, you’ve got to get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again, we’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote.” ~ Trump

"my beautiful christians" really sums up the slave master ownership psychology he has with his constituents, who may as well be thought of as a bucket of extra crispy, with a little bit of Gollum's "precious" thrown in for cringe.

Jumping in here for a reminder: no personal attacks against each other. You don't have to agree with opinions other than your own, but being civil to each other is required. This includes posting hate- memes to stir up and hit back at those you don't agree with.
Thank you

Because of the checks & balances system, 2/3 of both the house & the senate would have to vote to abolish ....then it would have to be ratified by 3/4 of the state's legislatures. THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN---Hell, I'd join you in a revolution if anyone suggested they might attempt it!
Regardless of whether it's going to happen or not, that's to what Trump was referring. In any case, it's hardly a radical change. No such restriction exists in the UK, for example, so what's the problem?

You mean like these CONSERVATIVE memes which aren't even real but photoshopped posted a few pages back?
Gotcha! 😂
You can find excuses to de-prioritize all you want, Madame. But the momentum won't stop. These threads violate ZERO guidelines despite the posters who do.
And for the record, the memes I posted weren't deliberate posts hitting back at anyone or to stir up shit regardless of what YOU perceive.

Whatever's going on with the golfers, Kamala Harris certainly has the youth vote. 'Not since Obama swept into office etc. ...

Meanwhile, faced with the surge of Kamalove, and trailing in the polls,Trump and the floundering Republicans can only resort to insults:
