Summary
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon revealed that MAGA operatives are “working on” securing Donald Trump a third presidential term in 2028, despite constitutional term limits.
In an interview with Chris Cuomo, Bannon said, “We’ll see what the definition of term limit is,” suggesting they’re exploring ways to circumvent the 22nd Amendment.
Recently released from prison after serving four months for contempt of Congress, Bannon placed second in a CPAC straw poll for 2028 GOP nominees behind JD Vance, while maintaining tensions with Trump adviser Elon Musk.
My first thought: That’d be great, there’s no way he’d win
My second thought: Democrats would find a way.
Remember, the overwhelming majority of the country thought the exact same thing about Trump in 2016.
as parent intimated: Democrats will find a way. :-(
I’ll show me!
Who do I think I am, anyway?
Democrats, the masters of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
i mean let’s give Putin some credit too, his disinformation campaigns and bot farms have been a master class in manipulating public perception. that’s to say nothing of the Twitter/X situation
Don’t forget Meta and other social media allowing (even encouraging in Twitter’s case) rampant misinformation to go unchecked, dismantling the very systems they built to combat it during Trump’s first term.
That, and their “1984 was a blueprint”-level invasive user tracking that allowed micro-targeting voters with propaganda to discourage Democratic turnout while inflaming Republican emotions. Russia might have written the articles, but Zuckerberg made sure they reached American eyes.
They never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.
