Your butthurt may be a bigger problem for you than Trump.@Politruk's statement should clarify your understanding. Trump cannot serve a third term, even if it is not consecutive.
His quotes have had many interpretations by his staff. He says things literally and his staff tries to spin it as a figure of speech. Often the staff look as clownish defending him as he does. Take the current 'we will take Gaza' statements his press secretary tried to walk back without success as he repeated them several times over the next two days. Talk about lack of communication.
In this case, the spin is that he called for his followers to get out and vote this time because of the race's closeness. He needed their votes to assure his victory during this election. His staff vehemently defended the idea that people wouldn't vote in the future, which was not what he intended to say as his remarks alluded to. The next election, by their interpretation, voters could stay home since Republicans would have a lock on the next election by wide margins. The fence sitters, they claim he was addressing, wouldn't have to vote; just the regular diehard voters.
His team said that he didn't mean no one would be voting in the future or that it implied he would be a dictator. It goes with his famous statement that he would be a dictator from day one on national television, which his team also tried to walk back, but Trump stuck to that line on television over several weeks, not retracting it.
Trump's a sixth-grade level reader with some dyslexia issues. He never read the briefing from the military, which has been well documented. Couple that with his psychiatrist niece labeling him a narcissistic pathological liar, confirmed by his deceased sister, and you get a volatile clown for a president.
There is so much wrong with the man. It is as if his base doesn't or won't accept the flaws. They seem to prefer burning things down out of spite. Crazy Americans, eh?
Whew! That means my karaoke skills are actually legendary!One thing about me is that I not only don't care what people think about me I also don't care what people think about you, Dolf or anyone, especially Ms Piggy. I never liked the clique stuff from the begining when I hung out on GB I'm an independent moderate who thinks you're all wrong. "Everything you know is wrong."
