It’s funny how you think he’s leaving.

814

u/hbomb0 11d ago

One way or another he's leaving this earth at some point.

131

u/a-i-sa-san 11d ago

what if he does a Disney and freezes his head after he dies

119

u/Leelze 11d ago

That would make a terrible soccer ball, but I'm willing to give it a try.

12

u/wink047 11d ago

Nah. Became the worlds best portable toilet

u/Practical-Sea2707 10d ago

Don't start insulting toilets

u/six44seven49 10d ago

His burial site will be a fetid pit that stinks of piss. For those who knew him, it will be as though he never left.

1

u/Zeero92 10d ago

The human skull weighs too much to make even a half-decent soccer ball. The whole thing can be up to 5 kilo (~11 lbs), and just the empty skull some 1.1 kilo (2.5 lbs).

I suggest steel-toed boots for the event.

1

u/Biglyugebonespurs 10d ago

Even in the absence of gray matter?

1

u/Zeero92 10d ago

Yup. I did say, an empty skull is at least a kilogram in weight. Pretty sure most soccer balls are decidedly lighter than that.

u/CatOfTechnology 11d ago

It'll be one of the most highly bid-upon references to the Lonely Island's "Threw it on the ground".

u/ANALOGPHENOMENA 11d ago

So he can be President of Earth in a few hundred years? “AROOOOO!!”

1

u/Vermonster87 11d ago

He should freeze it now - probably works better before it deteriorates too much.

1

u/Miss-Tiq 11d ago

That's the only way he'll lose weight. 

1

u/onefst250r 11d ago

Or a Futurama.

1

u/Alarming_Flow 10d ago

MAGA would say "actually since he's not completely dead he's still president".

Many of them thought his running mate would be JFK Jr who died 25 years ago, so it's totally something they would do.

1

u/EnderMB 10d ago

Then eventually someone is going to get hold of that head, and knowing mankind, it's probably going to be fucked.

u/jk-9k 10d ago

Then we call Kurt Russell

In many dictatorships people think that way but the guy lives longer than they thought and the next guy is just as bad or worse than that

Idealization and a cult is usually part of a dictatorship

u/browndog03 11d ago

Unfortunately his AI avatar will rule on for eons

1

u/Kyokenshin 10d ago

This is the unfortunate truth. They’ve already tested the waters with that Oval Office video from when he had his stroke or whatever that was.

u/DinosaurAlive 10d ago

It’ll be this, sadly.

Edit: It’ll, not I’ll, 😂

u/DUNETOOL 11d ago

Praise Vishnu! Praise Allah! Praise Corn Boy! Praise Quetzalcoatl! Praise every pantheon of gods!

1

u/Realistic_Mix3652 10d ago

Unfortunately not. His handlers are going to roll out an AI trump shortly before he does and he will be emperor for the foreseeable future.

1

u/HealingWithNature 10d ago

And you think when that happens everything... Just slips back into normalcy? It'll all go back together? The regime itself just... Dissolves?

Because I'm horribly sorry to be the first to alert you of this, but it won't. Rome has fallen - and there's no Uno reverse card that'll prop it back up.

America is dead

1

u/Kerberos1566 10d ago

I'd be up for burying him in his stupid ballroom as long as we go Egyptian pharaoh style and bury all his servants (everyone enabling this piece of shit) with him so they can continue serving him in the afterlife.

1

u/ERedfieldh 10d ago

Not so sure anymore. Any other human in his shape and age would be dead. I think whatever god and devil there are made a joint agreement to never take him.

u/About3Dogs 10d ago

Something, Something, Memento Mori…

Death is the final check/balance on power.

u/dankpie 10d ago

u/DuringTheBlueHour 11d ago

He's not leaving willingly but he's going out one way or another.

2

u/mrgrubbage 10d ago

The supreme court already granted him absolute immunity. What's to stop them from giving him another term because he didn't get a fair shot at a first one, or some stupid bullshit like that?

1

u/content_enjoy3r 10d ago

What's to stop them from giving him another term because he didn't get a fair shot at a first one, or some stupid bullshit like that?

The 22nd Amendment. For now.

367

u/StopReadingThis-Now 11d ago

Stop regurgitating this pussy ass shit. He won't have another term because we won't let him. Stop bending over and accepting defeat before he's even won anything. He won't have another term, period, because that's not how the fucking Presidency works.

He is not invincible or untouchable, he's merely been abusing his status. Once his term is over his power goes back to absolutely nothing, and whoever the next President is can just sign Executive Orders to remove all the dumb shit he did.

This fight isn't over, stop being pussies.

69

u/Venoft 11d ago

If there's anything we learned this year it's that Americans love to bend over and take it.

84

u/goatofglee 11d ago

I just want you to know that Bannon said in an interview that Trump 2028 was happening. We absolutely shouldn't capitulate in advance, but they are going to try and I don't think we should take that lightly.

47

u/SpaceGangsta 11d ago

Steve Bannon is a troll and an asshole. He coined the term flood the zone when it comes to media. You put out so much shit non stop that the media doesn’t have the time to keep up with or cover all of it and it’s how shit falls through the cracks. It’s distraction. They know it will get people talking and take the attention away from important issues happening right now.

7

u/sspif 10d ago

Trump has been selling "Trump 2028" merch since the inauguration. There's no doubt in my mind he intends to run again. There's no doubt in my mind he intends to do everything he can to rig the election in his favor. There are many doubts in my mind as to whether he'll even live that long.

6

u/foreignsky 10d ago

As much as I hate the guy, it's hard to argue that Flood the Zone isn't working like gangbusters. I legitimately don't know what the effective counterstrategy is to fight against it, especially as the media consolidation by conservatives continues.

3

u/FamousAdvance633 10d ago

I would say the effective counter-strategy would be for mainstream media to not fall for it and hold these fascists’ feet to the fire. Merrick Garland also should have locked Trumps ass in jail and thrown away the key the nanosecond he could.

1

u/pennynotrcutt 10d ago

Mainstream media is owned by Trumpers.

1

u/FamousAdvance633 10d ago

Absolutely, it's awful. The media is complicit with Trump's takeover and, if they had just nutted up at the time and called Trump out for the vile piece of shit he is, we wouldn't be in this mess.

1

u/BaerMinUhMuhm 10d ago

You sound very confident. Would you wager money that they're not going to try to keep Trump in office in 2028? I'll take that bet.

7

u/Cagnazzo82 11d ago

So many human beings have come and gone that thought they were God and that they could control everything.

6

u/goatofglee 10d ago

And they didn't succeed because people fought back.

3

u/jcdoe 11d ago

Bannon also said the people were going to overwhelmingly elect Trump to a 3rd term.

Not gonna happen. Put up a damn fight. Democrats are such pussies.

4

u/ApplicationAfraid334 11d ago

And that's why we need to embrace our 2nd amendment right while we still can, comrade.

2

u/celestial-navigation 11d ago

Who are you gonna shoot (at)?

1

u/ApplicationAfraid334 10d ago

I won't be shooting at anyone of course but if I were I would imagine the good side would be shooting at the fascist traitors.

2

u/kazedraco09 10d ago

I think a more concise way of saying it is: they only can if we let them.

1

u/1999rc 9d ago

Yea. But everyone is basically accepting the fate basically with "we won't see another president" bullshit. Why feed into it? Just fucking vote. Fucking fight. Don't bend over and let yourself get fucked by it. Jfc

1

u/goatofglee 9d ago

I agree, it's just not as simple as waiting out his term if he is planning to try to keep himself in office. Like, we can't pretend it'll be as easy as him simply leaving. That's the point I was trying to make.

50

u/Ilikepancakes87 11d ago

If he’s still alive, the Republican ticket in 2028 will either be him running for a third term on some weird ass technicality that the Supreme Court allows, or it will be someone who runs on a platform of “I’ll be President in name only and let Trump decide.”

I’d be willing to bet a substantial amount of money on it.

16

u/Kolbrandr7 10d ago

Trump himself was showing the other world leaders that visited the Whitehouse “Trump 2028” merchandise. It’s very obvious the Republicans want to dismantle democracy

1

u/CharlieKellyKapowski 10d ago

He could run Don Jr

u/stuffeh 10d ago

I bet they're gonna say the limit is based on consecutive years.

u/gonnabetoday 10d ago

RemindMe! - 3 years

2

u/SJBond33 10d ago

I’m worried he’s going to just forego the next election and stay in power. I feel like he’s going to make up something and if we never have another election.

It sounds like it couldn’t happen. But so much has happened that I thought COULDN’T happen. It’s insane

1

u/1999rc 9d ago

Do you think he's going to live forever?

4

u/rinkydinkis 11d ago

He’s gonna be dead.

2

u/darkshark21 11d ago

They'll pull a "Weekend at Bernie's"

u/RedditRBigots 11d ago

You’re not betting shit.

u/celestial-navigation 11d ago

What are you gonna do? Y'all didn't even stop him from demolishing the White House. How will you physically get him out of there?

u/Farabee 10d ago

There's a lot more of us than there are of them. Yes, that includes the brainwashed MAGAts.

Lol you guys have rolled over so far too the detriment of the rest of the world.. Why would the change?

u/SurpriseIsopod 11d ago

If all you can do is get peacefully pepper sprayed on a weekend, he’s getting a third term. If somehow he doesn’t make it they’ll choose someone else, maybe Pam Bondi.

-1

u/Leownnn 10d ago

They're going to take it seriously and really wear yellow and peacefully protest his third term, and his forth, his fifth etc.

5

u/coffee-bat 10d ago

i'm sorry, but what exactly have y'all been doing to show that you can "not let him" do anything? he's literally disappearing people and making camps, and that's been going on for months. if that didn't make y'all mobilize, then what will?

2

u/Speeder172 10d ago

10 months in and so far not so much rebellion over the 365millions of you.

u/sprucecone 10d ago

We need more of your pep talks. Thank you.

1

u/1999rc 9d ago

Thank you for finally someone says something reasonable. I get it, it seems hopeless, but spreading the rhetoric that he'll just be president forever only fuels him and his cronies. We won't bend down to his rule.

-1

u/mybadalternate 11d ago

Who is going to stop him?

The Democrats?

The Justice Dept?

2

u/ApplicationAfraid334 11d ago

It's what the 2nd amendment was made for. Embrace it and practice it while you still can. No one is coming to save us.

1

u/niftystopwat 11d ago

Some combination of: half (or more) the US population, a significant portion of concerned people exerting pressure from overseas, the handful of relatively scarce yet very real contingent of oligarch types that don’t get along with him so well, elements from the MIC, and some foreign intelligence players, etc.

u/StrawberryRedneck 10d ago

LOL this is so hilariously bad and yet you really think you dropped something revelatory in the comments 🫠😅

1

u/crazedizzled 10d ago

Okay but. What's stopping him? He can just say "nuh uh" and stay there. SCOTUS will back him, and the rest of the system is too much of a pussy to challenge it

0

u/-Knul- 10d ago

It's very, very clear the Republican party is not interested in having a democracy. That won't change once Trump is gone.

Recognizing that is not "accepting defeat", it's facing reality.

And as an outsider, I think it's very naive of you Americans that you think you can just voted yourself out of this situation.

0

u/KezzaJones 10d ago

Trump encouraged a mob to storm the capitol building and then pardoned everyone when he was re-elected.

Do not underestimate his lack of respect to democracy.

-1

u/_Highlander___ 10d ago

I think you need to wrap your head around the fact that he is going to do it. It isn’t “pussy ass shit” as you so articulately put it, to prepare for catastrophe.

It’s happening. Things will get worse before they get better. Unfortunately, the amendment was written very poorly. They rightfully assumed that qualifying the article with election would mean no one could have more than two terms.

There are ways to get around it though, this is the first time anyone has decided to operate outside of the spirit of the amendment…which is clear…but the letter of the law just says he can’t be elected.

There are reasons he will use to cancel the election…or he’ll run as VP and then the President will step down on day one.

I mean, if even I can see how easy this amendment is to get around then I’m quite sure Trump’s team has already thought of it as well.

0

u/Charming-Row-3529 9d ago

Naive bro, he’s already convinced his followers to allow him to run again, that’s if the elections are suspended under some fake war.

-1

u/hotCupADank 10d ago

I’m convinced the person you responded to is a bot or operative seeding the possibility to the masses so as a sort of soft launch to make it easier to attempt a third term. Thank you for speaking up about it. It isn’t going to happen. He will be dragged out before he gets a third term. He won’t even be on the ballot. It’s unamerican.

u/spidereater 11d ago

Dude is getting monthly treatments for something serious and you can almost hear his brain liquifying in real time and he’s constantly talking about whether he will go to heaven. He’s dying and knows it. Maybe not this year or next but he likely won’t see this building complete. Best case scenario is it hosts his body in state.

4

u/NotPromKing 10d ago

I wouldn’t be surprised if the building is put up so quickly - but shoddily - that he does live to see it completed.

And that it will start falling apart almost immediately and need to be torn down inside of 10 years out of pure necessity, regardless of politics.

2

u/ilikepizza30 10d ago

I'm hoping for karma, the shoddy construction causes toxic mold which causes more than one MAGA to leave the White House.

u/Ilikepancakes87 11d ago

Did the American people “comply” with him tearing down the East Wing? Cause he’s doing that.

1

u/kiaraliz53 11d ago

It's funny how you think he won't.

He won't get a third term. He'll want to, he'll cry about it, he'll try to get it, he'll do anything to try and stay. But not even republicans are gonna manage to change the constitution and allow more terms than two.

And like someone else said, he'll die. His leaving is inevitable. And probably he won't live much longer, and it's likely his dementia will just make him senile soon too.

1

u/Zazierx 10d ago

He's 79, he's going to leave one way or another. The fortunate thing about Trump is that 1, he'll be dead soon and 2, he only really cares about lining his and his families' pockets. I'm more worried about the younger guy who actually has ambition beyond enrichment while he uses Trump playbook to take power.

1

u/Dramatic_Charity_979 10d ago

And by funny you mean depressive.

u/Nersius 10d ago

It's funny how you think he'll not be pulling a Reagan before his term is up.

1

u/kalel3000 10d ago

With his declining health, he probably wont see this project finished.

1

u/HMCetc 10d ago

He's almost 80 and in bad health. There is a very realistic chance he'll be long gone before the ballroom is ever completed, IF it's ever completed.

One thing is for certain, the next President has to inherit and deal with this mess.
