It’s almost like Trump tried a coup to avoid leaving office the last time around.

    Worse yet, I am afraid that Trump would die in office, then VP Donald Trump Jr would become President for 2 more terms, then by the time Eric is ready to takeover they will have already held the Constitutional Convention that turns the country into a benevolent Trump oligarchy, in which the title of “President” becomes hereditary, just as the Founders intended.

        “Benevolent” being used in the same sense that China is a People’s Republic, or NK is Democratic.

      He’s already King of Trump Tower, and ofcourse “the bestest American”, so by rights he IS king of America and will lead “his” people accordingly. “King Trumps President in power” and all that, so he now just needs to cement his family line in the role.

      I’d find it immensely funny if he now already declared one of his family members as a running mate for VP position 😅

      Already can hear the lame excuse: “it is needed now because they are the only ones to be trusted to do their job, for the better of the country” (Ofcourse it’s convenient in the case ol’ Donald is incapacitated for some reason, the one next in line cements the legacy for the century to come…)
