Nice try, dweeb.

And it's current-day Boeing. So there's actually a really good chance.

but now, errr... I dunno, torture people in video games?

Oh my point isn't that waiting will fix the problem, just that there will be an "after trump", whether he likes it or not

I mean, Hitler was not in his late 70s, but his mid fifties. Chances were quite good that, were it not for the Allied invasion and his cowardice, he could've lived naturally another ten or twenty years (his health was shit but that was mostly down to drug use, and hey, Ozzy Osbourne is still alive, it could've happened), so yeah he kind of had to be stopped.

Donald Trump, the way he eats, you think he's going to live past his term? That he's going to be lucid enough by the end of it, to try and hang on to power? Nah, man, by that time they'll have convinced him to live out his remaining time (if he doesn't die in office) at Mar-A-Lago after endorsing a Heritage-Foundation-approved successor for the 2028 race, and hope his endorsement carries that candidate to victory. That way they don't have to try and remove the two-term limit. They kiss his ass, make him feel like a living god-king, maybe even have him meet with said successor on a regular basis to placate him into believing he still actually runs things.

Now, could they try repealing the 22nd amendment? sure, but it'd be far easier to convince an 82 year old senile narcissist he's still the BMOC pulling the strings. It also has far better optics.

Not really, just for someone who comes after him to hold him and his cronies accountable. And there will be someone after him, sooner or later, that will. It might not be his immediate successor, or his successor's successor. But people aren't going to forget about this.

I'm quite positive, whether he invades a sovereign nation or not, in some time -- be it five years, ten, or more -- we'll have our own version of the Nuremberg trials. Whoever is still alive that perpetrated or participated in this rape of democracy will be held accountable, someday, because all dictatorships fall.

The only question is how many people have to suffer before then.

"I'm not a Nazi, I just want to do all the things Nazis do without having to deal with the criticism Nazis get!"

bro I'm sorry but all the money in existence can not buy your way out of reality and the fact that doing nazi shit will get you called a nazi.
