3 years from now Trump will start a war and use it as justification to stay in office. Just like Putin and Bibi and the rest

Next US Congress elections are scheduled for November 3, 2026. Fat chance he's going to risk losing the GOP majority... if there even is a Congress by that time.
Who is counting the votes and which republicans are willing to admit they lost? Who would enforce this after everyone in gov has been replaced with loyalists? How many votes thrown out or people in prison who can't vote?
How much misinformation promoted by social media and news networks that he controls will be fed to people while other stuff is buried? How many ai videos or threats of violence will the opposition have against them? How much of comments online will be bots they control? How much would the world's richest man contribute or pay someone to be fake opposition?
Definitely vote but it's nowhere near certain that you will get a fair election again if this keeps up for a couple years.
Yes. No. Many. All. More. Everyone. 🐦.
I think you missed the point 😄
My bad, what was the point? Laying here sick, with major brain fog, and haven't slept. Just saying don't think they are worried about losing majority in next election. Sorry if my post was a bit much or missed something. Probably should stop doomscrolling and get off here lol
I don’t think a Trump stooge should be listened to about Ukrainian law.
Ukrainian law does not allow presidential elections to be held when martial law is in effect.
Just trying to set the stage for ousting Zelenskyy and getting a Russian puppet installed.
Correct. That was the subtext of me posting this, but I guess it would have been good to state it overtly.
What gives Trump the right to say this?
