okay, we need to have a serious conversation about the specific rhetoric chosen by trumps legal team, especially in regards to the 2028 presidential election.

Not really, whether Trump and co. care to admit it or not they were elected. And whether they care to admit it or not the 22nd amendment exists

They're all seditionists

also I should say this is obviously not the probable outcome of events; but I feel it’s important to discuss and consider given the severity of what has happened thus far, and how deeply we’re regressing.

have yall noticed how his legal team specifically says that he was “certified” as the winner of the 2024 election, but they rarely ever say “elected”? meanwhile, the verbiage of the 22nd amendment is specifically about eligibility for potential candidates based on how many times they’ve been *”elected”*. as others have theorized, I fear that not only was the 24’ election stolen, but that they might even admit as much in a court of law in order to justify an attempted third presidential term.

but they can’t risk such an admission of guilt during the term in question; it doesn’t matter as much towards the end of the term and they can use a defense such as “well, the states went through a review and certification process anyway, so even if he wasn’t elected his certification is still valid”

does anyone else share this fear? especially considering their potential plan to federalize the national guard in order to station them at various election booths during the 2026 midterms

but this is what I worry about. if they didn’t actually win the election, and there was indeed interference that skewed the outcome of the results, then he technically wouldn’t have been elected. that’s why I’m so worried about their specific choice of rhetoric, because if that is the case, and they decide to even prevent the evidence of such interference, it’s not like our compromised Supreme Court would rule against them.

and in 2020, their entire plan was to present an alternate slate of electors for congress to certify, despite the election results and true elector slates showing otherwise. if they succeeded in such a plan in 2024, would they try and petition the Supreme Court to permit a third term based on their own electoral fraud, wedging that minuscule semantic loophole?

I understand your concerns. In that case, I still wouldn’t worry too much b/c hopefully the public outcry/voter activism in such an unlikely scenario would be enough to get him out of office anyway

Ah that’s a great point and I appreciate you bringing it up. if such an event were to happen it likely would be an instant “wake up call” in a sense for the far majority of Americans, even a lot of his own base I’d like to believe.

Plus, think about it…even in the .01% chance that ‘24 was rigged, Trump still served regardless 😂 so that may impact things as will. With all that said, I really wouldn’t worry about this at all right now

that’s very fair too, i just don’t have much faith in the current state of the SCOTUS to actually uphold any semblance of the rule of law yk? I do see what you mean though. I appreciate your perspective into this🙌
