Any takers?

No thanks. I saw news that one of his 'people' (can't remember who) has already watered down the whole "We'll get rid of 20 million foreign murderers who have come here from insane asylums", to just targeting the REALLY bad ones.

Funny that...

Let the mods change it if they like - either way it will be “Doomsday” not “Match Day” after the inauguration

Did you hear Trump has put it out there the idea of running in 2028?

He apparently said;

”“I suspect I won’t be running again, unless you do something,” Trump said, according to audio shared with The Hill. “Unless you say, ‘He’s so good, we have to just figure it out.’”

Trump said he can’t run in 2028 unless the GOP figures ‘something’ out: Could that happen?

President-elect Donald Trump, during a meeting with House Republicans on Wednesday, made an apparent joke in which he remarked that the GOP might want to “do something” that would somehow allow him…

And I understand quite a lot of his opponents failed to recognise that they are being wound up.

The trouble is you can never tell whether he's just talking complete bollocks, winding people up, lying - or being serious. He has 'jokingly' talked about stuff that then happens - so how are you determining that this particular bit was a 'wind-up'?

Well, for one thing he is talking about someone else doing it, not doing it himself.

So who is this someone else he referred to as “I”?

And also, we have never heard from these doctors who have said that he 'aced' his cognitive tests, and that they have never seen anyone as fit as him. That's all made up as well - so he'll just say 'I've been told I'm so good, and asked to stay on'.

he refers to Congress, or specifically Republicans in Congress. they'd have to change the constitution. they don't particularly like him so pretty certain they won't try, and if they did wouldn't have the support to change.

Well the additions to the circus that will run the US after January just keep coming

Appointed to run the nation’s Medicaid programme - Mehmet Oz, TV personality, billionaire family, pro-Trump doctor who peddled pseudoscience cures for Covid and sanctioned/promoted dubious weight loss remedies (sold by healthcare companies he has financial ties to) and who has been disowned by at least one US university for poorly evidenced medical research.

Appointed to run the Department of Education (or rather to gut it) and with little experience in education - Linda McMahone, co- founder of World Wrestling Entertainment and leader of pro-Trump Super PAC, having donated multi-millions to Trump’s election campaigns over the years.

Whenever he speaks or posts on social media?

Harris currently has a massive lead to run as the Dem nominee next time out.

Surely not

Why not? It's only the cult of Trump that stopped her winning this time around. IMO, like.

or (as he has done with other things) he's testing the water?
