How realistic of a goal is eliminating term limits?? If Trump manages to put all the right people in all the right places than can it be done? I like Vance but we would be blessed to have more time with Trump. Also, to add.. maybe it's my cynical nature but I find myself struggling to embrace Vance as Trump's replacement given what he candidly said about Trump in the past. People grow and learn but I keep imagining a situation where the head chef resigns and the chef in training burns the kitchen down.

You need to get over that, Donald Trump certainly did. Vance admits he grew politically since that time, and I believe him. Honestly, can you name a better successor to DJT the JD Vance? I can't, just listen to him, he's the guy...Vance 2028! Wink


I agree with this. Trump made an astounding pick with JD. Short video by Jordan Peterson about JD which is impressive.

No. We need more term limits not less. No matter how good a job anyone does, politics should not be a career, nor did the founders intend for that. There will be other great people that can fill President Trump’s shoes. If he does a good job, it will be that much easier to ensure that a like minded person can replace him.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Kash Patel, he's best buds with DJT, has the job of a lifetime and a super hot girlfriend to boot, the guys living the life of a rockstar right now.

Too bad ol' Droolin' Joe is shitting himself in his sleep right now, and won't have even a single clue for the rest of his hopefully soon-to-be-over life. He needs to hear this. At least "Dr. Jill" Roll Eyes will hear it. You're out of power forever and the stage is ours and there's not a fucking thing you can do about it.

The issue of, “But he said bad things about … years ago!” gets raised time and again about political and social issues. Which would we rather have, though, someone who through thought and experience reevaluated his earlier position and came to the conclusion that he had been mistaken—or someone who was indoctrinated at an early age and never gave any thought thereafter to what they were taught? It’s common for unintelligent people who are incapable of anything other than being unthinking loyalists to become cultists who cannot bear the thought of any criticism of their idol. And we see that all the time, especially on the Left. Yes, cultists vote just like anyone else, but the people we want on our side are the ones who are smart and insightful enough to support us because they have actually given serious consideration of the issues and figured out what the most sensible position is.

Trump is awesome and I really appreciate everything he is doing. However, he is old. I don’t want him dying in office like FDR. Also, he has done a hell of a lot for us already and he will likely have done orders of magnitude more for us by the end end of his next term. If he hasn’t earned the right to pass the torch and enjoy his retirement then I cannot imagine who might have.

Love it! Not sure which would be better: Just hearing the ringtone when the phone rang, or watching any nearby leftists heads explode. That would some Grand Master level trolling. Big Grin

I'm hearing impaired. Will one of you good folks please tell me what the ringtone is?

As a side note, I really wish that the X files had an option for CC (Closed Caption) for speech, like many youtube clips have.

It's Trump talking about winning. We're going to win so much.... There'll be too much winning.

That sort of thing

It would be terrible. Just because you (and I) like the the current President, doesn't make it a good idea. It would have been a disaster to overturn this Constitutional amendment 10-12 years ago, because we would probably have Obama as supreme dictator right now.

^^^^^^^if Trump can run again, so can Obama. I’m not saying Obama would win again, but I wouldn’t want to chance it. Better to pass the baton to Vance.

2028 is a long and short time away…in political and news cycle days, months, and years. I like Vance, but I am also liking Tulsi and Rubio. Trump is making a very deep bench going forward. Republicans have a lot of options while the Dims don’t. That is a very good thing.
