Being in the public spotlight for Trump is like alcohol to me. He’s addicted to it. So in his self-interest he could never retire because he would hate that life.

Lefty dreams that the long nightmare of Trump will vanish with term limits and senility. On Obama he largely followed the tradition of standing in the background after he was out of office. Trump is not going to do that. He will be in the White House weekly on giving speeches under a GOP administration.
We aren’t leaving. And honestly now we can’t leave.

I completely disagree with all of this. First Tywin is the one putting Joff on the throne. Killing Ned was a very short term impulse of formal powers. After that incident Tywin gave Tyrion power over Joffrey and charged with preventing Joffrey decision making.
Trump would have no formal powers. But he can still primary any Senator or House Rep. He can tank any Presidency approval with only a tweet.
You are doing dumb Dem shit saying it’s cronyism and loyalty. I back Trump because he’s fought for me. He’s the only one fighting to deport millions even if it’s too slow.
I will abandon Trump the day he’s no longer fighting for my best interests. That day is not today.

I like Trump. Mostly like the war. The I think it’s a good thing. This basically comes down to whether you are maga or your a I don’t like the Dems GOP. He retains power because a lot of people like him.
I own a Tesla. What do I care about fuel prices. And honestly don’t understand why any other car company exists at this point because they are inferior products.

Trump will remain the most powerful politician in America likely until the day he dies. You don’t literally need to be the one whose signature goes on an Executive Order to be the person where power resides. George Martin got this right. Joffrey sat on the thrown but the true power was Tywin. Whether it’s Little Rubio or Vance there power will be dwarfed by Trump and if it’s a Dem all eyes will still be on Trump though he will be less powerful in that scenario.
Why else would Dems still be talking about prosecuting Trump if his political power disappears when he’s not in the WH?

I mean “something suspicious is afoot” is factually true. Because it’s abnormal to take 9 days off the last few weeks of a major election. Even if burned out and legitimately tired you can sleep 16 hrs and make an appearance at some famous Texas bbq place in the evening for 2 hours. So suspicious isn’t a conspiracy theory because he was conspiring to do something.
I don’t even know what the GOP is crazy thing is about. A few people tweeted speculation? People do that all day on Twitter.
If polling and prediction markets are correct then the last thing he would want to do is a high variance strategy like concocting your theory of the crime. You would be doing the football equivalent of playing prevent defense which would be to do nothing odd, but maybe cut down on appearances to limit the chance of making a mistake like saying something stupid.

Between he went to a mental hospital and now NYT claim he was just at home with the flu any reasonable person would think the mental hospital is more likely.
Someone here I believe said he likely does a ton of pharmaceuticals while campaigning. The idea that he crashed on those feels like the most likely explanation.
Honestly what kind of middle aged adult even gets the flu for a week? I’ve had maybe 24 hours from being in a Chicago winter outside in the last decade. Just not believable flu for a week in Texas fall.
This war is existential. Win or die. That’s the reality.
I never agreed to making legal Hispanics feel at home. I believe in denaturalization for many. I never agreed to no wars but trust Trumps decision making. You are literally just making up your goals. My goals of course aren’t the entire movements goals so some compromise is ok.
Democracy is just a nice to have thing. Figuring out how to get rid of it if we need to has to be on the table.
