When asked directly about the 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits any U.S. citizen from serving more than two terms as president, [Steve] Bannon pointed to how there are “many different alternatives” for Trump to stay in office, but did not provide specifics.

    Lol, the vast majority of Americans will never tolerate Kings, and we mean it. We’re willing to die to ensure it never happens here. I know you don’t believe me, so I’ll just say sit back and watch us torch our billionaire class and eat their flesh. You’d be surprised what Americans are willing to do to ensure No Kings. Its not just a protest slogan. We fucking mean it.

      I’m in Australia. We have a king and it’s no big deal. Thailand has a king and it’s no big deal.

      What you have on your hands is an imminient dictator. You don’t want that.

        No, I don’t want either. Call it a king, call it a dictator. They can both eat shit. Fuck your king, fuck Thailand’s king. Their continued existence is an affront to every human being that breathes.

      You already have a king, so there is that! But yeah I’d love to see what you describe. But dude, he tore down the WH and it’s all crickets.

        To be fair, I really don’t care about the White House in general

        I despise its current tenant, and it sucks that the add-on is gonna be a tacky gilded ballroom, but I’d be fine if the building got blown up by a space laser

      True, we won’t tolerate a king. OTOH, more than a third of us are more than happy to tolerate a dictator.

        That good old American exceptionalism.

        I mean I’m rooting for them, absolutely. Based on the current track record though, it isn’t looking good.

      we’re willing to die

      I’ll just sit back

      Willing to die in a seated position doesn’t cut it goofy
