“I don’t care how, but you have to get out and vote,” Trump told the crowd at Turning Point Action’s Believer’s Summit. “Christians get out and vote. Just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore.”

“In four more years, you know what? It’ll be fixed. It’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians,” Trump added during his 70-minute long speech. “We’ll have it fixed so good. You’re not going to have to vote.”

    When people tell you who they are, believe it. Trump is going all in on christofascist authoritarianism. There will be no American democracy if he wins. People really need to set aside minor differences, participate in volunteering for Democrat campaigns, and vote blue. This needs to be spread wide and far via social networks, and any attempts to minimize it should be met with forceful condemnation.

      Trump doesn’t care about Christians or Republicans. The deal is, he gets to be the center of attention and above the law. In exchange, he does whatever the Republicans want. He’s too shallow, entitled and stupid to be passionate about anything except his image.

        The only reason he is running is to stay out of jail. He doesn’t actually want to do any work.

      I’m like 80% sure Trump doesn’t want to end democracy. He just wants more attention, power, and to protect himself when he goes out after 4 years. He said what he said here not because democracy will be over, but because he can’t serve another term as president anymore, and he literally doesn’t care what happens after as long as he’s setup well, so “christians don’t have to vote anymore”, since he’ll not be involved anymore.

      That said, the people he does favors for or listens to want to end it as much as possible.

        No offense, but if you believe that, then your head is planted firmly in your butt.

          I think you attribute more intelligence/planning behavior to Trump than he actually possesses. He’s an individual solely driven by his personal gain, and there’s not a lot to be gained for him by ending (the limited) democracy of the US, it’s too hard and dangerous. He might give some favors to people that actually have this plan (as I already said), thus essentially “wanting” to end democracy because he gives people that want to end democracy favors so he gets what he wants, but I don’t think that he actually cares about this goal at all.

            Stop right there. I attribute NO intelligence or planning behavior to trump. I now no longer harbor any doubts about the placement of your cranium in relation to your sphincter.

        If he stopped talking after the first paragraph then there is room for interpretation. The second paragraph about having this things “fixed” makes it pretty clear what he means.

        Hmm. Interesting idea. I’m sure the next sentence won’t be completely consistent with Trump wanting to end democracy.

        He just wants more attention, power, and to protect himself when he goes out after 4 years.

        Oh.
