    I’m so thankful he’s near the end of his life. If all of this shit was happening when Trump was twenty years younger there would be no hope of getting rid of him.

      No worries, once these structures are established, there’ll be someone to step into the footprints. Being it Musk, Trump Jr. or some other tyrant.

        Musk is (thankfully) ineligible to be President, but yes.

          Based on current legislation, sure. But that’s not set in stone. Russia also had a term limit for its president. Until Putin decided otherwise. Remember, this will be ‘the last election’. Maybe Trump just announces the next king once he decides to go.

          SCOTUS will make sure that doesn’t apply.

          If not one of the Trump children, I wonder who Musk’s running mate will be.

          It’s okay, once Trump gets back in next year he will make changes so his pal can succeed him, not to worry.

            Yes, mainly because the way it was originally designed to work is that all the candidates would run for President and the one who got the second-most votes would become VP (LOL).

            Not sure about loopholes further down the line of succession, though. It’s supposed to skip over people who aren’t eligible, but what if nobody is eligible?
