Trump Wants to Be President for Life—and He’s Already Preparing for It
newrepublic.com
No, he’s not “joking” when he portrays himself as a king and muses about staying in office past 2028. Just look at everything he’s done this month.

Summary

Trump has repeatedly “joked” about seeking a third term, while making concerning moves toward authoritarian control.

He’s installed loyalists at the Justice Department (Bondi), intelligence services (Gabbard), FBI (Patel), and military (Caine).

His recent military purge removed six senior officers including those who determine legal orders.

These actions give Trump personal control over legal, intelligence, and military systems—potentially enabling him to declare martial law or invoke the Insurrection Act to bypass constitutional term limits.

    Here’s a lot of things but not a disappointment. Everybody with two functioning brain cells knew exactly what he is and everything is turning out exactly as predicted. Anyone who is disappointed by this has been wilfully ignorant until now.
