Is that "vows not to run" or "vows not to run"?

Nailed it here. it's not running if there isn't an election!
I think we should take this as confirmation that he's definitely pursuing a third term
Right? From the same guy, “I won’t enact Project 2025.”
He's dying
I wonder what factions will arise among the competition for his fanbase?
it is such a fractious coalition, with the major fault line being between tech billionaires and the evangelical weirdos who regard the former as literal servants of the devil. but even that simple divide has countless fault lines within... the ever-evolving Q conspiracy brains, the fintech bros, the largest legacy capital formations (Finance, Insurance, Real Estate).
I don't know that any publicity-embracing personality in the field today can capture even 80% of those movements and withstand whatever sort of weird vetting processes they will use to prove the heir.
trump will literally have to pick someone and say, "this is the guy" to have a shot at holding something together, and he seems to be completely opposed to doing that, recognizing it would diminish his grip over his cloying coterie and the project itself.
it's going to be weird as shit to see various personalities try to establish themselves as the next phase, only to be outdone by how Democrats will completely blow any opportunity to do anything significant.
only to be outdone by how Democrats will completely blow any opportunity to do anything significant.
Oh I'm certain the Democrats will be able to put together a compassionate and realistic plan to actually help the working hahahaha I couldn't finish that sentence even as sarcasm.
“Who will inherit MAGA?”
“The strongest”
dies
This begins the shonen tournament arc of the Republican party, where they all must fight to find the strongest fascist
Probably would be Elon because he'd just pay the stronger fascists to level him up so he can claim some kind of ~~gamer~~ politician cred
Horrible news for my AI generated MAGA 2028 red bubble store
A lot of questions being raised by my “I will not run for a third term” shirt that are answered by the shirt
Thank you Trump for saving American Democracy™ 
"I promise not to start a fire in the Reichstagg."
type shit
Coward shit, low energy, sad.
He is not gonna run. They are just gonna hand him an emergency for him to delay elections or w.e.
no more half measures walter
He isnt running for President, he's running for Vice President before immediately Vance immediately steps down and hands the job to Donny cheeto himself
Very famous truth-teller, Dognal Trunt.
To be fair to the liberal institutions he can't legally
Good thing that the liberal institutions are impenetrable against fascists
Still kind of doubt it tbh. He loves saying inflammatory shit to get a reaction and then backs down quickly.
😌
The Trump 2028 merch he's selling tells a different story.
Eh. The only story they tell is "idiots will buy this shit." The merch alone doesn't mean he has plans to run, he just wants to keep grifting his mindless supporters.
He's not running because he's going to EO that there will be no more elections. Good god, I'm so tired of this cancerous PoS...
So he running. got it.
