    A third term would not be off the table… this is how any other dictator started off… once elected, change the rules about term limits. Heck he might even want to rebrand the term dictator and make it a good thing

        Originally, dictator was just ordinary political position in the Roman Republic given to temporary magistrates to deal with state crises. Until it was abused.

            Like it or not, he’s about to be put back in charge of the world’s most powerful military and possibly about to crash the biggest economy. Plus the whole starting new genocides and supporting old ones thing. It’s kind of a big deal and you probably shouldn’t ignore it.
