Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

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

[–] selkiesidhe@lemm.ee 1 points 5 hours ago

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...

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

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 35 points 15 hours ago

Nailed it here. it's not running if there isn't an election!

Thank you Trump for saving American Democracy™ ruthkanda-forever

A lot of questions being raised by my “I will not run for a third term” shirt that are answered by the shirt

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 40 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I think we should take this as confirmation that he's definitely pursuing a third term

[–] TommyBeans@hexbear.net 29 points 15 hours ago

Right? From the same guy, “I won’t enact Project 2025.”

I wonder what factions will arise among the competition for his fanbase?

“Who will inherit MAGA?”

“The strongest”

This begins the shonen tournament arc of the Republican party, where they all must fight to find the strongest fascist

[–] Lucien@mander.xyz 3 points 10 hours ago

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

[–] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 8 points 11 hours ago

To be fair to the liberal institutions he can't legally

Good thing that the liberal institutions are impenetrable against fascists

Horrible news for my AI generated MAGA 2028 red bubble store

"I promise not to start a fire in the Reichstagg."

[–] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 13 points 14 hours ago

He is not gonna run. They are just gonna hand him an emergency for him to delay elections or w.e.

[–] Finger@hexbear.net 12 points 14 hours ago

Coward shit, low energy, sad.

Very famous truth-teller, Dognal Trunt.

[–] opus86@lemmy.today 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

The Trump 2028 merch he's selling tells a different story.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 3 points 9 hours ago

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.

Still kind of doubt it tbh. He loves saying inflammatory shit to get a reaction and then backs down quickly.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 4 points 12 hours ago

So he running. got it.
