Reminder that march 15 is coming up.
Where the fuck is Brutus when you need him?
Almost got hanged on jan 6
I hate that this works
Caesar cosplay meets dystopian fanfare.

The US constitution has amendments canceling amendments, more specifically the 21st repealing the 18th. Legally it is possible to repeal the 22nd, but the votes aren’t there… yet.
The New Deal was so popular that FDR was elected to four terms. The 22nd amendment was a reaction to that.
I think you are bold to assume their plan involved repealing vs ignoring.
Exactly.
“they can’t do that that’s illegal”
Who’s gonna stop them? The law ain’t doing Jack FUCKING Shit. If there is no group or individual who is both willing and able to inflict consequences, THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES
They’re ignoring the equal rights amendment. I don’t think we’ll see another amendment.
The ERA was made controversial. Any future amendment will likely be the product of catastrophe. I imagine if one happens it will be because we manage to get out of this current situation and need to prevent it in the future
Beware the Ides of March
I’m trying to verify this sign was ACTUALLY that this event. What other evidence do we have?
The AI image really sends the fucking campiness. It’s hard to imagine that fucking bozo even living to a third term. I’m honestly surprised he hasn’t got sniped by atherosclerosis yet.
Few inches tho. Just a few inches. The hunter last season was terrible at the aim
He wasn’t aiming at Trump. It was all for that photo OP
I swear, these freaks yearn for the boot, it’s so pathetic…
What these freaks look like
They’re boot lick’en good!
If he is still alive in 2028 I am jumping out a window.
I have never met you or know anything about you, but I’d rather have you than DJT
well then you better hope DJT goes first i guess, because that statement does not meet the logical extent of that circumstance.
dont let the defenestration allegations hit you on the way out
Why it’s missing a star? Directly printed from the ai prompt?
It’s not that difficult to clone a star with modern software…
they’re gonna give Alaska to Putin or something
Or California to Denmark
Sign me the fuck up.
Uncritical support for this.
I know enough old English and some old Norse, I think I could get a Danish bureaucrat to want to kill themselves. I also approve.
it’s not difficult to clone a star with 20 year old software either
Shit drawing one by hand isn’t hard either.
With a sharpie.
This looks fake. Any other pics of it?
I don’t share your concerns and am not going to take the time to hunt down another one.
Regardless of the banner, the push is real, here’s one article today and another from yesterday.

Quote from second article:
A new advocacy group, the Third Term Project — which has adopted a Caesar-like Trump image as its logo — is dedicated to upending the 22nd Amendment so that Trump can serve a third term.
I don’t share your concerns and am not going to take the time to hunt down another one.
You don’t have to be a dick, it totally looks like some shopped meme.
I wasn’t being a dick, I was giving a straightforward answer. I don’t have a concern that the photo is shopped, I find it entirely believable, and so of course I’m not going to take the time to go looking for more pics. Even if there are none yet, it wouldn’t prove this was shopped.
The banner is not really the problem, shopped or not.
Now the right hand side of this on the other hand:
When trump has asked about a third term, it has been jokingly. As far as those pushing for it, I don’t think it would pass. If it did though, he would still have to get elected again by the people again. I dunno I just don’t see it happening.
They’d have to somehow keep Obama from running, so they can’t just say “third term”. It would have to be jerry-rigged to hell to let Trump run but keep Obama out.
When a fascist “jokes” about taking and keeping more power, they’re not joking. They’re absolutely serious.
He wouldn’t have to be elected again. He lost the vote last time and still tried to launch an insurrection to overthrow the legitimate government and maintain power. He’s learned a lot since that failed attempt. He’s dismantling the government and the checks and balances by the day. There won’t be anything left to stop him in 4 years. He will not leave willingly.
lol, he didn’t try to “overthrow” the government at the previous election. He did the same thing Hillary did in the election before that.
Even you don’t believe that.
Nobody here is going to play along, so I don’t even know what you think you’re doing. Getting “persecution points?”
he literally did, definitionally he launched a failed coup. At the very least an attempted insurrection.
He did the same thing Hillary did in the election before that.
complete disinformation, hillary contested the results, which is a thing you are legally entitled to doing (she later retracted that statement publicly) trump has NEVER once retracted his statement, he STILL says it was stolen.
I’m pretty sure it’s just another distraction and nothing more. Plus, he’s already pretty much a babbling idiot, he’ll likely be a vegetable in four years.
Just out of interest: how long do they honestly expect this idiot to live?
Do they need him to be alive? They can use him as long as he’s not rotting too obviously. I have a strong suspicion he already stinks.
Do they need him to be alive?
They doin Warhammer 40k over there in a couple years
They’ll do him up like Lenin
They gonna Weekend at Bernie’s his corpse
They’ve ahead had plenty of Congress to practice on so…
When it’s a president it’s called Second Term at Ronnie’s.
Not taking sides, but be honest, I’m pretty sure that was Biden.
Dianne Feinstein is the more egregious example.
What happens is is that these congressman build a circle of aids who handle all the real work while they campaign. Those aids develop working relationships with other aids. The more senior, the more influence they have. It quickly gets to the point when the politician themselves are just a figurehead and the aids don’t want to start over with a new one, so they just wheel their host around.
Trump is well into the category where he’s just being lead around by his handlers.
He can do 20 more years. Weekend at Bernies is also possible. No crazy scheme is off the table in today’s America. Trump may also just be laying out the red carpet for some even crazier lunatic. Maybe hereditary dictatorship? Elon? Nothing is off the table at this point. Fuck me and the bleak possible future.
They will “transfer his conciousness” into one of Elon’s bartender-bots. Pay no attention to the Afrikaans accent.
Once they force three terms onto Trump they can use whatever flimsy justification they have found to allow three terms for Vance or whoever they get to replace trump.
Given the last attempt failed prob a bit too long
Based on his observed mental decline, I don’t think he will get to finish his current term.

Tacky as hell
At least Nazi Germany hired actual artists and designers to create stunning and awe inspiring designs and artwork using quality materials (and no I am not glorifying those monsters)
MAGA just go to the local print shop and skim off any premade imagery and use AI to mash it all together on the cheapest poster they can buy.
(and no I am not glorifying those monsters)
You don’t have to glorify their beliefs to admit they were fantastic at propaganda and aesthetics. Birth of a Nation was used in film schools for decades afterward for a reason and that reason wasn’t that film schools were all secretly run by Nazis.
Can you provide some info about what film you mean? I only see results for the 1915 American film called Birth of a Nation. Which sounds pretty awful, but seems to predate Nazis.
Sorry, got my racist propaganda films that still show up in film school because they used revolutionary techniques in film making and are thus important pieces of cinematic history mixed up. The Birth of a Nation is the US one, Triumph of the Will is the Nazi one I was thinking of.
They still show both in film schools. It’s part of most film history classes.
More likely the film schools were run by jews considering the movie industry
First time as tragedy, second time as farce.
Don’t forget, he’ll have it fixed so good you won’t have to vote anymore.
Meanwhile he’s accusing Zelensky of being an unelected dictator… Every accusation is a confession?
He’s projecting.
How many people actually want to support this vs just joking about it “to own the libs”.
Not excusing either option. The joking option is just as bad as long as it looks like actual support. I just wanting to know how much of that support is genuine.
Trump is giving these fucksticks exactly what they want. I assure you they want a third term.

Let me speak from experience that there is no such thing as an ironic Nazi. Every single “bro, it’s just a joke lol” is followed by a silent “…unless?”
These people only tell jokes that are of the “punching down” variety. That makes them laugh. Stuff like this is wishful thinking, and it’s always “bro, it was a prank” to dodge ownership of it.
That’s how the party of personal responsibility works.
It’s a joke until it’s not. Same people that hurt your feelings and then say “I was just joking” when called out.
The Venn Diagram between people who actually support this and people who just want to own the libs is a circle.
Also makes me suspect that republicans have zero clue who they can run after The Donald. Why else would they even bother trying to mention having the guy in office after 2028? The methods to do that are either a constitutional amendment (they don’t have anywhere near a big enough majority to get one through) or unconstitutional means (scary, but also way more work/trouble than running a competent candidate and winning a normal election). It would be way easier to start grooming the heir apparent if they had any clue who that was.
