  Yeah that’s what I was referring to. I saw that tweet a few hours ago. https://x.com/RepOgles/status/1938301392416084150 https://x.com/RepOgles/status/1938301392416084150

    This is very probably trolling and fear mongering.

      Everything conservatives and Trump do starts as "trolling". What you call "trolling" is actually "floating the idea and figuring out how to make them happen for the first time".

        Yeah, Trump was initially “joking” about trying for a third term. Now he’s serious about it. Who would have predicted this except for every single person who has ever seen Trump speak about anything ever?

      It's possible, though at this level I'm not 100% sure it matters if it's trolling or sincerely held belief, because it's a pretty clear and obvious statement that "even the citizens aren't safe". Also, he's a fucking politician. The country shouldn't be run the same way as KiwiFarms.
