1. What a riot....regular Jerry Lewis that guy,....

not.

[pangaia]

6. It is NOT funny at all. And he is deadly serious....

[Chin music]

8. I thought the sarcasm was obvious.

I guess not everyone got it. (Esp. Jerry Lewis...one of the lesser of funnys.)

[UniteFightBack]

9. Yes the sarcasm was obvious. nt

[Chin music]

11. Thx.

[pangaia]

15. I got it. :))))

[PoliticAverse]

26. No, he's trolling. n/t

[pangaia]

31. i think he is in fact quite serious about it....

laying the groundwork, etc....

but, yes, trolling also, as you say....

[PoliticAverse]

33. No. In fact I think he wishes he was constitutionally limited to one term so he could get out...

without "losing".

The reality of being President is that it is simply a burden to him and puts a spotlight on the details of his life
and business dealings that he knows he is better doing without.

35. He 'asked for it'. eom

[HipChick]

2. Hopefully his maker will see him before then

[sprinkleeninow]

16. Then he will no longer have protection of The Constitution

or The Laws.

😈

[pangaia]

32. Then the constitution and laws will not matter

[sprinkleeninow]

36. * in the process of 'writing his own ticket'. eom

[Captain Zero]

21. And send him straight to hell

nt

[LiberalFighter]

3. If he does that he would no longer have protection of the Constitution or the laws.

[misanthrope]

5. If he does that, the laws would be what he says they are.

That's the point.

[pangaia]

7. right reply...

[durablend]

10. "Constitution"

That's that thing lining parts of the WH sewers right?

[Brawndo]

34. "he would no longer have protection" Damn right!

I can't figure out why a population in the minority would push to destroy the rule of law when that is what protects them from the majority population. Congrats morons, a mob larger than yours can now freely eat you alive. I'm feeling hungry these days.

4. They can always

accommodate him by putting a desk in his prison cell.

[trueblue2007]

25. prison cell like this ?????

[Initech]

12. Dear God, don't give him any ideas!!!

[GoCubsGo]

13. Yeah, like his cardiovascular system is going last that long.

I'll be surprised if it makes it to 2020, let alone 10 years from now.

[nini]

14. I know mine won't.

the constant underlying stress can't be good for any of us.

[GoCubsGo]

30. Yeah,tell me about it.

[Ohiogal]

17. Just kidding about it

makes me want to vomit.

[smirkymonkey]

18. No fucking way.

Over my dead body. I'm serious. I would take one for the team if I thought that was ever going to be the case.

[Totally Tunsie]

22. I've joked (?) to a friend that if I ever received a terminal diagnosis,

I'd take one for the team and make a quick trip to DC. The only problem is that with my luck, I'd probably recover!

(About a year or so ago, a woman was arrested for ramming her SUV into a concrete barrier outside the WH. Had to call my buddy so she wouldn't think it was me.)

There will be a knock on my door in 5...4...3...

[smirkymonkey]

24. LOL!

We are probably both on the list, Tunsie! Don't worry, I am sure there are millions of us. They have bigger fish to fry, for sure.

[Stinky The Clown]

19. .He.Is.Not.Joking.

[spanone]

20. He meant to say 'in jail'

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

23. Just like he was "joking" when he said, "Russia, if you're listening,

I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing."

He said this straight-faced at a news conference (not a rally), and when a reporter asked him if he knew a foreign country couldn't interfere in our elections he blew her off. He didn't say, "I'm only joking."

Katy is Katy Tur.

[Doreen]

27. He is not joking.

Him-10-14 years, his evil spawn forever after that.

[Kablooie]

28. It's not a joke. He's serious.

Just watch, before the 2020 election he will do something to prevent it from happening.
Sure it will be illegal but he owns the attorney general and justice department so there's no one who will prosecute him.
Also being removed from office by impeachment is impossible So what has he got to lose?

The only thing that could put him in prison is to lose in 2020 because all his presidential crimes will be prosecuted so he will do anything to ensure he remains president.

[marlakay]

29. I think he is doing that to trigger people

He is saying stand up to me you *******.

I really think he wants to be stopped.
