Im not even a trump supporter but last night he said he was leaving the white house after this term on live TV, so i think the whole trump-wanna-be-dictator thing goes out the window - no ?



"Don't worry, man who famously lies every single time he opens his mouth about even basic objective facts before everyone's eyes, says he won't abuse his powers, so there's nothing to fear!"

Also even going by his own words, what about his "dictator on day one" comments?


Not picking a side here, but didn’t he say if he lost 2020 we’d never hear from him again?


I think the concerns about him trying to stay on a third term are way overblown, but outside of that: you can't trust what he says versus to what he will do later.


He’s not the first leader of a democratic country to claim it will be his last term, only to have another term thereafter.


He would need to change the US constitution to do that.


he has proven to be a man of his word


tbf he looks nothing like the guy he was in 2016 and it's not like he signed up to a relaxing job
