That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Sure, there was the attempted assassination of Reagan and the fears for Obama as the first black President, but in those cases it was a lone nutter rather than a conspiracy.
How long can Trump crash the market before an angry billionaire decides to take him out? The remaining Koch brother is already pouring money into legal challenges against Trump...
Unlikely any bigger conspiracy or billionaire will try. They could wait 3.5 years and not have to bother with anything illegal.
MAGA candidates don't seem to do well without Trump, so even if a republican wins it's unlikely to be whatever this is.
If he is somehow allowed to take a dump on the constitution and get a 3rd term, maybe.
3.5 years assumes Dems have anyone who could beat him in an election. I have my doubts on that.
Unless something changes, he can't run again.
He just said there are ways and I mean he could run as vp and then Pres could resign etc. so yeah I mean he can’t “directly” run again.
Apparently, any and all blatantly false national emergency declarations just sail right through any checks and balances. Martial law is just as easy. Surely a fentanyl tweaker Mexican anti fa supporter will be accused of rape at some point.
I fully expect him to try to change something, pull some underhanded thing like the VP switcheroo, or even try another insurrection (why not, he wasn't punished for the last one? ) but as of right now he can't run again.
It's important to note that even in that scenario, he's limited to a total of 10 years. If he would take over from a VP position, he could exceed 10 total years as POTUS.
Whatever "limited" means in the current state of things is another question.
He is also be 81 by then.
Yeah, as if he thinks the rules apply to him, even the Constitution. Even if he were to somehow lose a heavily-rigged election, he would just pull a Maduro, and simply refuse to leave the White House. It's doubtful that anyone would do anything like physically drag him out of the White House. He would just stay there as the Dems dragged it through the courts, and then he would ignore whatever unfavorable decisions the courts make, and the Republicans in Congress would go along with it.
