So, Steve Bannon said "You could drive a Semi through the 22nd Amendment."

Suggesting Trump will run again in 2028. Does he not understand what applies to Trump also applies to Obama?? Because between you and me, I think Obama wants that smoke.

Say what you want about his calm demeanor, but I know people who have worked for and around him, and make no mistake; when pushed, Obama's got that dog in him.

that fat, bloated POS would probably destroy the front end and do minimal damage to himself, after all, he has all that fat as a cushion, the truck would probably just bounce off of him.

meme-ification of this idea (Obama 2028!) might be enough to scare them into backing off. They've convinced themselves over the years that Democrats will never fight back, will always take the high road and will never stoop to their tactics. They seemed genuinely surprised by CA's response to the Texas gerrymandering with Prop 50, as if to say that only they get to break the rules/norms. And we KNOW that Trump would p1$$ his pants if he thought he'd have to take on Obama.

run for senate. He was barely there as it is. He would know a whole lot more about how congress works, but I don’t think his family would be very happy if he did.

Defer to him. But it is an idea we’re thinking about.

By 2028/29, Trump will be drooling in a wheelchair, or tucked away in a sarcophagus somewhere. Dream on Stevie!
