It's wild that this writing has been on the wall since at least before he was reelected, and it literally does not matter at all.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Not just midterms to worry about btw. One year ago nearly to the day: https://www.c-span.org/clip/white-house-event/president-trump-quips-about-canceling-2028-elections-if-us-is-at-war/5170008
During the war, you can't have elections? So let me just see, three and a half years from now, if we happen to be in a war with somebody, no more elections? That's good.
So, his administration is still sticking with the story that china took information from millions of ballots, but didn’t change any votes. How exactly does showing your photo id protect from that? What are they doing to safeguard our polling data? Oh, right, nothing…not even a slap on the wrist for china because “that was a long time ago and they’re a different country now.” It’s all just going to be a bullshit excuse for what’s coming from him.
I think everyone has been mostly peaceful so far because we’re expecting the midterms to change things. If he fucks with the elections, it’s not going to remain peaceful and he’ll use that as an excuse to use the military on citizens and jail democrats.
Americans, where is your outrage??
we’re too tired, poor, sick and shitting ourselves. oh, and convinced the problem is the immigrants or homeless or brown or trans folks.

Pretty sure he said pretty much the same thing ahead of the 2020 election.
We have a national emergency. And congress failed to deal with it twice, during Trump's first term. Sadly, I don't think that's the emergency he's going to claim.
donald is going to be a lot tougher to kick out of the white house this time...
