Even more charitably, I think he was trying to say that after Trump’s 2nd term, all the parts of 2025 they like will already be implemented, they’ll be living in the handmaid’s tale utopia they’re looking for, Democrats will resign in disgrace en masse when they see how wrong they were, and their entire future is secured all because of Trump forever and ever and ever amen, so there won’t be any need to vote because nobody will ever challenge it. “Vote for me and I’ll solve all your problems!” It’s the bog standard political promise that every politician has made since the dawn of time.

But of course, since it’s Trump, he is bloodbound to choose the absolutely worst possible option to do anything, every single time forever and for always. So even when he’s trying to just sound mundane and normal, he has to do it in the most Trumpy way possible so of course it’s going to come out exponentially more racist just by default. He cannot find a sensible way to do anything. Doing so would literally cause him physical pain.

And of course (again), this is Trump. We could be trying to give him the benefit of the doubt because we like torturing ourselves, and then he’ll just spout out in some random interview somewhere “Oh, no, that’s exactly what I meant. I’m gonna officially nullify the 22nd amendment because the Supreme Court just said I could. I mean, I won in 2016, I already proved there was massive fraud and I won in 2020, and now I won in 2024. Why have elections when everybody already knows I’m gonna win anyway? Then I’m gonna make sure we go back to the 50s where the women were barefoot and pregnant and those damn <insert all the racial slurs here> remember where their place is in society. I told you I was gonna do that years ago, didn’t i?”
