    Honestly, he’s never been a Democrat or a Republican. Even now, if you go by what the Republican party was before he took it over. He’s always been a Trumpist, nothing more and nothing less. He cares solely, without exception, for one thing: Donald Trump.

        Will he actually, though? Or just say he will?

        I think the only way that could happen is if it just happened to be something he wanted.

          I read that the project 2025 people were ecstatic since he delivered on like 75% (or more?) of their policy goals for his first term. Roe v Wade wasn’t an accident, for example

            I don’t believe that’s why he’s doing what he’s doing. Unless it’s like a sick compulsion or something. He’s a 78 year old billionaire. Why whore yourself for money when you’ve already got enough to last you a lifetime? I think the power and whatever is more of a motivator.

              He’s a deeply malignant narcissist. He just likes being called president trump, and is jealous of Putin and Kim Jong Un because they permanently rule an entire country.

              Trump can’t stand anyone having something he doesn’t, so trying to take over the US is his next step to being “the best” and in what he perceives to be the big boys club.

              Narcisstic people are motivated by some petty shit. It’s mind boggling but true. Just look at the shit Elon Musk has been pulling and how petty it is.

              Idk, ask that to every billionaire CEO giving themselves bigger and bigger raises. I agree that power is the main motivator, but I feel like the money and power go hand in hand.
