Caesar cosplay meets dystopian fanfare.

The US constitution has amendments canceling amendments, more specifically the 21st repealing the 18th. Legally it is possible to repeal the 22nd, but the votes aren’t there… yet.
The New Deal was so popular that FDR was elected to four terms. The 22nd amendment was a reaction to that.
I think you are bold to assume their plan involved repealing vs ignoring.
Exactly.
“they can’t do that that’s illegal”
Who’s gonna stop them? The law ain’t doing Jack FUCKING Shit. If there is no group or individual who is both willing and able to inflict consequences, THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES
They’re ignoring the equal rights amendment. I don’t think we’ll see another amendment.
I swear, these freaks yearn for the boot, it’s so pathetic…
I’m trying to verify this sign was ACTUALLY that this event. What other evidence do we have?
The AI image really sends the fucking campiness. It’s hard to imagine that fucking bozo even living to a third term. I’m honestly surprised he hasn’t got sniped by atherosclerosis yet.
If he is still alive in 2028 I am jumping out a window.
I have never met you or know anything about you, but I’d rather have you than DJT
Why it’s missing a star? Directly printed from the ai prompt?
It’s not that difficult to clone a star with modern software…
they’re gonna give Alaska to Putin or something
Or California to Denmark
Uncritical support for this.
I know enough old English and some old Norse, I think I could get a Danish bureaucrat to want to kill themselves. I also approve.
Sign me the fuck up.
Tacky as hell
At least Nazi Germany hired actual artists and designers to create stunning and awe inspiring designs and artwork using quality materials (and no I am not glorifying those monsters)
MAGA just go to the local print shop and skim off any premade imagery and use AI to mash it all together on the cheapest poster they can buy.

Trump again raises idea of running for an unconstitutional third term
The suggestion followed a stretch of days in which Trump referred to himself as a king and quoted a dictator in suggesting that he was immune from following laws
President Donald Trump on Thursday again raised the prospect of serving for an unconstitutional third term, asking a crowd at a White House event whether he should run again and receiving audience chants of “Four more years!”
The suggestion followed a stretch of days in which Trump referred to himself as a king and quoted a dictator in suggesting that he was immune from following laws — all while his administration has continued pushing the bounds of presidential power.

CPAC relishes in Trump’s power amid push for unconstitutional third term
NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland - - Attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference celebrated President Donald Trump‘s whirlwind return to power, with some mulling a plan to keep the Republican in the White House beyond a second term. (…)

Kill the maga red hat Nazi party.
There’s historical movies and documentaries about this.
If he manufactures an emergency, then he can claim we need continuity of leadership. Hmmm, he wouldn’t…
Similar to how he’s claiming Zelensky is a dictator for not having elections? I have a kettle that I’m about to paint black.
I don’t think we should start criticising people or movements for being un-american. It feels nice to use it against the fascist because you are hitting them where it hurts but it also normalizes the kind of nationalism they use to persecute oppressed groups.
Regardless of that idolizing Rome is actually very American. The Germans idolized it too. The west loves its empire
They don’t even idolize the Roman Empire, they idolise a version of it that fits their views. Fascists always alter the past. Otherwise they would be having gay orgies 24/7.
I think it’s the “3rd term” bit specifically that is anti-USian, directly going against the two term limit written in the… constitution (?)
The US has always been an imperialist nation so this really is just a fitting crown that will mark the end of its long reign.
No caesars!
This looks fake. Any other pics of it?
I don’t share your concerns and am not going to take the time to hunt down another one.
Regardless of the banner, the push is real, here’s one article today and another from yesterday.

Quote from second article:
A new advocacy group, the Third Term Project — which has adopted a Caesar-like Trump image as its logo — is dedicated to upending the 22nd Amendment so that Trump can serve a third term.
When trump has asked about a third term, it has been jokingly. As far as those pushing for it, I don’t think it would pass. If it did though, he would still have to get elected again by the people again. I dunno I just don’t see it happening.
They’d have to somehow keep Obama from running, so they can’t just say “third term”. It would have to be jerry-rigged to hell to let Trump run but keep Obama out.
When a fascist “jokes” about taking and keeping more power, they’re not joking. They’re absolutely serious.
He wouldn’t have to be elected again. He lost the vote last time and still tried to launch an insurrection to overthrow the legitimate government and maintain power. He’s learned a lot since that failed attempt. He’s dismantling the government and the checks and balances by the day. There won’t be anything left to stop him in 4 years. He will not leave willingly.
lol, he didn’t try to “overthrow” the government at the previous election. He did the same thing Hillary did in the election before that.
