Summary
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon revealed that MAGA operatives are “working on” securing Donald Trump a third presidential term in 2028, despite constitutional term limits.
In an interview with Chris Cuomo, Bannon said, “We’ll see what the definition of term limit is,” suggesting they’re exploring ways to circumvent the 22nd Amendment.
Recently released from prison after serving four months for contempt of Congress, Bannon placed second in a CPAC straw poll for 2028 GOP nominees behind JD Vance, while maintaining tensions with Trump adviser Elon Musk.
Of course they do, but the issue is that too much of Trump’s control over their base is from his cult of personality (somehow), not the plan itself. They don’t know how to replace that. Yet.
Musk is hoping to be next. Yes, constitution doesn’t allow it, but they don’t intend to follow it anyway.
The constitution also doesn’t allow an insurrectionist to be president, but here we are.
That’s why they’re so interested in making Canada part of the US. His mom is Canadian. If Canada becomes part of the US he becomes a natural born US citizen and becomes eligible to run for president. And this is one of many reasons we cannot allow ourselves to become part of the US.
They absolutely do not need Canada for this.
We are living in a post-truth world. The MAGA right do not care about the law, the facts, or even what is right.
They want power. By any means necessary.
FOX and OAN will run pieces about how Musk was born here in the states and was moved to South Africa to help run his emerald mines. They will draw up fake birth certificates, change birth records in hospitals to show he was born on an Army Base in Texas.
They’ll even find the doctor that ushered his delivery.
And the Right will eat it up.
The sad thing is Trump has the means to make all of this possible. This is not figurative.
This is the nightmare scenario. And Musk will not let go of power.
What are the rules surrounding recognition as a state? Does Canada need to accept it or is there some mechanism by which the US can just say “we regard Canada as the 51st state” and as far as American law is concerned it’s now part of the USA, even if it isn’t on reality?
Well the mechanism is American military occupation and attempt at submission. Their rules / laws don’t really matter much to us. But per their laws their Congress needs to accept our admission as a state with a simple majority vote, and then the president needs to sign off on it. The only way us applying happens is if they are able to install a puppet federal government here, and even then if that all succeeds they need to prepare for an extended insurgency.
