Summary

The Trump Store released $50 “Trump 2028” hats Thursday, sparking backlash online as Trump has repeatedly hinted at running for a third term.

“I have had more people ask me to have a third term,” Trump said on March 31, claiming the 2020 election was “totally rigged.”

Steve Bannon said he’s exploring “five or six different alternatives” to enable a third run.

Critics on social media called it “insane” and a sign of “fascist” ambitions. Though barred by the 22nd Amendment, Trump could run again if it were overturned by Congress and the states. However, it would require a two-thirds vote of Congress and three-fourths vote of the states.

    Or Bill Clinton 2028 hats. They’re the same age, after all and the jokes write themselves.

    Bill Clinton - At least he was able to balance the budget.

    Bill Clinton - He’ll just fuck the interns instead of the rest of us.

      Bill Clinton sucks. His policies directly lead us to where we are today and what he did to Lewinsky was sexual harassment.

      I know you’re joking but I don’t find him to be very funny.

        Yeah, he really shit the bed when he repealed Glass-Steagall and opened the door for the corporatist hellscape we currently live in.

        Also, there’s a good bit of evidence that dude actually raped women. Clinton was my hero when I was a baby lib, I read his book and everything. I don’t think history will treat his (or his wife’s) memory kindly.
