It’s April Fools’ Day. But this year, the joke’s not funny. Presidents used to pull pranks that made us laugh. Now, one’s testing how far he can push the Constitution.

#TrumpThirdTermNotAnOption Not.An.Option The 22nd Amendment was passed to limit U.S. presidents to two terms in office, primarily in response to Franklin D. Roosevelt's election to four terms, which raised concerns about the potential for excessive power & the need for leadership stability.

People and press have to stop asking him about this. He can’t run. If he brings it up responds with the law. Don’t argue. Stop it

If this were a horse race the odds would be a very long shot. The odds of an old horse lasting that long are not good. He is trying to distract. Keep feeding him oats and pat him on the head, saying “sure you will buddy.” Chasing a few golf balls works wonders.

He kinda has to, to stay out of jail. Think he likes the part time gig. Others burn things to the ground while he golfs, signs EO’s, does the occasional Oval Office rally.

I think that there is definitely a place for pranksters in the nonviolent resistance movement. They have transferable skills.

Are you a chaotic good gamer, a prankster, a culture jammer, or a trickster? Your time has come! Peer reviewed academic research has shown that dilemma actions are effective against violent autocrats and dictators. You have transferable skills! Dilemma actions are a form of nonviolent civil resistance. Successful dilemma actions require brilliant design, planning, and implementation. Good timing, teamwork, and knowledge of the cultural context are also very helpful. Recommended reading:

Is this just distraction from Trump's impending tariff kickoff party on 2 April? I am betting he chokes and pushes off the tariff until a slow news cycle pops up and he wants attention.

This is a diversion. He is a master at deflection. He does not want people to see the economic trainwreck, the protests, his approval rating nor his fascist buddies. Can we please focus? Stop getting hooked by this guy. Move on to the essential stuff; like the coup we are in.
