By Felicia Sonmez Felicia Sonmez National reporter on The Washington Post's breaking political news team Email Bio Follow April 18 at 2:59 PM President Trump on Thursday joked about serving more than two terms as president, telling a crowd that he might remain in the Oval Office “at least for 10 or 14 years.”
At an event for the Wounded Warrior Project, Lt. Gen. Michael S. Linnington, chief executive of the veterans charity, gave Trump a gift to thank him for his support. After some laughter from the crowd, Trump continued: “I was going to joke, General, and say at least for 10 or 14 years, but we would cause bedlam if I said that, so we’ll say six.”
I genuinely don't think you media realise how dangerous he actually is, and how desperate he is to avoid prison. He wasn't joking
Give him a t-shirt that just says “Cheeseburger in Chief” & then point him towards a door that says Russian hookers. when he walks through that door & finds himself outside the White house... lock the door & alert Secret Service that an agent of a foreign Govt is on the grounds.
No joke
SelfImposedXile I just bet he would. Keep on avoiding indictment.
I don't see this as a joke. In the back of his mind this could be a very real threat. I think it's always been part of the plan for his Trump Dynasty and his kids. Don't underestimate Trump. Plus it will keep him from jail where he belongs.
He can dream all he wants but facts say he will be in jail or at home.
Vox_Democracy Egypt is voting on a constitutional amendment to extend the reign of President Sisi to 2030. Imagine what could have happened in the USA if Democrats had not won the U.S. House in 2018.
He wants to win in 2020 to avoid prosecution per statute of limitations most ending in 2022. If he loses he goes to jail. It'll make for interesting campaign slogans.
Trump can't do it because that would be in violation of our constitution.
As we have discovered, it’s something to be fearful of and must work to thwart.
Trump is in Trouble. Nobody Laughs and Jokes about the Situation he is in right now unless he's out of his Mind. He seriously has a Problem right now.
This would be a tragedy to the world
Only if you are not in JAIL Mr Man in the WH.
He’ll no!
I would like to see him gone in 2 more days
Ain’t happening Donnie Boy
How to drive the liberal press crazy. Tell them they’re irrelevant. And your not going to be stopped by there nonsense.
We had enough circus for this last 2 years.
Noooo. Show some dignity and resign go home. Try to live a normal live You’re a disgrace for the country. 2 years we paid a salary to you for nothing. The only thing you did is enjoy the our resources that we pay with our taxes. Shame on you. Wake up Americans!!!!!
REVOLUTION
It doesn't matter how many terms Trump does, he will always be a Failure.
One term is all your getting fatso !
We acan joke about Trump be impeached by 2020.,, impeach impeach impeach impeach impeach
compare his joke with the serious musing of the dnc to change the law so Oblabla could stay longer. No doubt, the source of his joke. Do you propagandists ever publish your shyte on anyone or anything else?
sorry but it's a seed that he's trying to plant and hopes it lands softly with his base. There's nothing about this that's a joke...
You are not king
Hell no, u must Go
NEVER!

no one is laughing.

Delusional, as usual! Surprise...surprise! obstructionist
He needs to concentrate on finishing this, his first AND LAST TERM! ImpeachmentHearingsNOW ImpeachTheMFTraitor
The real joke is anyone foolish enough to run against him.
Probably because humiliating Democrats in 2016 and again to come in 2020 is just too sweet not to do it 3 times . I can’t see why Dems don’t understand he is trolling y’all and pushing ur buttons with that stuff . Y’all take it seriously.
Terrible, terrible joke.
Yes, 2 separate parent-child in border crossings, EU, China trade wars, frndship with NKorea, POTUS firings, resignations.
The jokes on the country if people take him seriously...we better laugh.
I doubt he's really joking. He's ready for his time as a dictator.
These are not jokes. He believes them. He has made comments about wanting to be a ruler, a Tsar, a DESPOT LIKE PUTIN and like Putin he wants his people to jump when he says something. I thought we were a FREE PEOPLE
Over our dead bodies he will.
In every joke, only a fraction of the joke! And I would like to see your flat faces when Trump wins the election again and hear that they are there to mumble.
hitler
👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
Okay, I'm Australian but aren't president's limited to two terms in office?
So did Obama. Shut up.
I believe it’s American votes That will decide not the fake news‼️ TeamTrump ‼️🇺🇸
He isn't joking.
Watch out! His target is to be a dikdator for lifetime. America will hopefully resist!
That is advocating lawlessness and a clear lack of understanding of the American system.
IT AIN'T FUNNY!!
45 was right the first time: he is fu%£d!
It's a way to compete with China.
It’s no joke .
It’s possible... but would require a state of emergency to be declared nationwide. With all the chaos he creates. It would only take one retaliation to cause such an event. It’s possible... but highly unlikely.
Ok? So what
Not in my life time
I’ll be surprised if he makes it to one term.
He really is so revolting. No compass of truth or decency whatsoever. I find this “man” truly despicable .... (cringe)
He not joking it is you that is smoking
He thinks he's on the clear after the report came out. He apparently doesn't understand there's more to come.
'I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.'
Haha, you’re a one termer, no matter what your dictator dreams are
Good Lord. I listened when lunatics claimed Bush was going to do it.. I rolled my eyes when lunatics on the other side feared Obama was going to. Now, here you are hinting darkly that Trump is going to do it, when he is clearly joking for his base and trolling his detractors.
He’s not joking.
He’ll do whatever it takes to keep those cuffs, from the SDNY, away from his tiny wrists and lil hands..
GO AWAY!!
yeah, no
He may have to, since the corrupt government that pays you to lie will be dismantled soon. It's over. waposucks
It is so funny to see Amazon's little news letter continue to attack Trump. Please keep it up and 2020 is going to be a Reagan style landslide.
No
Pathetic...dictator
Nah, that joker isn't playing. He would love that one. Nah, get his ass TF out.
Please run, we got your back
Do you not know what a joke is
NEVER AGAIN!
Yup. That IS a joke.
Trumps abuse of his position will in time haunt him. His abuse of narcissism, and political criticism of our government will come to tear at him for lack of respect for the honorable men and women he has sidelined. He currently works to advance his personal businesses by Kushner.
Trump I wouldn’t joke. Copious members of his staff and outside resources continue to personally call Trump a Moran. Yellen who was on the Federal Reserve now calls Trumps economic knowledge creepily inadequately poor. His knowledge of Foreign Affaires lackadaisical.
He is one and done. He is only fooling himself at this point.
The Gas Light King!
He won’t even be able to string together three words by the time a second term would expire due to his declining, debilitating health. That or a massive heart attack will save us cause everyone knows he will never peacefully hand over the presidency.
And the crowd is heard chanting...8 more years!! 8 more years!! 8 more years!!
A low-vote president should only be allowed ¾ of one term.
I wouldn’t be so cocky about surviving your first term. SDNY is still working hard and Barr won’t find it as easy to suppress their work....
His heart will give out in 3 yrs
I bet you he’s going try.
A chilling prospect.
It beats going to the Federal Pen!
And then on to Don Jr. Pay attention folks.
There's nothing funny about Trump's threats of becoming America's first dictator.
He's in big legal trouble as soon as he leave the Whitehouse..
No thanks. I’ve had enough of this crap
Well, they stole more than 2 years of his 1st term, they owe him!
Trump will be lucky to finish one term.
*jokes*? yeah... right!
Can his Presidency be redacted?
The Idiot-in-Chief realDonaldTrump is a emperor without clothes.
Ohhh no... he is going to dissolve the presidential limit and become a dictator!!
That would be his only way of avoiding prison.
He could be right, many people are drinking the kool-aid
just puked again
Deal with it
He wishes, because he will be criminally liable for a raft of charges the day his presidency ends. Which cannot be soon enough.
Does anyone actually think that if/when Trump loses in 2020 he’ll just leave? HELL NO. Can you imagine this man sayin “well the best person won and I’m just gonna go play golf.” He’ll lie, cheat & steal...do whatever it takes to stay in power. This is how you get a dictator.
He makes me sick.
Not joking.
He should joke about two more terms. His first term is a joke.
All y’all taking this super seriously like he’s going to actually break one of the constitutional amendments. It’s not that’s deep lmaooooo
👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽
*psst* ... he’s not joking.
I'm so done with this GOP nightmare, SpeakerPelosi and SenSchumer RepAdamSchiff It's obvious the GOP are trying to spin this to exonerate themselves. They have to be thrown out of power. Whatever it takes. ImpeachTheMF VoteOutGOP ImpeachBarr
Good chance Fat boy will be in a coffin before the end of first term. Big Macs will do that to you.
More than two terms? God would never punish us with extreme prejudice.
If he loses in 2020 does anyone believe he’ll leave peacefully. Anybody?
Ass
“Whew, I’m NOT pregnant.” “Do you think it’s gonna be a boy?”
He’ll never live that long! His lifestyle will kill him!
Low unemployment, economy growing.
He thinks he is a Caesar.
He is not joking, but he will be lucky if makes it through one term without being able to put a coherent sentence together.
I hope he does
The “guy” lacks ethics to be President of The USA 🇺🇸.
Once again...we have a President who is ignorant on the U.S. Constitution!
Don’t you just LOVE a good joke😂
He's serious.. He's not joking
Lol he will be gone before 2020.
Funny guy
Omg
I sure as hell hope so no joke I think supreme court should rule
Can hit your headline huh?
Impeach this ridiculous old fool. And never ever ever vote for this dangerously corrupt and incompetent party ever again for any office.
Republicans owe the military an apology. Whatever happened to protecting us from enemies? Both foreign and domestic?
Next he will lobby to change the law . Senator Graham will be up for it.
realDonaldTrump jailtrumpnow A President cares about the entire country. A cult leader only cares about his cult followers. We all know what the con man in the WH is. notmypresidentever!
“Jokes”
He knows once he’s out of office his new home will have bars all around it and he’ll match his orange suit. He knows what’s coming. Rejoice now but we’ll laugh later.
So Donald you got jokes let’s see who gets the last laugh, now or in 2020 justsayin
I’m telling you you all might think he’s joking. Watch he will try and change the laws. Dictator
Trump 2020
We must get him out!!!
He will have heart attack before that. There is an old Hitchcock story about a wife murdering her husband by feeding him very rich and heart unhealthy food.
Yep. Go for it, POTUS Trump! You are the best President this nation ever got. You dared to make a difference and fought for our rights. When all others were just playing politics with our lives. Trump for Life President!
God help us. He's an embarrassment to the flag.
He will barely make four, he would be better off resigning now!
Says this to irritate us. Ignore the blohart.
First things first: Trump is 72 yrs old, his diet mostly consists of junk food and finally, the constitution does not allow it.
What alternate reality is he living in
Don't scare me like that!😐
President DONALD trump is having THIS TIME OF HIS LIFE, HE'S played THE news media, like a man possessed, THEY are his BITCHES.....inpeachment is out of the question.....mr.Trump,is untouchable, sad but true......
Ho ho ho. Two more days is unbearable.
I’ll move to a different country. He’s bad news
Good thing he’s old!
You don’t think he would willingly give up being the most powerful man in the world, do you?
Trump for lifetime President! 😁👍🇺🇸
Oh please leave
Over my dead body.
Defeat Trump- 1 term
How can law enforcement clap or stand behind a President who lies and is corrupt.
WTF?!?!?
What’s up Donnie t ? No balls today? Didn’t want to answer any pesky questions that are fact based?
God help us all.What will we call him, Emperor, King,or your HighnessHow about Traitor or Criminal or Asshole!!!!!!
RESIGN, you disgusting blight upon American History!!!!
Make Trump President for life.
He is joking. He’s incapable of joking. He has zero sense of humor
Media has got to stop being 45's bitch. He is not joking and you know damn well that most folks don't read past the headline. Therefore when you run a headline that says 45 jokes about staying for more than two terms you are colluding with WH to overthrow our Democracy.
He’s not joking 🗣 The GOP is now the party of DJT. He has several Roy Cohn’s. He feels invincible. At a victory rally he stated the plan is to stay in power for 17 yrs. He corrected himself and said 16. Then he said 8 for him 8 for Pence. ⬇️Then this ⬇️
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 in his own words...YOU'RE FIRED!'
He’ll be re-elected, thanks to the liberal, socialist press.
Washington Post might be next to disappear
He won’t be staying on past his first term.
Trump does not need to run for President. The Democrats and Rino Republicans are DONE, say bye bye since tribunals will begin
Haha he loves to troll msm. So fun to watch you’ll freak out lol
He has a few indictments waiting for him in private life.
Sick man
2024 will be trump junior
He can't. This country won't last that long under him.
I'm not laughing - guess I don't get authoritarian 'humor'
I think Kenya’s president Obama started saying it first. He is still traveling the world acting as the universal President.
Dude will be dead, he’s old and unhealthy af
Jokester
NEVER.
Not a joke. Not a joke at all.
Many a true word is spoken in jest. tRump is not joking. We must watch this man closely, all his words and actions point to being a dictator. He see the country as one of his businesses and wants to be in charge forever.
Sorry, but that would indicate you are a dictator. Is that what you want to be really? Folks this is not ok.
Please. NO,
I belive he will be re-elected, because he is the last president of that nation, there wont be more. This is not a conspiracy theory or something like that. A word describe him: Nabucodonosor.
Good luck with that. The Constitution prohibits that. Although McConnell will continue to roll over and play dead. And the GOP will toe his line
Oh no you don’t! You’ve been caught. No getting out of this. Impeachment is coming your way😃
JOKE?.. that would be a NIGHTMARE FOR AMERICANS ..
Hes not joking! Impeach the!crook!
Why do you think he's joking?
Dear military, I know you’re watching this. Please don’t let him do this. For the sake of your friends, families, fellow countryman, and all you hold dear and sacred about America, don’t let him become a dictator in the United States. We aren’t perfect, but we aren’t this either.
The truth spoken in jest.
He needs to go now!
One is too many
Feed him lots of hamberders and the problem will solve itself! Its called a clogged jugular 🤣🤣
Dream on loser
Don't you believe the SOB is joking when he talks about staying on for more than two terms.
He ain’t joking. Unfortunately he will get re-elected as his base thinks he’s victorious in this investigation fueling them even more. GOP is still behinf him. Nothing will happen even though the report shows that he committed crimes. And dems don’t seam to be unified...
Are you sure he was joking?
Not sure that's a joke. He's envious of his peers, Xi, Kim, Putin, MBS, all lifers.
And Putin, McTurtle, Judge Keg-n-all and FuBarr will make this happen.
Yeah that’s hilarious great joke we love it
C’mon all McDonald’s diet, do ya thing.
Pres. Trump, the report means nothing , the people know that you pulled off a coup the legal way , with help from those that will get money and those that will undermine the country for their reasons. You will be voted out of office . VOTING that's the key.
I don’t think he’s REALLY joking and unless and until you start covering his authoritarian white nationalist intent folks will think this is all a”joke”...
God help us all!
Good bye
It’s the only way he stays out of prison
Geezuz! The guy does not joke. He has no comedic timing or ability whatsoever. He is not funny in any way, ever. If he makes anyone laugh those people are depraved and have depraved, reprehensible, dark, sick & cruel ideas of what's funny. Just like Trump.
He’d end up gone before that happened
Yeah, if by joking you mean like someone hurls insults you via text then adds LOL at the end then I guess he's joking.🙄😑
He puts it out there as a “joke” to normalize it and get people thinking about it. This lays the ground for seriously pressing the issue later. 🤨
He hasn't been President 1 term .US doesn't have one yet
'jokes'
Chump will try to change the constitution.
Get ur a shit together Dems....u dont want chump as our Ruler cuz He does not want to govern. He wants to be king. And an evil one to boot.
bradley7268
Impeach theSOB
Jokes. You are a mess
Why not he's way better than previous ones.
He aint joking, he knows that latest when he’s out of the WH he’ll be jailed. This will get ugly.
In the spirit of Easter - he can go suck an egg. The report only solidifies my opinion of him - he's not worthy of the office.
This is scary. I have no doubt trump and his minions will do everything to declare 2020 elections invalid. He will then claim the nation in danger, declare martial law and have his supporters rush forward with their weapons to defend the Republic. It will be over in a flash
Dream on Pvt. Bonespurs.
Over our dead Democracy...
That’s the thing really he’s not kidding
He’ll be lucky to finish one term
It’s no joke.
TraitorTrump DepartmentOfInjustice
So? Obama did that regularly
Horrifying!
Fat chance. realDonaldTrump will be lucky to make it to 2020. TrumpIsADisgrace
Mmm hmmm...
Don't count all your chicken untill all the eggs hatch.
He’s. Not. Joking. He never jokes.
RESIGNtrump
He never jokes.
Just like for
'Jokes'
There is but one thing to do if we want to put an end to all this nonsense. We must make sure the House reverts back to the control of Republicans. We must vote out every Democrat up for re-election.
Anybody else think it’s going to take a civil war to get this turd out of the White House?
He plans to never leave because he's toast once he does. This ends one way reasonably but Congress won't do it.
Ummmmm....No.
He’s not kidding!!!!!
You realize he’s not joking.
How do you see yourself in 10 years Donnie? And America? - And I'm NOT joking!
When will WaPo learn it's lesson for spewing their Anti-America rhetoric? Hoping the Sandman lawsuit puts them out of business. EnemyOfThePeople
Because you guys are easy to trigger.
It's hilarious that Trump can't quickly figure out 4 times 3 is 12.
Abraham Lincoln saved the union and Donald Trump is killing it, slowly killing it by tweets.
I’m sure it’s not a joke.
He still has one foot in jail. Don’t listen to the bluster
billmaher 👀👀👀
No.
👏👏👏🦅❤️🇺🇸
Dictator MAGA
Never did take an American history class did he?
ImpeachTrump SpeakerPelosi This will be your only chance.
OBAMA DEEP STATE FBI & DOJ were tasked with the COUP straight from the White House. Guess it would be OK for Trump to do same for 2020 DEMOCRATS like OBAMA did?
I’d still vote for him
Good news for the Post! Without Trump you will have nothing to talk about and will go out of business. You don’t even remember how to do real journalism.
Pretty confident that he’s going to win two terms there, isn’t he?
Yes maga
Obama made the same jokes. Condemn both or reveal your agenda.
I'm am convinced that when he loses in 2020, he will claim the election was invalid and declare himself the rightful winner. He will need to be carried out like Assange. Hopefully in cuffs with a bag over his head....
The guys behind him do not look thrilled.
Out.of.his.mind!
This ain’t Russia unfortunately for you even though they helped you get elected ....
realDonaldTrump , I sincerely hope you won't be POTUS for more than two terms as you have serious f***ed up the country already with your incompetence.
Knock knock Whose there WP WP who WP IS A JOKE! Some of the things this wanabe king says is NOT a fucking joke🤨
In his dreams 2020 the people will vote him out.
This dude is a CRIMINAL FAKE PRESIDENT!!!
Like Obama said.
Spoiler alert: he's not joking. I only hope he drops dead so he can't.
Someone tell me if an autocrat is better than a socialist? I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around Trump for more than one term let alone 2 or more.
He’s Not Joking Impeachment Now !
Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance
IMPEACHMENT NOW
He is so good at getting under the thin skin of Democrats and journalists.
In your dreams.
BELIEVE HIM!!!
25th amendment y'all.
Neverrrrrr
He’s not healthy enough to make it happen!
It's not like Obama didn't joke about it either.
He is serious.
Hell No He must Go
He’s not joking 🙃
ONE TERM PREZ
Yes he will win 2020
That because he lies!!!
Didn’t Obama as well? Constitution and even conservatives wouldn’t allow
realDonaldTrump you are the joke.
I don’t think he’s joking.
Saturated fat, obesity and a hate filled heart may have other ideas.
Well it looks like the only way he’s staying out of jail 🤣
When pigs fly. Criminal through and through.
NO WAY
Great love it
Oh my god; jokes!!!😱
The problem: Right now, 1/3 of America is justifying, defending, & celebrating horrible. Sanctioning, funding, claiming that horrible speaks for you. You are letting horrible lead you & represent you in the world, to steward the futures of your children. It's your mess, fix it!
F that noise
POS!!
har......
MAYBE THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS WANT T BIG DONALD TO STAY ON A COUPLE OF EXTRA TERMS IN ORDER TO CLEAN OUT ALL T = RIFF RAFF OUT OF T PEOPLE'S WHITEHOUSE=💉 DRUG 💉 TESTING ON ELECTED OFFICIALS, OR SEXUAL FAVORS SLUSH FUND, GOD BLESS T BIG DONALD GOD BLESS AMERICA,
“Many a truth is spoken in jest.” You say “joked” but I hear “threatened”.
A president who doesn't respect the presidency is dangerous.
Of course. Why not? He gets away with everything else.
Nononononononononononono....and NO
He isn't joking. It is his only way of staying out of legal jeopardy. He will need to be removed.
He is going to make it happen. He will have a war or something so he can stay.
Pay attention. He means it.
If he wasn’t as Mad as a Box of Frogs - Trump would be a joke. Mueller revealed 10 episodes of obstruction and wanted Congress to decide—not Barr. God Bless America! 25thAmendmentNow
Hell yeah.
Excuse me, I have to be excused to go vomit.
972_834 He's confusing that with upcoming jail time.
Do you really believe the wannabe dictator is joking?
He knows there’s charges coming the second he leaves office. He will not go peacefully.
Just more proof he has no FN idea what The Constitution says.
God forbid😒✊💥⚡🌪🌩🌀🔊:'(
Very legal and very cool
You know damned well that The Orange Evil is not joking!
He is not joking 🙃
jokes? like 'russia if you're listening...'?
He’s taking his cues from Putin and Kim Jon... in training...
Joke is the key word ...
put everything else aside—he’s heard of saturated fat and cholesterol, right? 🤔
So what? Are Presidents not allowed to have a sense of humor?
Classic crime boss stuff ... y’all woke yet!
After telling us that Obama wanted a third term (all lies).
Trumps actions and words show him to be wanna-be-dictator from a Banana Republic or just a mobster.
HE SHOULD LIVE SO LONG!! HA! HA! HA!😆😆😆😆😆
He should. Until all corruption in DC is gone. Including you FakeNews
IMPEACH This Criminal!!! He’s a Total Fraud!!!
Can you report actual news please?
WHAT!
We The People are NOT laughing!
realDonaldTrump I’d say your a$& is grass and the American people are gonna be lawnmowers in 2020. Who knows, maybe the GOP will turn against you and do the right thing for their country now that the report is out.
You will be lucky if you make to the end of the month or week.
Once again words mean something. Not something to joke about.
That’s not a joke! That’s a nightmare.
WaPo again gets trolled and proves they have ZERO sense of humor 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Drop Pence put Ivanka on ticket.
He is not joking.
And that scares you?
I hope he does🇺🇸
My husband and I will hold a double suicide.
Worst Presidency ever He’s F&¥€%!!!
I believe 2 should destroy the Clintons and the Obamas. The will immortalize his Presidency.
This moderate Republican isn’t laughing
I don’t think he’s joking.
He is not joking. He’s floating the idea
I knew the fake media would run with this because it’s easy to foresee what jackass’ will do! (What a JOKE WaPo, NYT, CNN etc are!! Laughable)
All hail the king! Long live the king!
I hate Trump!
He won’t finish 1.
He is delusional!
CNN OurCartoonPres -----er from this side of the pond we don't think he is making a joke FoxNews = the fear is Kim don trump might believe it !!!! don't forget he suggested water bombing the Notre Dame fire
Jokes? He is not joking, but testing the reaction.
Hey trump Go eff yourself
The horror!
He jokes just to get at you liberals. But if a naturalized citizen can serve as President for eight years, then the US constitution has already been suspended. Thus, there are no term limits because there is no lawful government. You can't have it both ways.
SDNY will have something to say before he can get his cult to agree to this nonsense.
...and RepAdamSchiff is planning to subpoena Abu Nidal!
Why not, his buddy and comrade Putin did it. I’m sure Russia would love to keep their puppet in office for a long time. Trump is doing a great job destroying what the United States represents to the world. BarrCoverUp MuellerThursday
Key word: JOKES. 🙄🙄🙄
The troll in chief.
DROP DEAD TRUMP AND DO AMERICA A FAVOR!!!
We can only Pray.
Fascist
I don’t think he is joking
Autocrat says what?
This man does not joke. He’s testing the waters and he’s going to stack the judiciary to try and make it possible.
Not a chance
He’s violated the Constitution multiple times, what’s one more
His frontal lobe is disintegrating and what’s left of his brain is full of worms. His health is cratering. Mark my words: he’ll be dead by 2024. At the latest.
NEVER
He really doesn't tell jokes. He's serious. The comedy is purely unintentional.
Not sure this is news, but at least it's not Fake -- you noted that it's a joke. One step closer to credibility. Congrats.
Not a fun joke for anyone
Joke is the proper word.
Principles require integrity, he has neither.
He's not joking. If we don't get him out in 2019 the USA will be the new Russia.
That’s not funny.
No. You will be forcibly removed.
He is not joking! He is jealous of Chinese President that he is president for life!!! We wanted to make sure that he will not finish his term!!! One!!!
Oh fuck no
He wants to be like China.
He's not even going to get a second term let alone a 3rd not happening fuck Trump
Someone tell Moron Don it isn’t funny.
Troll level: 1000
That is a favorite mantra in Banana Republics. Welcome to the Banana Republic of America BRA
IN EVIL DAMN SCUM DREAMS !
Not Funny, Wrong Day, Wrong Topic. We will be Electing an American in 2020.
Are Americans really that ignorant?
Come my Catholicism friends we need Justice
He’s whistling past the graveyard. He knows he’s going in 2020.
He shouldn't be President for even two more minutes. Reversing a prior president's achievements is not policy. It is spite.
That’s not a joke to him!
All of his “jokes” are him testing his supporters
None of this is funny.
Yeah, whatever, Donnie.
Yeah his 'jokes' aren't jokes
1 is more than enough.
I'm just kidding. Unless my supporters think it's a good idea. Then maybe I'm not kidding.
No way
'Jokes'
Sorry Mussolini. Not in your lifetime.
Which is why we need to make sure he’s a one term president
Trump welcomed Russian help, lied to the American people, and tried repeatedly to obstruct justice. Would Bill Weld have done these things? No. Would Larry Hogan? No. Would John Kasich? No. Would Will Hurd? No. Would Mike Gallagher? No. Does Donald Trump deserve renomination? No.
Hope he does!! Trump2020!
Stop spinning it some other way. HE’S NOT JOKING.
Cause his presidency has been a joke? It's a nightmare.
King Trump!
The man can joke if he wants to ya freaking clowns!
Yeah...it's a JOKE. Maybe if leftists removed the stick from their collective arses, they'd get it.
Not funny one bit, this “joke.”
He's not joking people, I grantee he's testing the waters.
Hopefully, he won’t make it thru term 1
Better get Snopes on the case - they'll get to the bottom of this!
Hummmmm dont think so
It's funny because fascism!
ConMen con.
At times like this he speaks the truth about what he really wants & trying so hard to get. He isn't an autocrat for the lack of trying. This narcissistic twit doesn't have the grace or dignity to simply say thank you for the gift. It's ALWAYS GOT TO BE MORE & MORE ABOUT HIM
What a chucklehead
I can’t think of any other President joking about a third term....
Resign
We only wish...the greaest
Not funny!!!
To this narcissistic fool it’s not a joke he just trying to avoid wearing the orange jumpsuit
his 'jokes' are a way of testing, to see what will fly. my guess is there are enough morons in this country who would support trump as president for life....of course its not legal, but looking into the future, I fear for America.
From a trump supporters point of view, I don't care if you're black white Muslim Christian male female gay straight up down if you are honest and I think you will honestly help America you have my vote.
Good luck with that psycho
NO COLLUSION, NO OBSTRUCTION. WHICH PART OF THE REPORT ALL YOU LIBERALS DONT UNDERSTAND
NEVER
If he thinks that will happen he is crazy!!!!!!!it would not surprise me if trys it!!!!!!
Please please let it be a joke .. or a bad dream
Every 'Just kidding' has some truth. So be careful America!
Because he knows they will get him on tax fraud and money laundering when he leaves office!
The main thing that killed comedy and it's killing America is the cooperation in hiding truths, a lot of people got their truths through comedy because it's hard for people to face them straightforward. Everything is wrong . Honesty is the best way to find honest Solutions.
It usually starts with a joke....those dictators, spending 30, 40 years in power in Africa, usually start with a joke....😂😂😂😂
Not joking. Soon. FakeNews
Oh now you know what a joke is?
He’s saying this because he knows SDNY is gonna rape his ass and destroy his empire as soon as he’s no longer president...sooner or later this is gonna happen!
he’s not joking
We don't need 2 terms from this illegitimate president, someoneelse2020
When he jokes, it's not funny. When he says a stupid lie, his handlers say he's joking.
That's not a joke. We shouldn't take it as such.
Still America?
Our President sure knows how to start a liberal meltdown. President Trump is awesome. 😊
Well they have tried to take away his first term with this swamp coup attempt! He wasn’t allowed to shape his DOJ at all. Obama came in and turned doj totally liberal. I don’t support more than two terms but this has been bullshit!
Only hope for realDonaldTrump not going to jail in near future is for him to proclaim himself dictator for life.
And all those cool new voter machines Ivanka just bought. The US has one helluva problem on it's hands. It will take more than clever Dems and an election to clean up what could turn very ugly.
Might as well. No one gives a shit about the Constitution anymore anyway.
It’s not a joke. He wants to be an autocrat / dictator. Make no mistake, he has made his intentions clear.
Constitution anyone?
Only because he knows that the millisecond he is out of office...
sarahkendzior AndreaChalupa SethAbramson gaslitnation
that is exactly what dictators do right? us vs them i got OUR interests in mind the media is bad. only bad people oppose me things are going great why upset it ill stay on as a favour to the country
how bout we talk about something more relevant? enoughalready
Yes. He joked about it - correct reporting for a change
Dictator wanna be !
Jokes. T-RUmp doesn't joke. US needs to wake up to the fact that T-RUmp now believes that he can do with the USA as he sees fit, the 2020 election not withstanding.
He is a riot.
He isn’t joking, that’s his plan & then pass it to Ivanka
Master of dark humour
He won't complete this 1st term. Frontotemporal dementia can't be cured and there is NO WAY to slow its progression.
If he were smart, which we know he is not, he would resign right now! This is only going to get much worse.
With so many people remaining quiet, colluding with Putin, Trump supporters brainwashed, he could! He said only 10-14 years because he'd be 84. Couldn't serve much longer than that otherwise he would have said longer.
Man, I remember Fox News warning about him doing this... Oh wait, sorry, that was Obama.
Don't even play like that!
Trump does not joke.
Well the left ruined 2 years of his first term with this MUH RUSSIANS nonsense so 3 and maybe even 4 terms would make it even... hey you guys want to change the amount of SC justices, well here’s what we’re gonna do
Jokes.... he’s such a jokester
“Jokes”
Mueller report ends. Proceedings for impeachment begin. Impeached. 9th district in newyork begins. 9th district nails shut. The end...or something sorta like that. CELEBRATE LOVE TILL THE END OF CORRUPTION!
LOL, you people are getting played.
Lol, he's trolling you.
God help us🤬🤯
he is such a freak
It’s no joke. I’ve been saying this to people close to me since he was “elected”. If anyone is going to try to abolish the 2 term limit, it’s realDonaldTrump
He is great for economy! More JOBS than under Obama Bush Clinton Bush Why would ANYONE not want this Unless you are a dictator and want to CONTROL the population. President Trump is TRYING to make it to where EVERYONE who is willing can and will make it in life.
Given the CORRUPTNESS of the SenateGOP HouseGOP, the lackeys in appointed judges, a compromised SCOTUS a boot-licking director at DOJ WHO THE HECK KNOWS! We USED to have 3 EQUAL branches of government. Now, we have a 3 ring CIRCUS. No checks. No balance. Just fleecing of USA.
After today I got a feeling the joke’s going to be on you. 😂😂😂
I don’t think he’s kidding, the day a new president is elected I anticipate him staying in the White House refusing to give up power
Seems he forgot the rules (again).
Fever dreams
Nightmares for the Greenback Party. Uh oh, brainstorming session around that table-in secret of course not like the dangerous chans talking conspiracies and such, eh?
Not even a 2nd term!
He won't live that long.
Are you guys really afraid Trump won’t leave? Seriously? Maybe take a break from Twitter
Trump trolls the media and they, once again, fall for it.
Throw this criminal in a cell please.
remember when Newt was saying that Obama was going to do that?
Eh, his health probably doesn’t allow for that many years, tbh
Why do you say 'jokingly' when he's revealing his real thinking. He could characterize that way but it's been repeated enough to conclude that's a recurring thought.
It’s called “survival joking.”
One and done, Donnie.
Bold of him to assume he'll politically survive through one.
Hes 72, obese, and has a high stress job....I dont think this is going to be an issue.
More than two terms would be a dream come true! Let’s make it happen!!! MAGA
Signaling, always messaging to his base 🔥
Good luck with that
God forbid!
