Trump Tells Crowd They 'Won't Have To Vote' Again After Election

Former President Donald Trump told Christians on Friday to vote “just this time” and claimed they “won’t have to do it anymore” after the election in November.

“Four more years, you know what? It’ll be fixed, it’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore,” the GOP presidential nominee told the crowd at the conservative Turning Point Action event in Florida.

He later continued, “Get out. You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”

It’s unclear what the former president is referring to with his remarks.

Trump has previously claimed he’d be a dictator only on “day one” of a second term, once called for the “termination” of articles of the Constitution, attempted a coup to remain in office and seemingly floated serving a third White House term at the National Rifle Association Convention back in May.

The former president’s recent remarks arrive roughly four months after a Project 2025 partner organization shared an article calling for the repeal of the 22nd Amendment, which limits presidents to two terms, Media Matters for America reported at the time.

Trump, whose vice presidential choice Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) wrote a book foreword for an architect of Project 2025, claimed that he has “nothing to do with” and knows “nothing” about the right-wing policy blueprint on Wednesday.

Sort of.

What he means is, this is my last time running so this is the last time you have to go to the polls. Remember he’s a narcissist. He sees everything solely in terms of what benefits him. And he sees everyone else the same way — everyone else exists to serve him. So, if he’s not running again, there’s no need to bother voting because Trump isn’t on the ballot.

I think this is what he meant, rather than “you won’t need to vote again because there will be a dictatorship,” although I see we are using it against him and hey if it works, it works.

Most people do not want to live under the rule of those nut jobs.

There’s also controversy about whether he said he’s not a Christian or he is one.

My mom is living off of social security and is PRO TRUMP and my Dad is rich as hell and is a Democrat. My mom worked for Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition back in the day but has become a fundamentalist Christian. Those types are always the victims of society even though they are the ones railroading their beliefs over everyone. Anyone who preaches that they are the underdogs, they cling to. I find it amazing that such a huge generation of hippy, free-love and peace generation turned out so conservative.

It really comes down to too many brown people and not enough white people in the country. Even the brown people for Trump want to be the only ones in the room and are still seeking approval from white people that they are "One of the Good Ones."

Project 2025 is a right-wing wish list that has been around since the 50s. It is what they say they want to do but they can't do. They are fringe and have only gotten tax cuts—some judges. They will never get enough people to back them. They are Christian nationalists in a nation that is getting away from fire and brimstone religion. There are fewer Christians than ever now. This is basically the old John Birch Society.

R94 Yes, the John Birch Society, sponsored and spearheaded by Fred Koch, was rejected by the Republican party in the mid 1960s because they were concerned their extremism would not only destroy their party, but would lead to failure of our democracy. In the 200os the Tea Party, the modern day version of the John Birch Society, sponsored this time by Fred's sons, Charles and David Koch, were embraced by the Republicans, which is why the Republican Party has gone nuclear with overt racist policies instead of their prior more subdued policies. However, you're wrong about never getting enough people to back them. That is no longer their plan. They are rigging the system with extreme gerrymandering, having right-wing judges in key places throughout the country, not just the SCOTUS. It's going to be minority rule and legally there will be no way to fight it.

[quote] Harris camp responds to Trump telling Christians they 'don't have to vote again' if he gets elected

As former President Donald Trump wrapped his nearly 75-minute speech on Friday night, he delivered a final pitch to the Christian conservative crowd, saying if they vote for him on Election Day, they would never be obligated to vote again.

"I don't care how, but you have to get out and vote," Trump said at Turning Point Action's Believers Summit in West Palm Beach. "Christians, get out and vote just this time."

"You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what? It'll be fixed," Trump said.

He added: "I love you, Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote."

The Harris campaign is characterizing Trump's comment that if Christians vote this one time they won't have to do it anymore as a "vow to end democracy."

"When Vice President Harris says this election is about freedom she means it. Our democracy is under assault by criminal Donald Trump," Harris for President Spokesperson James Singer said. "Donald Trump wants to take America backward, to a politics of hate, chaos, and fear – this November America will unite around Vice President Kamala Harris to stop him."

The gathering centered around divine intervention – where Trump reiterated that the power of prayer and the grace of Almighty God saved his life two weeks ago when a bullet struck him in an attempted assassination.

"We want to thank each and every one of the believers in this room for your prayers and your incredible support. I really did appreciate it. Something was working, that we know, something was working," Trump opened his remarks. "I stand before you tonight, thanks to the power of prayer and the grace of Almighty God."

Trump also suggested that Christians don't vote "proportionately," which Trump often bickers about on the campaign trail.

"I don't want to scold you, but do you know that Christians do not vote proportionately?" Trump asked the crowd.

Trump's comments made the rounds on social media as users suggested that his comments sounded similar to when he commented that he'd be a dictator, but just on "day one" and suggested that Trump was alluding to never leaving the White House.

The problem is that he is not going to gain any NEW voters, and he needs to find votes to win. And that's why Kamala is going to beat him in November. She has the momentum, the excitement. She is still enough of an unknown candidate that people will change their votes in her favor.

Kamala hit the right note in listing just some of Trump's history of grotesquerie, taking the fight to him. But there needs to be relentlessly more from intelligent patriots, to ridicule Trump's tinpot fantasies and the threat they pose to America.

This statement is very similar to the "Stand back and stand by" Dump screeched to the fucking Proud Boys during a 2020 debate. The intended audience (fascists and fascist leaning people) is successfully reached, while there is room given (by design) to question if that's what the fuckhead really meant.

Bullshit. This kind of messaging is the ONLY thing Dump does well . He's such a bafoon that it's easy to accept his "misspoke" or doesn't really understand what he's saying.

von Papen and Hindenburg said that about Hitler and where did that get us?

I know the type. He says these things because the media and the Democrats meltdown every time he says something outrageous. The more people react to it the more he does it. I wonder what would happen if everyone ignored him and didn't react to his shit it would mean he wasn't getting attention and attention is the only thing he cares about besides money The Psychopath in him is the con trying to con everyone out of money and the Narrissistist in him is the attention-getting clown. I would put his IQ at around 79. He is stupid but he has great instincts when it comes to showmanship. Barnum and Bailey. He would have done well in the circus.

R191 don't pooh pooh the threat. He's willing to watch the world burn.

The defense in this case would be that nobody HAS to vote ever, it's not like Australia where voting is mandatory. But he has no reason to fear the military or the politicans. The only people who should scare him are the people.

Let MAGA try and storm the Capital again in January, 2025 when the Orange Anus loses again. It won't go well for them.

If Trump loses the election, he will of course declare it was rigged and refused to concede, and launch multiple legal challenges in all the swing states again.

He decided to drop on his knees and suck Trump's dick. Like most of that sad excuse for a party.

He's been saying that for 8 years. Listen.

If Trump can somehow have the power to make himself dictator against all laws of the US, how come Biden was powerless to cancel student loan debt or keep his campaign promise to raise the minimum wage?

Trump has 6 Supreme Court justices in his corner R200. They've already said he can do whatever he wants and it's not illegal. And yes, I know that each crime will need to be adjudicated by lower courts delaying it all, but what will they say if he gets back in? I don't trust them one iota, do you???

Or keep abortion legal or lately he has been saying he will put a cap on rents. if he can legally do that why hasn't he.

Biden's former Communications Director :

[quote]Kate Bedingfield wrote on social media that Trump wasn’t implying that there wouldn’t be an election in 2028 if he won, as some on the left have said. “I realize this will earn me the ire of many Dems, but … I don’t think that here he’s saying there will be no more elections. I think he is saying I won’t be on the ticket either way, so who cares,” she said.

She should be careful, if she continues bending herself into a pretzel so much she may get seriously injured.

Imma suggest that she not take anything he says as a joke. It should be taken as a threat.

I watched Rachel Maddow and am alarmed. If Harris wins, the election might not be certified.

by Anonymousreply 206July 30, 2024 6:23 PM

She thinks, well that's reassuring.

And 'I won’t be on the ticket either way, so who cares' says it all. He doesn't give a shit about any of them. Incels, fundies, billionaires, crypto bros, nationalists, bitter white trash. Not a shit. Even his team is saying the quiet part out loud and clear. A man who doesn't care about anything except power is dangerous.

Of course he did.

Hopefully now that dumb bitch at R203 will shut the fuck up.

Of course Fox did not press him on what 'fixed' means because after his fumbling BS answer moderates will be enraged at government interference in their schools, bedrooms and hospitals while fundies will be enraged that he's not going nearly far enough.

Trump does not have a sense of humor or makes jokes. When he says something, that is his true intention. How many zillions of times did Michael Cohen tell people this????

My God, there's just no hiding Trump's Neck Pussy in the original post.

Ever thought you would live in a time when a lying Neck Pussy and his eyeliner-wearing, Couch Fucker would be serious contenders for leadership in America?

Except trump speaks in doublespeak. So he means it both ways with one way being an excuse that he didn't mean it the other way.
