Trump tells voters they won't 'have to vote again' if he's elected

As former President Donald Trump wrapped his nearly 75-minute speech on Friday night at the Turning Point Action's Believers Summit in West Palm Beach Trump said


"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."


Best thing I've heard all week.

In thinking of the endless hours that I now have to spend researching the candidates and the hour or so that I have to sit at the kitchen table filling in those little circles on the mail-in ballot.... Now all I have to do is vote for Trump and I can 'get all that time back". By God, that will save me a ton of time I can better use to slave away at my job. And as a small token of my appreciation to thank him..... I can then donate that 'extra' money to his website.

The further down the rabbit hole you go with this guy the more you worry he isn't too sure who'd be pulling the strings of law or economics even if people signed away their rights by voting for this bilge.

@Picklebobble2 See, that's what I'm worried about. I don't think Trump is the mastermind behind any of this. I think he's the puppet.

@LordShadowfire He's just not smart enough for any of the proposals he talks about.
That means he's being directed by somebody.

Saying all the things that inspire fear and mistrust in people or institutions currently contrlling money or law or healthcare etc.

And people have incredibly short memories.
Remember all the sudden draconian measures vocalized by Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway in hastily arranged press conferences the last time he was President ?

@LordShadowfire I had exactly this discussion with a long-time SimilarWorlds political contributor yesterday.
Only i was using Bill Gates and Elon Musk as examples of social engineering by way of their foundations and what they want to do in other parts of the world where people are so poor they were unlikely to be consulted on the very issues they were likely to be affected by if these guys get their way.

@Picklebobble2 "Directed" - yes, by among others, perhaps a bunch of high-sums sponsors calling itself the Heritage Foundation. It has invented what it calls its2025 Presidential Transition Project, often shortened to Project 2025.

Its own web-site makes no bones about its essentially wanting to run the United States of America country by proxy, and in its own image.

Most of its ideas are political and economic and so can and should be debated properly as such, although one of its most contentious proposals would destroy the USA's civil-service's neutrality by re-classifying all the staff as political appointees. However, it also embraces social ideology not at all liberal in the true sense of the word - i.e.personal freedom and individuality. It is for example, homophobic, appears to have quite cold-hearted ideas about human relationships and families and is implicitly against any religious beliefs other than the Christianity it wants to intertwine with government.


That's the Republican side. To be fair I would have identified any Democratic Party equivalent "supporter" as well, but I do not know what, if any, there may be.

Obviously the Democrats must have similarly wealthy sponsors though, because all two of the USA's parties spend eye-watering sums on campaign rallies more pop festival than political hustings, TV advertising and the like.

It was hearing of the "Project 2025" in a radio news interview that made me find out what it is.
