    I didn’t say he wouldn’t get votes, he doesn’t need elections anymore to keep his ass in the chair. It’s done, he is in his 2nd term. Americans aren’t of any concern to him as long as a line of millionaires and billionaires keep kissing his ring. Nothing he passes will be for anyone, just against stuff his donors don’t agree with.

      But what about his 3rd term? He’s going to need to put the work in to make that happen. Not in gathering many votes granted, but to ensure the election falls in his favour when the time comes.

      Thankfully for him, as you say, he has a close symbiotic partnership with the rich, and they along with the government staff he is putting into position (and purging those who aren’t loyal to him) are the ones who control the voting process. So, with a little hard work, mostly done by other people, he’ll win the next election.

        If he bends things enough to break an amendment, why would he even bother with keeping it based on voting?
