    I've been saying trump will try almost everything possible to stay in power after the election regardless of the results for a while now, and with each day that passes I believe it more and more.

      He has outright said that multiple times now by his responses and actions. It is no longer about believing. It is seeing reality.

          It's kinda hard to believe he actually cares very much about being President or about the republican party. He just likes getting people fired up by saying "wall" or "election fraud" or whatever idk. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't really pay much attention to him tbh.

            I mean he's enriched himself massively from the position of president and the cult of personality around him makes it impossible for other republicans to come out against Trump without losing massive support (because no matter what libs say, the "never Trump" republicans are a myth) . He also apparently kept a book of Hitler's speeches called "My New Order" on his bedside table according to his ex wife. Do I think he gives a shit about being president or the United States? No. But he definitely likes the power and influence it gives him
