This is his typical threat to his beloved minions. “Vote for me now or I’ll disappear and you won’t see me again!”

I’m not exactly sure in what way you meant that, but I’m perfectly fine with any possible interpretation.

Who would have thought that paragon of virtue would just lie like that.

Just him bargaining with his base. “Well if you don’t vote me in I’ll just stop running, your loss.”

In 2020 his dementia hadn’t progressed so far.

It would be really hard to run this guy in 2028 without having to hide him the entire time. He’s slipping and even the sanewashing from the media can’t really hide it all. It’s part of why he’s in hiding right now, they know he can no longer hold onto ideas long enough to make it through a speech. He was always relatively incoherent… but it’s really become painful and out of control when he’s in public speaking.

It’s already elder abuse, and it would be a hard sell to make it happen in 2028, no matter how much his addled mind might want that because he simply cannot accept losing. Which is why he’s dumped all his energy and money into cheating. It’s also why the party dumped everything into a VP who will do what he’s told, and hit Trump with the 25th amendment sometime soon after a “successful” election of Trump. They know it’s Trumps last dance and he’s out of control.

Yeah but he won’t be able to string together enough words to even give us the current word salad he does now. You can see the decline just from the start of his campaign to now. And that’s assuming he’s even still alive given his clearly sub-par health and dietary habits.

Money and modern medications can keep seriously unhealthy assholes alive far too long these days.
