I really want to give him the entirely unwarranted benefit of the doubt that he’s saying it won’t matter in 4 years bc he won’t be running (making the assumption he’ll win this time and reach his term limit) but having watched the video I dunno, that “we’ll have it fixed by then” sounds reeeeaaally ominous.
It looks like the real benefit of the doubt is that he’s hopefully talking about laws on voter ID being fixed. Still, what the hell is a presidential candidate doing telling people they don’t need to vote anymore? Even with the benefit of the doubt, this shit is ominous.
Edit: to be clear, I don’t give him the benefit of the doubt. All I’m saying is if somebody wants to, this is the best they’re able to do. It’s also important to be aware of the context of the quote, even if you believe he means it in the worst way.

When did giving trump the benefit of the doubt ever work?
It wasn’t even a dog whistle, it was a fog horn. There’s not much room for interpretion.
Mr dictator on day one obviously wants to stay a dictator.
