What is it about Trump that triggers you and causes you so much angst and unease
Per the topic heading I do not have 'angst and unease' over Mr. Trump as President but I wish he was not. I moved to Thailand in 2004, and I am happy I did so as it seems the vox populi in America is capable of electing Trump as president TWICE. -

What is it about Trump that triggers you and causes you so much angst and unease
So you admit he is successful, you just have a problem with how he got there. That's progress. Because then motion that a man that flies in his own 747, lives on the coast of Florida in his own hotel and golf course, has golf resorts around the world isn't successful is a hard thing to argue. -

Trump Declares He Won’t Seek Third Term, Dismisses Speculation Over 2028 Run
Trump Declares He Won’t Seek Third Term, Dismisses Speculation Over 2028 Run Former President Donald Trump has stated unequivocally that he will not seek a third term in office, brushing aside speculation stirred by his own past remarks and merchandise marketed by his company. Speaking in an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press host Kristen Welker, which aired on Sunday, Trump said, “I'll be an eight-year president, I'll be a two-term president. I always thought that was very important.” At 78 years old, Trump had previously teased the idea of serving a third or even fourth term. At one point, he insisted he was “not joking” about extending his tenure beyond the constitutionally mandated two terms. However, he later said his statements were meant to troll the "fake news media". In the interview, which was recorded Friday at his Florida residence, Trump admitted that many people had encouraged him to consider remaining in office past 2029. “So many people want me to do it,” he said, just days after marking his first 100 days in his second term as president. He added that “to the best of my knowledge, you're not allowed to do it,” referring to a potential third term. “I don't know if that's constitutional that they're not allowing you to do it or anything else,” Trump said, pointing again to the flurry of speculation surrounding the “Trump 2028” merchandise. “There are many people selling the 2028 hat. But this is not something I'm looking to do,” he insisted. Trump went on to suggest that a future Republican leader could follow in his footsteps, naming Vice-President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio as possible successors. The U.S. Constitution is clear on presidential term limits. The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, states: “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.” To change that would require not only a two-thirds majority vote in both the House and Senate, but also ratification by three-quarters of the states—a nearly impossible political hurdle. Despite this, some Trump supporters continue to promote the idea that a constitutional loophole might permit a third term. When asked directly whether anyone had pitched such theories to him, Trump dodged the question. “In a capacity of being a big supporter, many people have said different things,” he replied. The interview also touched on the economy and Trump’s controversial tariff strategy, which has unsettled global markets and led to the first U.S. economic contraction since 2022. Still, Trump defended his actions. “Look, yeah. Everything’s OK,” he said, calling the current phase a “transition period.” He added, “I think we’re going to do fantastically.” Pressed on whether the economy could shrink further, he responded, “Anything can happen. But I think we’re going to have the greatest economy in the history of our country.” He also suggested that tariffs could become a permanent fixture of U.S. economic policy. “If somebody thought they were going to come off the table, why would they build in the United States?” he asked. When asked if Americans should prepare for fewer goods on store shelves as the trade war persists, Trump dismissed the concern. “No, I’m not saying that. I’m just saying they don’t need to have 30 dolls. They can have three,” he said. “They don’t need to have 250 pencils. They can have five.” While Trump’s declarations may quell some of the third-term rumors, his remarks and the behavior of his supporters ensure the conversation isn’t going away entirely.
