Steve Bannon is doing countless interviews and shamelessly saying he will be president again in 2028.

It is one thing for Bannon to say it. It is another thing for a prominent sitting senator to say it [1]. (That would be senator Lindsey Graham.) I wish John McCain was still around... he would have had the courage to stand up and talk sense into these people.

> I wish John McCain was still around... he would have had the courage to stand up and talk sense into these people.

At one point I would have agreed, but then in 2017, McCain made his "We will regret what we are about to do" speech before the R's removed the filibuster requirement for the Gorsuch confirmation. And as an Arizona voter, I switched my registration from Independent to Democrat.

> “I fear that someday we will regret what we are about to do. In fact, I am confident we will,” said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. “It is imperative we have a functioning Senate where the rights of the minority are protected regardless of which party is in power at the time.” > > Nonetheless, McCain voted with McConnell on the rules change, saying he felt he had no choice.

technically, he is currently scheduled to be president for the entirety of 2028 because the election is in November 2028 and the presidential term ends on January 20, 2029.

but that's probably not what he meant.

The bro grifters are going to bro grift because it gets them views and merch sales. Trump won't live that long: age, appearance, bad health habits, and obesity... and talk about not getting into heaven and display of extra NGAF by pardoning real pieces of work in a fury like he's already on his way out of office. By July 2026, Dear Orange Leader will most likely be pushing up daisies. Poor health and impaired decision-making skills are what are signaled.
