(3,355 posts)But before anyone gets his hopes up, he gave up on Trump and MAGA over Israel and the Iran War, and his view that Trump isn't doing enough to "clean out the institutions" (to "reverse Gramsci" the institutions as he puts it), "draining the swamp," etc. He says we need "more arrests" and things like that (I think what he saw as Pam Bondi's "not doing enough" is what started the sour taste).
He says what the country needs is a "great man of history," and that Trumps not it. I asked him to name some examples of who he's thinking about, and he said people like Alexander the Great, Augustus, George Washington, Napoleon, and Buekele in El Salvador. (He does say that he wishes Trump was what Redditors fear he is.)
I let it go because 1) I love my baby, 2) I know what he wants isn't ever going to happen here and that it's him just blowing off steam, and 3) frankly, I depend on him. I don't know what I'd do without him.
But at least he's not talking about a Trump 3rd term.
