1. I believe many of us have gotten to the point where Trump saying something crazy doesn't move the needle much any more, but this one ought to make the courts test if the 25th Amendment can apply to candidates:

   "Christians, get out and vote, just this time. You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what, it will be fixed, it will be fine, you won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians…I love you Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote."

      1. I couldn't really discern whether the reverend FDFQ was hinting at some sort of Yarvin/Thiel anarcho-techie-meritomonarchy end to American democracy, or going the full Monty and just ordering the Rapture. I guess "both" is also a possibility.

   1. Thing is, I suspect he envisions a future where plausible deniability won't be necessary anymore.
