Trump Muses about Serving 21 More Years as POTUS

By Staff, Agencies

US President Donald Trump mused about serving 21 more years in office, while attacking members of the press at a rally.

The President of the United States [POTUS] was addressing an audience in Kentucky on Monday evening during which he drew the crowd’s attention to journalists covering the event.

“It’s the fake news, look at all of them,” he said, pointing at the press pen as the audience loudly booed.

“What they don’t know is that when we hang it up, in five years...or nine years, or 13 years...or maybe 17 years, or maybe – if I still have the strength - 21 years...”

Trump trailed off as the crowd cheered, before again criticizing the media.

“See, now they’re going crazy,” he said, about the press.

US presidents, however, are term-limited and can only serve a maximum of eight years in office.

Trump has been accused of glorifying authoritarians in the past.

“Now they’re like: See, I told you he was a dictator,” Trump said, parodying the criticisms.

“He wants to take charge and take control of our country. These people are crazy.”

Despite the 73-year-old attempting to frame the suggestion as a joke, he has repeatedly spoken about serving more than two terms.
