Donald Trump reveals bombshell plans to run for president in another country

For a man constitutionally barred from a third term, the idea of “exporting” his presidency is both surreal and chilling. Trump’s offhand joke about running Venezuela after a U.S.-backed operation toppled Nicolás Maduro landed like a test balloon: half bluster, half trial run for a new kind of power fantasy. He boasted that Venezuelans adore him, that his poll numbers there are historic, that he could just pick up a new country the way others pick up a new job. In the same breath, he bragged he’d “quickly” learn Spanish, then sneered that he wouldn’t waste time learning “your damn language,” exposing the familiar contempt beneath the showmanship.
