Probably would've scurried into it when he loses the 2028 run
Good. We can seal the doors, cut the power, and leave him and his cronies to rot in there forever.
Quickly Mr. President, help me bring the guests to your fancy ballroom a cask of amontillado we keep in the secret bunker.
He would totally bite. There’s no way he’s familiar with that story
He definitely hasn't ever read a book for pleasure. Maybe just never read a book.
I saw this movie, it was called Civil War and was one of the most genuinely anxiety fueling films Ive seen in recent years.
What kind of American are you?
It's scheduled to be completed months before the election, but the part he cares about is underground.
The thing is, even if there's absolutely zero way to get inside, it doesn't mean shit if no one outside the bunker listens to him.
It would be the perfect ending to this if he really goes down into a bunker with his closest circle who have the supplies to live decades...
And after waiting a while we just seal the doors.
It would 100% be worse than prison for everyone sealed in there. Just leave them to die together in a hole.
But the ironic part is there was already a bunker there, and it's likely now compromised.
So if the new one doesn't get finished, there won't be any bunker under his direct control.
He wanted to build his own, so that no one else knew how to open it. Like, if he went to one of the still secret bunkers like under Biltmore, people that are outside know how to get him out.
I mean that's really not what it was for. It was more along the lines of an underground data center but the command center for the president that was upgraded and updated similar to the ones that have been built in Israel over the last few years that gives them a place to hide and everything. It's not really a bunker related to Trump himself going underground he just wanted to be the one to build it and the one that it got he got remembered for.
...
I mean, he'd use the bunker anyways, just like he uses every other part of office for his personal benefit.
But if you think any president wouldn't go in that bunker if need be, or it's not prepared for that contingency....
Well, that's just fucking wild to me.
My point is he's not going to go lock himself down there and refuse to come out when his presidency is over. That's just kind of ridiculous. This fucker is going to be dead before then or shortly after that.
Less so then living up to this point in American history and thinking that's ridiculous...
But I'm not gonna keep trying to explain shit when you reflexively downvote.
You want an argument, I wanted to help you understand something.
Now we're both disappointed.
