Kid Rock and Bill Maher debated how serious President Donald Trump is about running for a “third term,” which the host says he brings up a lot.
Trump is known for saying things just for the sake of getting a reaction out of people, knowing that his opponents are easily triggered by many of his jokes. This was demonstrated on Maher’s show when he expressed concern about how often the president brings up the topic of a “third term.”
Watch:

“I tell you what makes me a little not calm. Trump keeps joking—‘joking’—about a third term. Get it? Democracy’s over,” Maher said to the audience’s laughter.
“I haven’t heard that,” Rock responded.
“You haven’t heard that? He does it all the time. He does it all the time,” the host said.
“Well, he likes to joke. I know he’s funny as sh-t. But. I’m telling you, the guy’s hilarious. He’s so fun to hang out with,” the singer/songwriter chuckled.
“Yeah, I bet he is fun to hang out with. But you don’t think he’s serious about that?” Maher asked, still concerned.
“No.”
“And if he was, would that be a break for you? Would anything make you break?” Maher asked. “If he said, ‘No, I’m going to be against our Constitution, what we’ve had for many years.’ You cannot run for a third term. If he said, ‘No, I’m staying.’ Would that break?”
“Under current circumstances? If things are going along the way they’ve been going along, yes. If he’s like, ‘I’m running for a third term,’ I’d be like, ‘Whoa, whoa, pump the brakes, man. Hold on a second,'” Rock admitted.
“So he could lose Kid Rock.” Maher pressed.
“Be very tough. Be very, very tough. Very, very tough. I told you before, which is probably going to shock your audience: I don’t like Trump. I f*cking love Trump,” the musician admitted.
“I know you do.”
X users reacted to the clip, with many deeming Maher’s fears to be unfounded:
Trump makes them afraid of nonexistent things. Their own imaginations.

Trump says that to provoke a reaction from the likes of Maher.
And clearly it’s working.

Idiot Bill Maher is too dumb to realize that Trump says stuff like this to make dumbasses like him go crazy

If Trump were 10 years or 20 years younger, bill would have right to be concerned but the man will be in his 80s by the time 2028 rolls around
He won’t want to stay forever. He will pass the torch to JD Vance

Maher just likes to hear his own voice. He knows Trump will hand the reins to Vance and because he chose Vance for this very reason. You can bet Trump is teaching Vance everything he knows to prepare him for 2028.
