😂 no way can anyone be surprised? He has already made up his mind about giving up power it’s all planned out. 

The day I stop being horrified, mystified, and mortified is the day I stop giving a shit.

That can't be good for him in 2028

How bad is it for Trump? In this college commencement season, the increasingly unpopular president isn’t going anywhere near the high-profile Northeastern university campuses that his administration has targeted for funding cuts and anti-immigrant raids in recent months. But the White House calculated that the president could appear without too much trouble on the Tuscaloosa campus of the University of Alabama– a move that returns Trump to a state where he has frequently campaigned over the past decade, and where he won in 2024 with 65 percent of the vote.

This spring, however, they calculated wrong. As soon as Trump’s commencement address was announced, University of Alabama College Democrats announced plans for a “Tide Against Trump” demonstration (which will feature former Texas US representative Beto O’Rourke) and declared that they were “shocked and disgusted to learn that our unpopular, divisive, and authoritarian president will be involved in commencement for the graduating class of 2025.” The group dismissed Trump as a “disgraced criminal,” decried the notion that the campus should serve as “a backdrop for MAGA propaganda,” and declared, “UA is not a fascist playground.”

Of course, Democrats can be expected to oppose Trump. But when Alabamians, no matter their partisan leanings, are ripping into Trump’s authoritarianism with explicit talk of fascism, that can’t be good for the president.

Within hours of the announcement of the president’s commencement plans, a “Tide Against Tyranny” petition demanding that Trump’s Thursday address in Tuscaloosa be canceled had drawn 25,000 signatures. The outcry in Alabama grew so loud that campus officials threatened students with “expulsion, arrest, and/or an immediate campus ban” if they object to Trump’s presence on the campus—where federal agents recently arrested and detained, he detainment of Alireza Doroudi, a PhD student from Iran who was studying at the university. The response from student activists was to mock the university for “coddling” Trump, whom students dismissed as a “whiny, childish autocrat.”

And if that’s what they’re calling Trump in Alabama, you can just imagine what’s being said about the president in the rest of the country—a country where, as The Washington Post observed on Monday, “none of his policies tested in the poll enjoy majority support.” And pointed out that “Trump’s approval rating is lower than for any past president at the 100-day mark in their first or second terms.”

Lower than any president! In American history!

Who knew ‘Bama has a cadre of dark woke far leftists that sound like they’re going to disrupt a college campus and ruin the graduation experience? From The Nation:
