“I don’t think he’d better”
Fuckin’ wot mate?
So many better ways to word that lol
It makes sense though and is grammatically correct. It is the same as saying “I think he had better not (do that)”
I got the intent but a simple “I don’t think he should” or “I don’t think that’s a good idea” reads much better. People don’t really talk like that, at least not anymore. I don’t think I’ve ever heard that sentiment expressed that way lol.

But this comic strip is from 1988 lol
Definitely heard people taking like that.
Also, re “not anymore” this is almost 40 years old, remember.
I take it back. I was celebrating and cross-faded last night. Forgot that “You’d better blahblahblah” was a colloquial phrase. It’s just when you unabbreviate the contractions it is very awkwardly worded. He pushed it a bit lol. My bad.
I mean I added the not anymore because I realized lol.
“I do not think he would better” just doesn’t seem right to me.
