It obviously won't get close to passing but it would be incredible for Democrats if it did. He has zero margin in the House, nothing major is passing into law except tax cuts. All his executive order policies are inflationary.
So either he's crashing the economy, taking the blame for continued inflation, or getting nothing of consequence done. And he'd be 83 and asking for four more years. He'd get crushed.
He will use Musk's money, again, to cheat, again, in my opinion.
Well if the heritage Foundation is going to follow the book of revelation, he needs to be there for 7.5 years.
Seems more like someone sucking up to Trump rather than something they realistically believe they could get passed
I don't think they want Obama running again..... He whooped their ass twice.
That will never happen, legally, anyway.
However
22nd amendment says:
Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. ...
So what they are gonna do is that:
They are gonna argue that presidents are not "elected" but appointed by the Electoral College, therefore the 22nd amendment doesn't apply and hereby null and void.
Or just use elect VP + accension to presidency loophole, and run a dead person as President, then trump as VP, since the placeholder name they put for president isn't alive, VP become president.
Or just cast placeholder names for presidency and VP, and use the Speaker role as acting president.
There are so many loopholes that doesn't require repealing 22nd amendment.
I mean, it’s gonna. Every worst case thing is happening all over the place. The constitution is only as good as the people upholding it.
boot-throating cucks
But, but, I thought he didn't need this because he has never served two CONSECUTIVE terms! /s
Bold to assume he would even be elected again after 4 years of fucking it up. He wasn’t last time.
He will be 82! Have you talked to any 80 year olds recently?
Knowing Trump, I wouldn't be surprised if he went full Nayib Bukele and sent in troops to influence the vote.
And as much as I like Bukele, he presided over unique circumstances where his country was effectively being ruled by MS-13 and his actions were warranted in the case of being elected leader of a country ruled by drug overlords. The USA is going through no such crisis.
Pretty fucking gross if you ask me.
