It's possible. They could repeal the 22nd amendment term limit.

No, its not. "They" can't repeal anything.

Why do Jews scare you so much?

Why are Jews so scared of not having total power?

 

[Muhammed]

No, its not. "They" can't repeal anything.

Bullshit, liar.

The same amendment process that was used to add the term limit can be used to repeal it.

Quit being an idiot, fuckin' dipshit.

I don’t believe Trump is constitutionally eligible to run for vice president. He has to meet the same criteria as the president.

The constitutional criteria to be President are 35 years old, natural born citizen and 14 years a resident.

That is different to be eligible to run for office, the 22nd limits the ability to run for president, vice president is a different office.

But again it ain’t happening.

There is no way he can become president again.

There's apparently no legal way Trump can win a third term, but what has he ever done to make you think he believes laws apply to him?

Donald Trump says Adelson pledged $250m as pair teases third term | The Jerusalem Post

"US President Donald Trump said that Miriam Adelson pledged $250 million, as the pair teased a third term for the president at the White House annual Hanukkah candle-lighting on Tuesday.

"Adelson, an Israeli-American philanthropist, was the wife of the late billionaire Sheldon Adelson and a prominent donor to Trump's 2024 campaign

"Adelson spoke at the Hanukkah event, noting that she had spoken with Trump's lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, about the legality of a third Trump term. "

Trump has previously ruled out running for a third term possible after reading the 22 Amendment:

Google Overview:

"The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1951, explicitly states: 'No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice...'. Having been elected in 2016 and again in 2024, he is constitutionally ineligible to run for election a third time. "

Few thought he could win in 2016.
Even fewer thought he could win after January 6th.
Can he find a way to run in 2028?

Who needs a democracy, we what an oligarchy.

We are never going to have a non-woke president it seems. The Democrats want to throw you in the slammer for using wrong pronouns, saying slurs, etc and the Republicans want to throw you in the slammer for being mean to Jews/Israel

Imho, 90% of Americans have opinions that are of no significance to those they elect.

I think that applies more to US foreign policy, especially regarding Israel. Democrats and Republicans have consistently supported imperialism, militarism, and corporate rule for at least the last 30 years.

Democrats invested far to much political capital in pronouns while continuing to slavishly serve the war machine that is currently bankrupting this country while bringing the entire planet closer to nuclear destruction.

Based on his actions and not his words, Trump appears to be one more cog in that machine.

The third-term talk comes up often, but legally it seems pretty clear. The 22nd Amendment doesn’t leave much room for interpretation. It feels more like political theater than an actual plan.

Political theater seems like the best explanation at this point; however, much could change over the next three years.

Trump is receiving questionable advice on the legal aspects of a third term:

Alan Dershowitz tells Trump the Constitution is not ‘clear’ on third term

"In his book titled Could President Trump Constitutionally Serve a Third Term?, (Alan) Dershowitz lays out several scenarios he believes could allow Trump to run again."

 

[georgephillip]

Unfortunately there are people out there who put their own financial or political interests ahead of the good of the Country. Ms. Adelson obviously doesn’t give a damn about the rule of law or the Constitution.

Possibly because she was born 80 years ago in Mandatory Palestine?

She has always been Israel First, and, apparently, Trump has signed on to that betrayal.

Miriam Adelson - Wikipedia

"Support for Donald Trump​

"Since 2016, Adelson has been known for her support for Donald Trump.

"She and her husband were the largest donors to Trump throughout his first presidency; they provided the largest donation to his 2016 campaign, his presidential inauguration, his defense fund against the Mueller investigation into Russian interference and the 2020 campaign.

"She has written that Trump 'should enjoy sweeping support' among U.S. Jews and Israelis, and that Trump deserves a 'Book of Trump' in the Bible due to his support for Israel."

 

[georgephillip]

I will without question vote for him if he runs. Please do.

You're pledging your support three years before his next potential run for POTUS?

What mistake could Donald make between now and then that would change your mind?

 

[georgephillip]

Using wrong pronouns isn't wrong. If you are born a male, you are a male. No one died. Chanting death to Jews can kill as we witnessed the massacre this past weekend.

Israeli Jews are committing mass murder in Gaza; do you think that genocide helps explain rising anti-Semitism around the world?

 

[georgephillip]

Well, if Trump tried for a third, I imagine the Democrats will run Obama.

Which one?

Who needs a democracy, we what an oligarchy.

Trump is a prime example of an American oligarch, and his rise was set in motion fifty years ago:

As for donating $250 million over the idea, "A fool and their money are soon parted".

Adelson seems to be earning a fairly good (political) return on her investments so far; if her 2028 pledge of $250 million applies to which ever POTUS candidate Republicans vomit up, that would be criminal but not foolish.

Could he run as the vice president and then take office if the president resigned?

Be very afraid alang1216

Even if he runs as the vice president and then the president resigns?

He wont be eligible to run as VP because of the 2 terms. 12th amendment.
