    If the amendment did happen, Mr. Obama would be the next president.

    Be careful what you wish for.

      Ain't gonna be no such amendment.

      Utterings from the TDS Swamp without a shred of common sense.

      “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

      Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

        @Jolly correct.

          Besides, the message from the future tells us that Trump does and Vance takes over when he’s 39 years old. That means DJT must die…(checks the calendar) at least 7 months ago…

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  He still had a second term to look forward to. But he did once suggest he was owed 2 more years in his first term due to the Russia investigation.

                      Did anyone have 3 days on their bingo card?

                      I didn’t make a guess, but had I done so it would have been around midterms. Trump is already outperforming my expectations.

                        Trump doesn't like to lose, but if the rule says he has to retire in 2028 when he's 82 I don't think he'll mind stepping aside and letting his protégé (Vance) take over in 2028. That would be a good GOP legacy, and it doesn't involve him risk losing.

                        To your original point @LuFins-Dad I think that is a good analysis. He was certainly caught off guard in 2016 when he won, but now he knows how the Swamp works.

                          I think the better reason why Trump won't try to run for a third term, is that he'd need to amend the constitution to do so.

                            Call me a n00b but I always thought it was a limit of two terms consecutively... I didn't realize it was a total of only two terms.

                                        Call me a n00b but I always thought it was a limit of two terms consecutively... I didn't realize it was a total of only two terms.

                                        “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice,” 22nd Amendment.

                                        Easy fix… Just make him Speaker of the house after his term, then have the duly elected President and VP step down…

                                        Terrifying.

                                        Alright, who has to go to jail this time to make @Horace feel safe again?
