Will Donald actually be strengthened by being a Lame Duck?

Ain't gonna be no such amendment.
Utterings from the TDS Swamp without a shred of common sense.

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…

What’s your over/under on when he suggests he should get a third term?
Why didn't he suggest that last time?

He was too busy being a shitty Hitler.

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.

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

We'd have just elected Obama for the fourth time.

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