A Republican House member introduced a resolution to amend the U.S. Constitution to allow President Donald Trump — and any other future president — to be elected to serve a third term.
″No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than three times, nor be elected to any additional term after being elected to two consecutive terms,” the amendment states.
They are trying to make sure Obama can’t run again
The process to amend the US constitution is so convoluted it will never happen again.
Not in time for Trump to have a 3rd term anyway, if Trump even lives that long.
He’s just showing off how eager he is to get on his knees and lick the boots of the administration before they even asked him too. He needs Trump to know what a good boy he is.
Miss me yet?
Bush will win the democratic party nomination in 2028 and he’ll run against Trump.
Please don’t speak this into existence lol
I’ll note that you didn’t specify which Bush
BUSH vs GOYA 2028!
BATTLE of the BEANS!
SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

I mean, the youngest Bush brother hasn’t been activated yet…
Please clap
IT’S TIME TO STOP
OMG. I feel it in my bones
Please step away from the :lathe-of-heaven:
Too real to be a bit
🥰
Hell yeah let’s undo the FDR term limit bill and get more people like him elected.
Eh the term limits were out there in the first place by Republicans terrified of FDR. Trump probably isn’t going to take it and even if he did I could see the Dems pushing Obama, something Obama’s ego would be more than happy to take on.
Yeah, they thought of that, and made sure this proposal would forbid 2 consecutive terms from having a third, just so it wouldn’t apply to Obama
…didn’t say which obama…
Wow, this is unprecedented! Time for bipartisanship to take action!
We’re going to get Obama’s third term with Kamala as VP, aren’t we?
The last thing he wants is to have to do shit
It’s his turn (again)
i mean, given his age and health, even if he had the legal right to a third term i’d be shocked if he made it that far. Him croaking during this term isn’t even something I’d be that surprised about
He would be 86 by the end of a third term, bro is absolutely not making it that far.
Surely the grim spectre of death will stop Trump!
Trump: wriggles out
Ah, well, nevertheless…
They will inter Trump into a golden throne and sacrifice 1000 pool supply company owners per day to keep him alive.
Oh fuck his father lived to 93
Weekend at the Corpse president’s
i prefer the sequel where the corpse does a little shuffle towards making a nuclear strike every time he hears “YMCA”.
Many of those who live to very old age (90+) absolutely did not earn it based on a healthy lifestyle. I know this based on several relatives. Genetics are a helluva drug, plus the healthcare a president receives
Yeah I looked up how long his father lived after I wrote this.
Trump is just the pretext, they are preparing the ground for an unending GOP Presidency.
oh my god they’re actually doing it lmao
They’re doing it for the wrong reasons, but I’d be happy if that limit wasn’t there. It’s fundamentally anti-democratic. Not that the us is a democracy and removing it now will just make fascist consolidation of power so much easier, but still
Nah, keeping a limit forces the MIC and other entrenched powers trying to push the US agenda around the world to stay in the bureaucratic shadows instead of gaining decades in the presidency outright.
Not that the us is a democracy and removing it now will just make fascist consolidation of power so much easier, but still
Passes and spineless dems show they whole spineless asses then trump dies a few months before his third term. Best timeline
Watch lib brains break all over again at how fast someone else picks up the torch after he croaks.
They already are doing the “we must save western civilization” the next term they might cosplay as Mayday from the Handmaiden lol
From the Handmaiden’s Tale*
We do not equivocate Margaret Attwood and Park Chan-Wook in this house
Would he even be alive by a third term?
I wouldn’t have guessed it was a Democratic sponsor.
Why?? This was even before Obama’s 2nd term. Just because they thought they had the numbers?
Honestly, I can’t remember the reasoning. I’m sure there’s a daily Kos article about it or something from back then. I do remember them claiming it wouldn’t apply to Bush, but those of us in left leaning spaces were pretty suspicious.
The current one is different so that unlike that one which would allow Bush or Obama to run again, it would forbid anyone with 2 consecutive terms from a third:

The ACLU is going to fight this hard. Until it passes, then they’ll support it 100%.
