Eh, maybe the Constitution is not that big deal after all...

1. For the win, Soph!

It's always amused me that it was Republicans who forced through the 22nd Amendment limiting a president to two terms.

[Wounded Bear]

2. Backlash for FDR...

sadly, it still helps Repubs in the long run. It took FDR 3+ terms in office to turn things around after Repub dominance since the Civil War. Now, Repubs can do more damage in 2 terms than Dems can fix in the next 2.

9. +1

3. Excellent point.

I seem to recall another recent CON pResident credited with the quip about the Constitution as just “a goddamn piece of paper.” I believe it was the War-Criminal-in-Chief (or maybe his torture-advocate VP) who was always looking for ways to weasel around the rules, the law, and even the Geneva Convention.

4. Or Bill Clinton would be in his seventh term

5. Great point!

This needs to spread far and wide.

6. Obama -- the most admired man 11 years in a row!

[gratuitous]

7. Republicans are less concerned about their oath of office

Than they are interested in protecting the oaf in the Oval Office.

8. Great alliteration!!!!

[aggiesal]

12. Pendejo45 is the "Oaf of Office" n/t

10. Interesting point. So even if the Republicans find some illegal way to beat the Constitution.....

..... that would also make it possible for Obama to run again.

That would be fun to watch that debate. Should we or shouldn't we open the door for Obama to run.

I guess Trump's dream of being President for life will be stymied by his nemesis from Kenya!

11. They would give it to Trump

and ask him to take a Sharpie and cross out the parts he doesn't want

[MichaelSoE]

13. Let's remind them it was the Constitution that put him into office even though the majority said

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo!
