My God help us.

1. If the fucker doesn't croak

there will be nothing recognizable about this country by then!

[gab13by13]

2. There is talk of allowing Trump a third term.

[Pototan]

3. Well, if that happens Obama will also be eligible

I'll take that match up any day.

[LilElf70]

5. True

But he won't run.

[ITAL]

7. Nah

The way they proposed Amendment reads is you're only eligible for a third term if you haven't served two consecutive terms already. So basically the possibility only kicks in if you win once and lose once (or don't run immediately after your first term).

8. How are you going to get two thirds

of the Senate and the House and a majority vote in both branches of the legislatures in 38 states if the amendment is tailored to just Trump?

That would be a pipe dream. If one wanted a new amendment, they would have to just repeal the existing one to set up a Obama-Trump match-up.

11. You want 86 year old Biden to run again in 2028?

I'd much rather 68 year old Obama run again. Clinton would be 82, same as Trump.

[Pototan]

15. My mistake. Corrected on edit

I meant Obama, not Biden, as I said in reply #8

[ITAL]

14. I'm not saying I want it

I'm just saying what the proposed amendment says.

[Polybius]

10. Let's just outright repeal the stupid 22nd

If could happen if every living ex-President comes out in support of it.

4. That's 206 too many.

I'm thinking Amendment 25. It's time.
