Republican President Donald Trump said on Sunday he was not joking about seeking a third presidential term, which is barred by the U.S. Constitution, but that it was too early to think about doing so.
Trump, who took office on January 20 for his second, non-consecutive White House term, has made vague allusions to seeking a third one but addressed it directly on Sunday in a telephone interview with NBC News.
“No, I’m not joking. I’m not joking,” Trump said, but “it is far too early to think about it.”
“There are, there are methods which you could do it, as you know,” he said. He declined to elaborate on any specific methods.
I mean he’s not wrong, we do know. He has the court and congress in his pocket. No ones going to defy him. He can do what ever the fuck he wants as a unitary executive dictaor.
An Amendment takes 2/3 of Congress to approve though, not just a majority.
I can imagine plenty of Dems in Congress would say “fuck it, let’s try Obama again” though and roll the dice on approving it :-/
Wrong person, but I would roll the dice with obama again lol
