Summary
Donald Trump refused to rule out seeking a third term as president, telling NBC News there are “methods” to do so and emphasizing, “I’m not joking.”
Though the 22nd Amendment bars presidents from serving more than two terms, Trump suggested possible workarounds, including a VP succession plan.
He cited strong poll support and added, “a lot of people want me to do it.”
Allies like Rep. Andy Ogles and Steve Bannon back the idea. Amending term limits would require a complex constitutional process.
He doesn’t have to rule it out. We already have
The American people have “methods” to remove him should he ever attempt this. And they won’t be “joking” either.
I really want to believe you
Lol the American people drive around decrepit cities and believe they live in the best country in the world, while people in Michigan have water that looks like nesquick. Dumbass
No they don’t. There’s already been multiple failed attempts on his life. People have tired your methods. He has helicopter to get away from the hoards.
While I agree that its unlikely for him to go out that way, failed attempts dont make the chance zero. The people trying that only have to get lucky once, he has to avoid being unlucky every time.
failed attempts dont make the chance zero.
“Today, we were unlucky. But remember, we only have to be lucky once — you have to be lucky always”
Statement from the IRA to Margaret Thatcher after they nearly assassinated her with a bomb.
Hitler had a lot of failed assassination attempts too
But someone still got him shot… oh, wait!
It’s always a first time assassin, incompetent enough to think it’s possible vs a team of professionals trained in the prevention of such events, who are part of a long lived organisation focused on that task alone.
The secret service are dedicated en mass to stopping such events and have been successful the majority of times.
No the chance is not zero, but it’s near enough. You’re welcome to put that to the test. But you’d be better off doing a historical analysis of modern era coups.
Start with something like this video:

P.S Oh right, it’s easier to fantasize about someone else doing an assassination for you. Putting JD Vance in charge. Nice clean and simple fantasy.
The secret service didn’t know (or didn’t care) there was a shooter until after the guy clipped the ear. They failed at the prevention part of their job.
edit: all I’m saying is if they failed once, they could fail again. That’s it. I myself have no intentions of ever setting foot in the states.
That wasn’t the secret service, it was the PA police. But sure roll up and take your shot already if you think it’s easy.
There was one. And it was just a kid who almost accomplished it.
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
That’s the 12th amendment. No, he can’t run for VP and let the POTUS quit
The only legal method of doing this would be repealing the 22nd amendment.
Also, he’ll be dead by then. He’s obese and almost 80.
How have we gotten to the point of just hoping his poor health will solve this problem? Assassination is crazy and shouldn’t be a solution to anything, but I just wish the whole country was not as brainwashed/apathetic to avoid this problem in the first place.
The 22nd amendment was written poorly, and prohibits someone from being elected into the office.
Terrifying fact: the Speaker of the House is third in line, and doesn’t actually have to be a member of Congress. If the VP and President both leave office without a new VP being appointed, the Speaker of the House assumes the Presidency, bypassing both the 12th and 22nd amendments.
He cited strong poll support and added, “a lot of people want me to do it.”
A lot of people would like to have Obama back, too. It’s weird how these monsters want to set up a specific scenario where Obama cannot run again, but donvict can.
That’s weird.
He’ll start a war, internally or externally and use that as an excuse to block elections. Probably takes Zelenski as an example, no elections during wartime…
Or he’ll do a Putin, all election preparations go into a blender, real opponents are disqualified for arbitrary reasons, force his own name on the ballot then declare himself a winner.
Or… as he keeps throwing around, make sure there is voter fraud, hide it 'till it leaks then just proclaim the win/fraudulent elections and stay in power.
I don’t believe the us has what Ukraine has. Could be wrong but i dont think elections can be suspended during wartime. He also doesn’t have the power to declare war. It’s why the us hasn’t technically been in a war since ww2 or korea (I forget what the last official war was)
However it is looking like he is trying already to throw the election process out the window. Likely so it’s easier to rig would be my guess
true, there is the Maduro Method, Putin Method, Orban Method, Erdogan, Jinping…
If you fuckers can’t see the writing on the wall, you never will. Sitting on a keyboard complaining is not going to stop this. And HUGE warning to Canadians. GET OUT AND VOTE!!!
