FTA" “Trump “has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation’s decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the time necessary to accomplish that goal,”” - He hasn’t don’t anything yet!! How has he ‘proven himself’
Me as a Tennessean: “I bet it’s Andy Ogles”

Goddamn can I read that man like a fucking book. I’m sorry we’re all trying to vote the bastard out but the State gerrymandered the district because… AND I SHIT YOU NOT… “California does it, so it’s okay if we do it too”. Honest to God what our State Assembly said about breaking Nashville up into a hellscape of gerrymandering.
Do know, he’s an idiot IRL as well. He’s the kind that’s really full of himself and he’s got a super high self-worth in head.
Standard traitor shit.
Surely we would all actually show up to try to flight this, right? If it passed.
Well if the heritage Foundation is going to follow the book of revelation, he needs to be there for 7.5 years.
On one hand: called it. On the other: fuck.
It’s impressive how hard these people lick boots.
But also how shameless they are, doing it in full public view
And the gargling too
And the gagging also
Good fucking luck with that hurdle.
They need a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate; or a conventio called by Congress at the request of two-thirds of the state legislatures. Then it has to be ratified by the legislatures of three-quarters of the states.
Even if they managed a super majority on both sides of Congress for Trumplefuck, there’s no way they’re getting 38 States to agree to that.
Trump is the candidate during next election
Red States let him be an option even though they shouldn’t
He wins enough red States to have a majority
They name him president even though it’s against the Constitution
The supreme Court is packed with his picks so they don’t do anything about it
Tada! Civil war? Dissolution of the USA? Who knows!?!
It’s sad that you guys still think the rule of the constitution is some massive roadblock that they’ve somehow missed. They literally made an Executive Order that just says “No” to the very first sentence of the 14th amendment, do you think none of them noticed? They get to have a vote about ludicrous things, and they get to gleefully destroy the lives of any Republican who dares vote against them. Maybe it gets struck down for the time being? Who cares, the courts are packed, they can realistically just start killing people pretty soon and it’ll start with the disloyals and the true believers as needed as it always does.
You cannot logical trap nor get off on technicalities fascists. It does not matter to them, they will just do what they want anyways, all that matters is if they can crush anyone who tries to stop them.
They are pushing the boundaries of the conversation and they are testing the waters, and every time they’re pushed back on they use the limp push back to consolidate more power because nobody has been willing to actually stop them.
I don’t think the law is a restricting factor for the trump regime.
That’s what the Trump regime wants us to think.
Laws only apply if they are enforced.
Which is why I often find myself saying the Trump admin will face one of two types of justice: vigilante or none.
The Night of the Long Knives would like to have a word with you
Imagine the Dems brought Obama back
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…
Obama served 2 consecutive terms so would be ineligible. They literally wrote this so that only Trump would be eligible.
The amount of seething could power the country in perpetuity
Oh, fuck no. Obama’s leadership is what got us in this mess. He and the Clinton’s drove the Democratic party off a cliff.
Salty downvotes on this comment. Very funny
Imagine trying to pretend the Clintons weren’t just Reaganites, or that Obama wasn’t a total fraud
Lol check out these 2
That will never happen, legally, anyway.
However
22nd amendment says:
Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. …
So what they are gonna do is that:
They are gonna argue that presidents are not “elected” but appointed by the Electoral College, therefore the 22nd amendment doesn’t apply and hereby null and void.
Or just use elect VP + accension to presidency loophole, and run a dead person as President, then trump as VP, since the placeholder name they put for president isn’t alive, VP become president.
Or just cast placeholder names for presidency and VP, and use the Speaker role as acting president.
There are so many loopholes that doesn’t require repealing 22nd amendment.
The 1st is a stretch. To goes so far beyond the meaning and precedent that you might as well annul the whole constitution at that point.
The 2nd doesn’t work, because you must be eligible for president to run as vice president.
As for the speaker, maybe.
I mean, it’s gonna. Every worst case thing is happening all over the place. The constitution is only as good as the people upholding it.
Do they really expect their orange beanbag leader to still be alive in four years? And if he still is, to still be able to know his own name or speak coherently in public?
He only needs to stagger over the four-year line before dropping dead, and Republicans get to stay in charge for four more years.

Actuarial tables for an obese guy of his age reckon 50/50 chance of making it to the end of his term. Of course he has access to better healthcare than most.
Better health care but I gotta imagine day to day odds aren’t so hot for a dude who’s on a diet of McDonalds and Diet Coke. Kind of surprised he’s made it to 78.
I can see him possibly making it that far … but I really don’t think he’ll be making much more sense the older he gets. He could live another 20 years, it doesn’t mean he’ll have all his marbles.
Have you heard that dipshit talk? Making sense isn’t what his followers want from him; his word-salad just needs to come sprinkled with the occasional slur.
It won’t be a test of how much he can continue to make sense
It will be a test to see how far his supporters will be willing to ignore how stupid he will become
I don’t think the outcome of that test will be good.
He’s already short a few marbles, and the cult only seems to like him more for that.
My guess is it’s for the next guy
They know it has no chance to pass. It’s with straight up boot licking, or they think they have a plan to bypass the amendment process.
Weekend At Donnie’s
Stop hand wringing in here. It’s fucking stupid, and a PR play. You need 38 states for a constitutional amendment, and that isn’t happening however you slice it.
It wouldn’t even get that far. You need either two thirds of both House and Senate or for two thirds of the states to call for a constitutional convention just to propose an amendment.
Just shoot however many states are missing govenors in the head, as the SC has ruled the president can order anything illegal. Repeat until passed.
The US has rotten so much on the inside over the past decades, that this decline of the nation is inevitable. Question is only, if people will let the fascists control the decline until the country lies in rubbles, or if people will fight to create a new nation.
But, but, I thought he didn’t need this because he has never served two CONSECUTIVE terms! /s
boot-throating cucks
Bold to assume he would even be elected again after 4 years of fucking it up. He wasn’t last time.
Bold of you to assume the next elections would be fair.
Bold of you to assume there’d be more elections…
/s
I don’t think that’s sarcasm, is it? It sounds like a realistic concern, though fraudulent show-elections are more likely at first.
It was just in case 😉
Personally I think he’ll try and extend term lengths too.
