    The fact that him being president a third time is unconstitutional, is irrelevant unless there is some who is willing and able to stop him.

    The founding fathers and those who wrote most of the amendments legitimately didn’t think American voters would be as stupid as they are being now, unfortunately.

      The caveat being that at the time, American voters consisted almost entirely of landholding white men. I.E. those that thought like they did.

      That’s not true though. They thought the lower and middle class would ruin the country of allowed to vote. That’s why you had requirements to own property and be of certain age and race for most of this countries life.

        Some of them thought that and some thought owning land gave a person a more vested interest and made them less susceptible to manipulation.

    They act like Trump will still be alive then. How long can a fast food eating, never exercising, stimulant addict live for anyway? Even the best doctors in the world can’t fix aging. He’s 79 years old, and already showing signs of mental and physical decline.

      His dad lived til 94 and his mom until 88. I’m not holding out hope on that end. His faculties don’t really matter, just like Reagan’s second term being primarily run by Nancy and her astrologer. Sure death will come for him as it does everyone, questionable what state the world and nation will be in by then.
