When Donald Trump took the oath of office once again, it was the last time he’d be able to do so under the country’s constitution. But that hasn’t stopped his team from flirting with the idea of running again, writes Alex Hannaford – and the Democrats are nowhere to be seen...

Summary

Plans for a potential Trump third term are already being discussed, despite constitutional limitations.

Trump’s former strategist Steve Bannon has suggested they’re “working on it,” while Trump himself has made several hints about running again after 2028.

Some Republicans, like Congressman Andy Ogles, have proposed amending the 22nd Amendment to allow three terms.

Constitutional law professor Michele Goodwin warns that Trump’s administration has already shown “a display of lawlessness” with controversial executive orders and policies, while critics note Democratic opposition has been largely absent, allowing these discussions to gain traction.

      He once complained about all these immigrants coming from shithole countries, and wondering why we couldnt allow them in from nice like Sweden.

      Hey, Dickhead! Its because WE are a shithole country, just a slightly better one than some others, so they come here. Why would people want to leave a successful government like Sweden’s, with a country that ranks near the top of personal happiness to come HERE?
