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.
That used to be a word that meant the bureaucrats who knows how to run things regardless of who was in charge.
It was Republicans who turned it into a conspiracy theory.
I mean originally I think it was aimed at G HW Bush who was a career CIA man who became president and brought a bunch of CIA types into government. At one point it had some teeth. Highjacked by trump and cons to con.
