Loophole not viable.

Legal Scholars Dispute Constitutional 'Loophole' for a Third Trump Term - FactCheck.org

President Donald Trump said in a March 30 interview that "there are methods" for him to serve a third term in the White House, and a Daily Mail article referred to a "loophole" in the 22nd Amendment that would make it possible. But legal experts told us the "loophole" legal argument is...

So-called "experts". What the fuck do they know?

 

[RichDelBoy]

He found a loophople quite a long time ago, run as vice president, then take over when the VP steps down. All perfectly constitutional.

...and if it doesn't work, there are generations of Trumps that will outlive both you and I...so the future is Trump....FOREVER!

Happy Thursday.

He's not interested.

He's already gone on record to say he's just winding people up about it.

and when the time comes he'll just stand again if he wants to - who's going to stop him?

You're talking about the same guy who went on record stating Haitians were eating peoples pets
(Ok it was a re-tweet, but this guy talks more bollocks than a room full of Labour MPs)

Everything that comes out of that stupid blow up doll like gob is a lie. He couldn't lie straight in bed. Anyone who can seriously point to what he has said as a defence of their position needs to wake the fuck up.

I've heard it be said that he's so crooked that if he swallowed an iron bar, he'd shit a spring...

His approach winds you up a treat. So it works well giving him licence to live rent free in your head 24/7.

This is straight from the MAGA book of put downs

Living rent free in someone else’s head is overrated.

It’s usually very cramped and poorly furnished.

Tempting for no rent though.

What about utilities?

Is it? I see it used regularly by lots of people across the political spectrum. It's an apt saying in these days of binary political thinkin

I'm not certainly not MAGA....gone on record to say I just think Trump's stupid and incompetent and that anyone who thinks otherwise (ie. he's some sage fascist overlord with a plan rather than a simian chucking shit) is a rather silly conspiracy loon who watches too many grifters (although they wouldn't call them that) online.

Refer you to a previous exchange. Again.

Masked cops kidnapping people off the streets, women's rights being curtailed, sending in troops to LA, transgender people being kicked out of the army, the firing of prominent Black people from senior positions, the attempts to erase Black culture, the demonising of the left, of protesters, vanity military parades for the leader, press only faithful to the regime being given time and accreditation, the calling of lawmakers and political opponents "enemies of the state" etc etc.

Project 2025.

Some people need to do some research, instead of acting as if the orange thing is just some imbecile who can't do much damage. He is surrounded by those whose stated aim is to overthrow institutions and checks and balances, and they are doing well so far.

From stopping elections in Florida (a blueprint and a tester for more widespread fascism); to loading the SC to do their bidding, giving the creature immunity etc; to setting the NG and the Marines on peaceful protestors; to firing thousands of federal workers causing plane crashes, and deaths by flooding for some ideological c rap about small government and "owning the libs". Installing loyalists everywhere, not only those unqualified morons in high office, but throughout the DOJ and other federal institutions so they can't stop him, like the first term as he tears through the constitution. Let's not forget the illegal deportations and the cruelty, which is the point, and the shameless grifting and corruption, enriching himself and others to the tune of billions of dollars, whilst gutting medicare and medicaid etc.

Yes, he really isn't anything to be concerned about .

TBF it is possible to overstate the danger of Project 2025. These are attempts (and they are real) to tinker with the existing system in a way that they think will benefit them politically, and there is a lot of continuity in thought, funding and personnel with all the previous efforts along these lines - gerrymandering, voter restrictions, interference in judicial processes and abusing state and federal legislation etc.

They are in that sense dangerous and these measures will work to an extent - but they do not address the actual problem for those responsible for Project 2025, which is that those outcomes and especially those sorts of politicians are ones that noone on left or right actually wants. This will mean they'll both create a popular opposition and remove the popular support they need to stand against any serious opposition (a lesson that they should have learned in 2015/16 when the GOP establishment were trashed by Trump).

I would have thought your first paragraph greatly outweighs the second though.

You're assuming there will be future elections. That's not the plan. See Florida as a starting point.
