“If I happen to be president and I see somebody who’s doing well and beating me very badly, I say, ‘Go down and indict them.’ They’d be out of business,” Trump said. “They’d be out of the election.”
If he’s president then he’s in his second term. How would someone be then beating him in an election?
“We are going to win four more years. And then after that, we’ll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years.”
or how about
“I have to the right to do whatever I want as president.”
or
“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution.”
or how about when he admired Xi Jinping:
“He’s now president for life. President for life. And he’s great. I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll give that a shot someday.”
Exactly. If Trump becomes President then we’ll still have elections, but they’ll be like the Russian elections. You can vote for Trump or you can go to prison. At best, votes against Trump wouldn’t be counted. Trump would “win” all future elections with 99% of the vote.
And after Trump passes away, the reins of power would be transferred to some other dictator who would carry on this “American tradition” of imprisoning opponents and rigging elections.
Or just declare that amendment null and void. Then arrest any judge who rules otherwise and replace them with judges that say “The amendment doesn’t specifically say that Trump can’t run for as many terms as he likes, it just bars everyone else.”
‘When this amendment was written, it was written specifically about FDR who was, as we all know, a democrat. No reasonable person could possibly interpret it to apply to a republican president.’

Well, let’s see what Trump has said about that:

Oh sweet summer child.
He will do what Putin did and argue the amendment only applies to consecutive terms and his stooges in the Supreme Court will rubber stamp it.

I don’t think the constitution will be more than toilet paper at that point.
If he could wipe his ass on it, I can guarantee it would be covered in smears of post-digested McDonalds.
