sacrifice him on the lawn of the white house.
We sacrifice him by dropping a couch on him like a cartoon
It's how he would want to go.

Apparently that's not legal. If you can't run for president you can't be vice president. Not that Trump would care but it's not the legal loophole some think it is.
That's not actually clear. The 12th says if you're ineligible to be president then you're ineligible to be VP. But the 22nd doesn't say you're ineligible to be president, it says you're ineligible to be elected president. That's a meaningful enough distinction to leave plenty of room for interpretation.

The GOP justices swoop in with a ruling they pulled right outta their asses.
Where's the Parliamentarian when you need them? Why aren't they stopping anything but minimum wage bills?? They hold so much power, the Dems told me so!
Funniest outcome: the Supreme Court rules that he's good to run for a third term, so the Democrats decide to run Obama (probably their best chance short of actually trying to help people) but the Supreme Court says "no you've served two terms already".
SC says that its okay to run for a third term but adds a statute of limitations that says in inappropriate to wait too long between terms to run.

You can serve 3 terms but only if you didn't serve two consecutive terms
Brazil is kinda like that. Can serve any number of terms, but only two consecutives. Kinda meh, but we would be stuck with Bolsonaro if Lula couldn't run again.
If he won or lost, I still think the funniest thing would have been for Biden to die on inauguration day
People were wringing hands and clutching pearls about Trump destroying democracy and here he is actively talking about the next election.
All he'll have to do is say he's not leaving the office after the 2028 election and Democrats will be in shambles.
ah, but you've forgotten the dems ultimate gambit, their 'Trump card', if you will,
I'd like to see ol' Donny boy wriggle his way out of THIS one! 
Weird how there's a word for not normal that the democrats were using a lot to describe trumpers but then stopped using.. was it too rude
😤
It'll cause so many processing errors for them. After all how do you combat something you can't 
against?
My prediction of Donald Trump (R) vs George W. Bush (D) is turning more and more true.
American democracy will finally officially die in 2028! Only 3 more years.
Don't let democrats resuscitate this rotting corpse again!
Death to America 
when was it ever alive
Never. But The myth is still alive. Which keeps people from seeing the system as completely illegitimate, and therefore worthy of being overthrown.
Looking forward to the 10,000 year reign of the burger emperor, his golden throne (the toilet) fueled by the souls of a 1000 immigrants being sacrificed a day.
Gets re-elected in a landslide and then immediately dies before the inauguration begins as 70 years of Big Macs finally tips the scales of his Dorian Gray/Fall of the House of Usher dark compact that has allowed him to live for so long and his heart explodes
Democracy is when there’s elections apparently
Don’t you love the people who talk about how the Mexican Party of Morena is “evil and corrupt” for winning two elections in a row 🤣
I remember how they were going on and saying that “it’s good Mexico has a no re election rule”
Like bruh
I don’t know what to say people
Just just …..
Euros are not ok
Germany had the same Chancellor for like 15 years: It's OK, people keep voting for her.
Bolivia had the same president for 8 years: dictatorship!! "We coup who we want"- Musk
😂
There really is no way without blatantly disregarding the constitution. It would lead to the collapse of the United States.
Surely there must be some downsides, though.
Yeah, it's gonna fucking turbocharge the fascism that is already inbuilt
It would lead to the collapse of the United States.
The US has blatantly disregarded the constitution loads of times. To pretend that breaking it now would necessarily lead to collapse is a bit weird.

There is. The Constitution isn't clear on how the 22nd (anyone who has served two terms is ineligible to be elected president) and the 12th (anyone ineligible to be president is ineligible to be Vice President) interact. Notice the difference in wording, the 22nd is specifically about being elected president, not being president.
So theoretically he could be elected as VP and have his running mate resign to give him the presidency again. The only thing that would really stop that is a Supreme Court ruling, but the Supreme Court is mostly Trump appointees.
Or of course he could take a page from his buddy Bukele and have the Supreme Court say "nah you're good to be elected again" despite the Constitution clearly saying otherwise.

I don't even think the resign part is necessary for the right to continue business as usual.
Oh please. Iowa isnt going to secede because of that.
If everybody work together we can end America before that, just put some effort to it.
They should just pass the Schwarzenegger Amendment and get Musk elected
if he won in 2020 it's already his third term isn't it?
Real Thomas Hobbes hours.

“I don’t think there’s any ‘one weird trick’ to getting around presidential term limits,” Muller said.
"Well, I'd like to see ol Donny Trump wriggle his way out of THIS jam!"
In addition, pursuing a third term would require extraordinary acquiescence by federal and state officials, not to mention the courts and voters themselves.
"Ah! Well. Nevertheless,"
