Damn, no kidding.these sumbitches are wrapped way too tight.
I'll be on @seanhannity 2nite @FoxNews at 9pm ET and will explain how @realDonaldTrump will be eligible for a 3rd term due to the illegal attempts by Comey, Dems, and media , et al attempting to oust him as @POTUS so that's why I was named to head up the 2024 re-election.

Nobody told you to read it.move along
I hear the sound of Socialist heads exploding.
LMaO
Well... since the Democrats, specifically the Clinton campaign, colluded with the FBI and others to deny the people’s choice from November 2016 to the present day... we’ve been ripped off by 4 years.
LoL.exactly
The ill-considered impeachment efforts against President Donald Trump have seriously interfered with his first term as president. Thus, argues constitutional scholar William Mattox in The Wall Street Journal, if acquitted, Trump should be eligible for a third term, notwithstanding the two-term limit in the 22nd Amendment.
Mattox deploys a sports analogy: “In the National Football League, teams can challenge a call on the field — but there’s a risk. If instant replay doesn’t merit overturning the call, the challenging team loses one of its three timeouts. That discourages frivolous challenges and keeps the game flowing, while also providing a way to reverse egregious errors.”
Hence, a third term for the president: “That would allow him to make up for the time lost advancing the agenda that voters elected him to enact. It would preserve impeachment for genuine offenses but discourage its use for disputed ones and for mere politics. Absent such an amendment, and in an era when government is divided more often than not, impeachment seems likely to become an increasingly common means of opposition.”
Never give a libtard an even break.
FDR already set the precedent. He was a Dem with a communist wife...they owe us just one. Then worry about precedent. It’d be worth discussing it just to watch their heads explode in despair.
Under the 22nd amendment, an individual who fills an unexpired presidential term lasting greater than two years is also prohibited from winning election as president more than once
Sounds as if a Normal person would just say what the joke was instead of saying in a snarky manner “sounds as if some on here don’t understand the joke” :)
The term of office for both the vice president and the president is four years. ... Additionally, neither the Constitution’s eligibility provisions nor the Twenty-second Amendment’s presidential term limit explicitly disqualify a twice-elected president from serving as vice president.
I suppose if the Senate were to vote to remove him, 12 months of President Pence then two more terms of President Trump. I can hear the dems heads asplodin already.
He has a point, it would be a deterrent from it happening again...rather than a precedent.
President Trump said he would accept the results of the 2020 election and that he only jokes about running for a third term because it drives the media crazy.
“I only joke,” Trump said of his third term talk. “I joke and I say, ‘Watch! I will drive Chuck Todd crazy.’”
“You will accept the results?” Todd asked Trump, referencing the 2020 election.
“One hundred percent. Sure,” Trump responded.
“Whatever happens in 2020. You lose, you’ll be like, ‘You’re not going to like it,’ but you’ll walk out?” Todd asked again.

In April, Trump joked that he would be in office “ at least for 10 or 14 years.”
Trump tweeted a meme Friday that seemed to suggest he would be president for eternity.
Lol. He is learning from the troll master.
Huckabee says some weird stuff. He was on Varney and made some comment in reference to um, digestive processes. I thought Varney was going to croak.
BIOYA....wasn’t posting to you busybody.
