The constitution limits a president to two terms. Playing the wife game is simply an end run around the prohibition and certainly against the intent. If they want to remove that prohibition, do so. Can we also get rid of direct election of senators as well and go back to their being assigned by the state legislatures?

So, I’m thinkin’ someone needs to submit a piece of legislation that prohibits relatives by marriage of blood line from running for office for 50 years after their relative has held said office. Maybe out as far as 3rd cousin and great great grand kids.
