Since the Deep State is obviously about to kick Biden out, and since Harris is unfit to serve, it's time for discussion of one of my favorite parts of the Constitution - Amendment XXII.
This rushed Amendment, hastily drafted after the death of FDR, prevents a person who has served two terms as POTUS from BEING ELECTED again. Please read it for yourselves if you doubt this.
It does NOT amend or alter Article II and Amendment XII as regards eligibility to BE President - it just prevents a former President from getting back in office BY BEING ELECTED.
So- Biden resigns, Harris appoints Barack Obama VP and resigns, and he's back!
Please argue, from the text of XXII, why this is not possible.
Not being President again assures Barack will continue to live.
That's not going to happen for a myriad of reasons. Biden isn't going to resign. Harris wouldn't appoint Obama if he did. I doubt Obama even wants to be president again.
So it’s Trump vs Obama 2024. I can picture Trump projecting Obama’s fake certificate of live birth on giant screens ..and TV cameras turning away.
Why didn’t he fix it the first time?
It’s kind of a moot point wouldn’t you say?
Considering obozo is currently very active in what brandin and company is doing
The problem would be that with the current makeup of the senate, if Harris resigned it would leave the Senate with a 50/50 split, and they can appoint someone all they want but it has to be approved through the senate, and with a 50/50 split it can be strung out forever.
I do not get the fixation on Obama, he was never more than a Resident, just like Biden.
I am pretty sure he is quite happy doing whatever he is doing right now.
If something isn’t done to get the criminals out of the government, this country will be no place to live....
biden has more they are hiding... my Lord.. if that were Trump.!! and biden’s son .. pictures of him with children. is there no more shame in congress? is there no one who would take the effort to get him out?
Barr is what Washington is... fake and full of himself... and hates a good man... Trump.
I am frustrated beyond that word... why are they allowing all this to go on and we as country are going down the tubes ... or the toilet.....
Your lazy left socialist body will be out by November... and that is too far away to fix what you have committed!
There’s a line of succession that goes beyond the VP.
OK, maybe BO, it seems a longshot however.
Who else could replace JB?
He was only part-time, as I recall, so maybe he’s only accumulated one term?
I don’t know why, but your post made me laugh when my mind went down the road where Trump runs for office again, and the Left says “HE WON THE 2020 ELECTION BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE CHEATED SO HE IS INELIGIBLE FOR ANOTHER TERM!”
LOL, that snapping sound was the whiplash in my neck! Hey, it isn’t like they don’t change their minds in an instant with no pretense at even an explanation or justification!
Remember when the Soviet Union was allied with the Nazis in their quest to carve up Poland, and the American Left took to the streets in droves to oppose US entry into the war...then, when the Nazis launched Barbarossa, those same people were, within minutes of the news, agitating for the US to jump into the war with both feet!
No explanation, no “Oops, my bad”, nothing! Just a shameless 180 to advance their goals!
That is a good question... but hell has no fury like a man being attacked for 4 years... I thought he would do it all the second term and there was no second...
who knew the dems would be able to pull this...
you know they are making a mess of this land.. and the rest are letting them.. for fear Trump will be back..
You know why they hate him.. because he has it all... and they can’t stand the fact he is sure of himself and doesn’t mind talking about his success...
Men just have to wave their junk in her face and she’d be on her knees tying to please herself.
Yep, there's no need. He already runs things behind the scenes.
Actually, it wasn't that quick. U.S. communists were so micromanaged by Stalin, it took a couple weeks. Because Stalin was so depressed by Hitler's betrayal, he holed up in his dacha. U.S. communists were still calling FDR an imperialist until word came down from Stalin.
It would have been so easy to draft an Amendment that said, “Any person who has served two terms as President subsequently ceases to be eligible to the office”.
But that’s not what they did, is it?
Ineligible the first time
Ineligible the second time
Ineligible forever
But that doesn’t mean Soroznazi, the CCP, and the Iranian dictators won’t put him back in
I think Barry is just fine hiding in the background, getting all his destructive policies enacted and letting Joe take the fall
Well l take this as a intellectual exercise. I think theoretically It’s possible. They find a way to dump Kamala and Joe can appoint Obongo. Then invoke the 25th. The GOP would go along considering the alternatives are Harris or Pelosi. That said it seems like a fantasy
