there are legal avenues for him to become president again, Rossi said.

"Only under Donald Trump would you have a president that even speculates, ponders or contemplates serving a third term. We're in a different world."

My issue is there is no one to replace him. Just look at how the kinder, gentler America turned out. Whoever succeeds him is going to have to demonstrate his/her sharp elbows from the moment they announce. Like I said we'll never replace him.

Trump 28.

I am down with it.

[nickcarraway]

His only child that is eligible to be president is Tiffany Trump.

[Kleon]

The legal issues are minor and can be cleared up by the Supreme Court. He can run if he feels physically able.

Amendment 22:

Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

Section 2. This Article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several states within seven years from the date of its submission to the states by the Congress.

Sorry ... Donald J Trump is not eligible to be elected President again.

Deal with it.

I would think that what’s needed is a combination of George Patton and George Wallace-none out there. Churchill did a lot of warning about Hitler just like Trump warned us about the Chicoms. Eventually voters come around but remember Kamala got 48% of the vote.

[HYPOCRACY]

False. All his children are natural born citizens and she isn’t eligible because she’s only 31.

[MinorityRepublican]

Whoever succeeds him is going to have to demonstrate his/her sharp elbows from the moment they announce. Like I said we'll never replace him.

If we have more Republicans in Congress and Trump is able to get more federal judges confirmed.

The landscape should be different.

[Sacajaweau]

Slow news day??

The answer is NO! It would take a Constitutional Amendment.

[Kleon]

Read the amendment closely. He’s eligible because he hasn’t yet served two consecutive terms.

[nickcarraway]

Sorry, Don, Eric, Ivanka, and Baron are not eligible. Their mothers were not citizens at the time of their births

[nickcarraway]

Sorry, Don, Eric, Ivanka, and Baron are not eligible. Their mothers were not citizens at the time of their births, only later.

[nickcarraway]

she isn’t eligible because she’s only 31.

Where do you get that idea? She doesn't have to be eligible today in 2025. She turns 35 about a month before the 2028 election.

[Fledermaus]

Only one parent required. Read the Constitution again. And try to comprehend it.

[Responsibility2nd]

?????

Last time anyone looked - ALL his children were born in the US.

[Jamestown1630]

That didn’t stop Obama...

[HYPOCRACY]

No. Take it up with Grok. They are all natural born citizens. Done arguing with you.

[Fledermaus]

And he wouldn’t be eligible if there was an amendment.

[nickcarraway]

I was told up and down by Freepers that BOTH parents had to be citizens at the time of birth to be eligible to be president? A HUGE deal was made of this?

Now it just disappeared?

[Jim Robinson]

No.
