Steve Bannon: Trump Can Run for a Third Term in 2028

The top Trump ally appeared to reference the wording of the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, which states, "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice."

Trump should run against Hillary/Kamala. Just to get the band back together again.

And people wonder why President for Life Vlad is his Super Hero.

Bannon is a fat bloated sack of pus.

May the lord snuff out Trump before then.

Bannon reminds me of a blubbery African crested porcupine turned completely inside out by a gang of rabid baboons.

For some reason.

Bannon looks like an infected toe.

Republican lawyer Mike Davis, who was reportedly in line for the role of attorney general, noted that the Constitution does not specify whether this applies only to consecutive terms.

That guy is a giant piece of s*&^.

The wording is very clear to anyone who isn't a giant piece of s*&^.

"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice."

Sounds like JD will be at the top of the ticket, resign upon inauguration, and be appointed to the newly vacant Vice-President slot.

You know, the Trump legal team has a point in this case. We concur. President Trump can run as many more times as he chooses.

He'll be lucky if he makes to next summer.

I'll bite and chime in on this one, on one hand I believe our Republic should have someone new in 2028 and continue on the Democratic process of bringing fresh ideas and new perspectives. Which is what I truly believe. As well ... Watching the ---- show of Biden an 80+ man who wasn't actually "there" as President has lead to the current destabilized world we live in.

On the other, the hilarious thought of it happening and what would be used to justify it ... Democrats did everything, and I mean everything to destroy that man's first term in office (to the point I'm not even sure it could be called a term). Then after he left office tried to bankrupt him, throw him in prison, and casually looked the other way at attempts on his life. So ---- it, if it happens it happens. Not my problem.

If he runs, Dems can put Barack Obama against him. Hell even Slick Willy. Anyways Trump will die of old age before his next term or Vance will 25th amendment him.

No I don't think Trump is allowed to run again based on a non-idiocracy reading of the constitution. Guess we'll see what Beef Supreme has to say about that though.

I still can't believe that Trump was allowed to run again much less take the office of POTUS due to the fact that he is an insurrectionist. Apparently the Constitution is just a God damned piece of paper after all.

The Constitution is what the SCOTUS says it is.

Which is why Ralph Nader/Jill Stein helping the Republicans win in 2000, 2016, 2024 was a problem, since they allowed the GOP to cement in place a court that will twist that Constitution to suit the GOP for the next 30 years. And that 30 years isn't even taking into account the disenfranchisement of voters that SCOTUS will encourage to prevent the GOP from ever losing control.

The gullible stupidity and spoon-fed faux victim complex is absurd.

Do you not see how stupid you look saying this nonsense?

It's not just a piece of paper.

It's a cudgel to be used to bludgeon your opposition when you have no good, sound reason to enact policy.

#17 | Posted by jpw at 2024-12-18 08:33 AM

No

#18 | Posted by THEBULL at 2024-12-18 10:12 AM

He was president for four years. That is a term.

Boo ------- hoo he did not get everything he wanted. Tough ----. No president gets everything they want. That is the way it works.

Steve Bannon is the personification of unwanted ---- lingus

---- MAGAT scum

Trumpy cannot run again. Thank the Gawds.

And he cannot eliminate birthright citizenship either.

Not without changing the U.S. constitution.

But facist dictators can dream can't they?

And he cannot eliminate birthright citizenship either.

Not permanently, but he plans on ruling by executive orders anyway.

Trumpy has a lot nefarious plans. Most will never become reality.

Executive orders still must be constitutional or they are not legally binding.

He is just talking out his arse as usual hoping his "Roy Cohn" will come along and somehow make it come true.

Executive orders still must be constitutional or they are not legally binding.

And who gets to vote 6-3 on that?
