It takes much longer than 4 years to amend or unamend (which would be required in this case). He’s out in January 2029 without a doubt.

- popinman322 2y agoThe executive branch is currently ignoring the law. Why would they start following it in 2029?
- hedora 2y agoHe's already floating the idea of a third term, and the house is considering a constitutional amendment that would allow it. Of course, that'll be a moot point if he continues to just ignore the constitution as he has been so far this entire term, and the other two branches continue to just let him.

- kcplate 2y agoDo you understand how long and what it takes to ratify an amendment? There a reason why we haven’t done one in 33 years and that one took 202 years. The process is designed to be difficult, it’s much more than a simple majority and bang of a gavel. We are still working on approving the equal rights amendment. That’s one that started 102 years ago, and we have been trying to get the 3/4 state’s agreement for it for only 53 years. So no, I seriously doubt with a 50/50 divided electorate in this country that we will repeal the 22nd amendment in the less than 4 years that the US would have to do it before Trump could run again.
