> The elections aren't known to be broken yet
Sweet summer child. Let me unfold a very precise prediction:
* By the end of 2nd-3rd year. Trump/congress/republican party would propose an amendment that president could rule two consecutive terms. It would be accepted.
* Trump would be elected to the next term.
* By the end of 6th-7th year there would be proposal to extend presidency to three terms.
* Rinse and repeat.
If you think it's unreal I have very bad news for you: how often it happens in real world.
- kelnos 2y agoThere are people in the GOP already talking about a constitutional amendment to allow Trump to serve a third term, so your first point is already happening. The problem is in getting 2/3 of the state legislatures to ratify it. I don't see how that could reasonably happen. Many other countries have constitutions that can be changed directly by their central/federal government. We don't have that. It's a lot harder to amend the US constitution.
