"We should all take a good hard look at what’s happening in the US. Not the noise or the clamour, but the bleak constitutional reality of it. This is what happens when you give up on the rule of law."

"But while this [talk of a third term] can seem like classic Trump 'shiny object' distraction stuff, I think it’s worth paying a little more attention to it. That’s because grassroots Trump supporters, at least, are open to it."

Joyce Vance Civil Discourse “Trump’s Third Term” 4/1/2025
[It makes me sick to my stomach that 45% of Americans still think he is just fine. But it is not the majority.]
![Joyce Vance Civil Discourse “Trump’s Third Term” 4/1/2025
[It makes me sick to my stomach that 45% of Americans still think he is just fine. And 50% with immigration.]
In the most current Reuters/Ipsos poll, 45% of Americans approve of Trump's job performance. He comes in slightly higher, around 50%, when people are asked about immigration. George W. Bush had a 90% approval rating following Sept. 11, 2001.
Still, the notion of Trump running for a third term in office continues to surface. At a House Republican retreat in January, Trump told the crowd, in that way he has of suggesting he is about to do something impermissible, “I think I’'m not allowed to run again.” Turning to Speaker Mike Johnson he asked, “Am I allowed to run again, Mike?” The answer is resoundingly no. The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, added in 1951 after President Franklin Roosevelt’s four terms in office, provides that “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 President more than once.”
But that didn’t keep Steve Bannon from calling for Trump to run again, during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). He told the crowd, "We want Trump in 28.”](https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/114/263/389/045/222/415/original/2b428a1fc5ac4b8d.jpeg "Joyce Vance Civil Discourse “Trump’s Third Term” 4/1/2025

#Trump’s #ThirdTerm Fantasy: Constitutionally Impossible, Politically Dangerous
The Broad Lens · Trump’s Third Term Power PlayBy Greg Collier President Donald Trump says he’s “not joking” about serving a third term. But if that’s true, then the joke is on the Constitution, and on anyone expecting a peaceful transfer of power…

"The time to get serious about knocking out the idea of a third term is now, before he can get it in circulation and give it currency. Two is more than enough."

"For his self-serving political purposes, expect Trump to keep bringing a third term up—especially as he and his priorities continue to tank in the polls.
Think of it as a leash he can use to control the Republican Party. Every time he feels his lame duck status growing, he can yank that leash hard to re-assert his power and freeze any other Republicans from emerging."

I guess it’s a trait of dictators. Do you remember the time Putin manipulated the system so he could stay in power for years?
This is a colossal red flag…

Laying the groundwork for a third term …
The greatest evil is not done in those sordid dens of evil that Dickens loved to paint ... but is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clear, carpeted, warmed, well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. #EU #Greenland #conservatives #trump #DonaldTrump #Musk #elonmusk #tesla #teslatakedown #TrumpIsARussianAsset #gop #vance #republicans #republican #uspol #uspolitics #politics #bbc #thirdterm
For once trump is 100% correct. There are methods for a third term, they are - Ripping up the constitution, civil war, treason and insurrection… all of which are perfectly fine for MAGA as long as it by them. #EU #Greenland #conservatives #trump #DonaldTrump #Musk #elonmusk #tesla #teslatakedown #TrumpIsARussianAsset #gop #vance #republicans #republican #uspol #uspolitics #politics #bbc #thirdterm
