Summary
Donald Trump refused to rule out seeking a third term as president, telling NBC News there are “methods” to do so and emphasizing, “I’m not joking.”
Though the 22nd Amendment bars presidents from serving more than two terms, Trump suggested possible workarounds, including a VP succession plan.
He cited strong poll support and added, “a lot of people want me to do it.”
Allies like Rep. Andy Ogles and Steve Bannon back the idea. Amending term limits would require a complex constitutional process.
The issue in Ukraine is twofold.
The country is under martial law, which forbids elections and 20% of the country’s electorate is under foreign occupation in wartime. Thus poisoning any election result because 1/5th of the territory’s people didnt get to vote.
the US presumably, would not have the second problem
“Presumably” is carrying that sentence.
The only scenario where US territory comes under occupation is one where the US is in complete and total anarchy, where their Navy isnt stopping European, Chinese, or Russian forces from landing on its own shores. Any other scenario, North America is safe from Overseas invasion.
even in a war scenario, Mexico and Canada aren’t going to try to occupy American territory.
I suppose the only other scenario would be if there was a successionist movement that tried to leave the Union.
