Will be interesting to see how many profiles this shyster has queued up considering it takes 7 days to post when submitting a new profile for everyone else
FDR served 12 years, was elected to serve a total of 16 years ('44) but died in '45.
Anyway.
Interesting proposition. But aside from super majorities in Congress, proposed Constitutional Amendments also must be ratified by 3/4 of the State Legislatures.
Not impossible - but I don't see it happening.
Also -
Language in such an amendment could make it inapplicable to the sitting Prez at the time of it's ratification/adoption.
The amendment limiting a Prez to two terms did not apply to the sitting Prez (Truman)
HST could've been elected & served as Prez 'til the day he died - sometime in the '70s, as I recall.
Realistic chances for a DJT term extension?
Paper slim to non-existent. IMO.
A unique & remarkable era in the history of the Republic.
"That Made The Limit Two Terms"
(Thank God For That!!)
(8 Years Of Obummer Was Hell!)...........................
"After Those Eight Years Of Obummer"
"So...A Trump Obummer Race Wouldve Still Produced"
"A President Called Trump".............................
Repub Prezes who likely would've been elected more than twice - Eisenhower & Reagan.
Reagan is the only post-FDR Prez to get the closest thing to a 3rd Term - the White House retained by his party after 8 years.
And in Reagan's case it was retained by his own Veep - Bush I.
Given how close EnvironmentAl Gore came to pulling it off in '00, it is probable Bill Jefferson "B.J." Clinton would've gotten a 3rd Term - stains on Monica's dress notwithstanding.
