during a meeting with Xi, they talked about removing term limits for US presidents. XI lamented that it's annoying having to deal with new people every 4 to 8 years and that "america has too many elections" and Trump agreed and hinted he is interested in tearing up the rules on limited presidents to only 2 terms and claimed that "americans want this" ...

i do actually think it should change to 3 terms, but the change shouldn't apply retroactively. but I think both Congress jobs should be 12 year limits, too.

just curious as to how this would work in your minds It's not even the likelyhood of it happening that you should focus on or the mechanism by which it could happen... Its that trump has demonstrated time and time again that he views the office of the president as an authoritarian power for him to take hold of and he has absolutely no respect for the constitution. That alone is reason enough for him to never hold office again. --- "The soul in the darkness sins, but the real sinner is he who caused the darkness." - Victor Hugo ... Copied to Clipboard!

Scenario: Trump removes terms limits, which allows Obama to get a third termAnother secnario: Trump removes term limits, loses election anyway, AOC eventually runs for office and subsequently is succesfully re-elected for the next 40-50 years. --- Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images. ...

I mean term limits on the presidency have only been in place since the 1950s
Wikipedia tells me there have been attempts from both republicans and democrats to remove term limits not saying I agree with it but its not that crazy assuming it was put through the proper channels i.e ratified as an amendment to the constitution through congress. But thatll never happen --- The words of The Golden Eel have been revealed... Games: http://backloggery.com/wrldindstries302 \\ Music: http://www.last.fm/user/DrMorberg/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

They're not. You were just asking when he even tried pushing his authority limits. I would imagine a president wanting to do something but finding out they are unable and not continuing to do it is a clear sign of a non dictator ... Copied to Clipboard!

All Xi has to do is talk to the US Congress and they will make a bill allowing 3 presidential terms. Then they vote on it and Trump will sign it. Great plan.

hes definitely stupid and shouldnt be president Missing the point. Actually what you said supports the point I made. He TRIED to go full authoritarian and deploy the military on American streets. I'm not interested in waiting until the day Trump actually becomes the authoritarian that he has demonstrated time and time again that he wants to be, by that point its already too late. That he continuously demonstrates this is his desired outcome should be reason enough to remove him from office. If you are still confused on this matter then you are either a trump supporter concern trolling us or you have a very smooth brain. --- "The soul in the darkness sins, but the real sinner is he who caused the darkness." - Victor Hugo ...
