Trump eligible for a third term?

Be who ever you want
That looks very similar to becoming a Dictator. But maybe that is what Republicans want? Or are they afraid of Trump?

I have my doubts he was named to do anything.
Also, for anyone who forgot what his daughter did:

There seems to be nothing about this beyond Huckabee's message.

Huckabee is an ordained Southern Baptist Minister, former Governor of the State of Arkansas, and a former presidential candidate in the 2016 election, running against Trump.
He represents and speaks for a large number of evangelical Christians who, by and large, view Trump as sent by God to change the U.S. by eliminating anti-Christian legislation and implementing changes that the evangelicals want to see done. In other words, they are "using" Trump to obtain the changes they want to see made in the U.S. The evangelicals are an important part of Trump's support base. They are not afraid of him. He's afraid of losing their support, which is why he will do what he can when he can to keep them happy, like all politicians do. IMO, however, I consider the evangelicals' relationship to Trump to be "a deal with the Devil", and if there is a Hell, the evangelicals are going to spend some time there.

Not to mention, to try to be realistic, let's say Trump does make it to 2024. He will be like 78.5 years old. I'm not saying it won't happen, but he needs to get on a diet better than this McDonald's and KFC I hear about, respectfully, if he wishes to try to run for an illegal third term.

This may not be the proper discussion for this, but I've been trying to interpret Revelation, impossible I know, and I'm starting to really see the US as the beast which resembled a lamb but spoke like a dragon. I have my doubts if Jesus came back today, that he wouldn't do some house-cleaning or make some strong rebukes.

Actually we had a president that ran more than two terms already, and that person was FDR for an impressive 4 terms in office.

It's what the republicans have wanted for a long time. Not exactly a dictator, but to dictate governmental policy indefinitely. It's why they've worked so hard for so long at giving the president more and more unchecked authority (A big project of Cheney's) and why they hailed Carl Rove as their political "genius" when he realized he could use the religious right to win otherwise unwinable elections, with otherwise unacceptable candidates. They didn't want a dictator president, what they wanted was an idiot president that they could dictate, too. Like Reagan. It's why they LOVED Ronald Reagan so much. He was an amiable dolt that they could get to do whatever they wanted. Keep in mind all these neo-cons that are now the bigshots of the republican party all 'made their bones' in the Reagan administration. They were the "power behind the throne", and they really, really liked it! And they wanted more of it. So they've been running idiot candidates for high office, in crooked elections, ever since.

And that's the reason Congress put a two year limit on a presidents term. They actually offered to change the rule if Eisenhower would run for a third term, he said no. Not sure when it was included in the Constitution.

Its what happens when politicians are bought and paid for especially by those who called themselves the 'moral majority'. There is little moral about them.

Trump's a useful idiot.
The Republican Party is the political wing of an oligarchy of Neoliberal corporatists and bankers, which seeks to undermine any barriers to privatization and free trade.
They have succeeded in establishing a hidden oligarchy masked by the trappings of democracy. Princeton Study Declares U.S. government an Oligarchy They are currently continuing with their campaign of deregulation and packing the federal court system..

Yea, it is written in the Book of Cyril...
Nice to see the utterly predictable, hypocritical response of the trumpettes and assorted bootlickers.
I don't often agree with you. Color me surprised.
Also, Trump is showing significant indication of troubled mental health _now_.

I skimmed this thread, but it was mostly the left responding, and the Republicans actually making some very bipartisan posts.
If you want to see things get wild... start one on guns or identity politics.
