RE: The Official "Damned Trump" Thread: Phase II
DOGE holds the ironic position of being against bureaucracy while being run by an unelected tech billionaire

He wants a third term because two won't do enough damage

Says Vance can run and then hand him the presidency just like Putin and Medvedev.

The Twelfth Amendment forbids anyone ineligible for the Presidency to assume the office of VP. Amendments to both 12th and 22nd Amendments would be required before a third term would be legal.

There's daylight between the two amendments as one bars being elected and the other speaks of ineligibility, which AFAIK is only defined in terms of age and citizenship.

I think even Trump’s pet SCOTUS would have a hard time siding with him on this one.

That daylight is nominal at best. IANAL, but if he cannot run for President due to term limits, he cannot run for VP, as if he did accede to the Presidency he would automatically violate 22A.

Yes, and we also have an activist Supreme Court and plenty of timid appellate judges.

These are same courts who rejected 97% of his ‘stop the steal’ arguments. Add in the fact Coney Barrett is beginning to grow something resembling a spine, I don’t fancy his chances.
