Because FUCK IT. Why not?

[USS_Dauntless]

I would very happily, unironically vote for Barack Obama again.

[Chasstev365]

1. Love it!

However the Supreme Court will give a reason why Trump is eligible for a 3rd term, but not Obama. This is who we're dealing with.

[Gimpyknee]

2. Me too!

[calimary]

25. Me three!

[LiberalArkie]

11. Because Trump has not served 2 consecutive terms. Kind of like Russia.

Putin served 2 terms? ( I think) and was term limited. His cohort then served and then Putin again.

[Dave Id]

15. Trump hasn't served two consecutive terms.

He should serve two consecutive terms in prison for instigating the J6 attack on the Capitol.

[LiberalArkie]

16. Exactly. the reich-wing believe that the constitutional limit is on "consecutive" terms.

So a person could serve a term, a vp could serve a term, the original president could serve another term etc etc etc

[TomSlick]

23. Not surprisingly, they are mistaken.

XXII Amendment, Section 1:

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

There is no exception for a break between terms.

[Javaman]

3. exactly, why not? the orange asshole and his room full of dopes want to illegally weekend at Bernies him,

why can't we do that with a president that is actually still alive and brilliant?

[eppur_se_muova]

4. Should be easier to modify the 22nd Amendment to allow more than two NON-CONSECUTIVE terms than to allow

more than two terms generally. Of course, that could help Anus Orange, but it would open the door for Obama as well.

If SCOTUS says Turnip can run for a third term (which would be directly succeeding his second term), Dems would be pretty stupid NOT to nominate Obama. Turnip wouldn't agree to ANY debates but Obama could out-social media him any day.

[Oliver Bolliver Butt]

22. SCOTUS has already told us that the plain language of constitutional amendments is meaningless

Love,
The 14th

[IzzaNuDay]

29. I'm hoping he's out of the White House by 2028

We have these possible outcomes…
Incapacitating illness
25th amendment
Appointment with the Grim Reaper.
If Congress has the testicular fortitude to impeach and put him on trial…

[mountain grammy]

5. If shithead runs for a 3rd term

So should Obama!! What a dilemma for J Roberts and Co.

[lastlib]

6. Shithead has already overstayed his welcome.

If he's not gone by Jan. 20, 2029, noon, We The People will DRAG him out. He can leave vertically or horizontally, we don't care which, but he leaves.

[SocialDemocrat61]

7. Hell, I'd vote for this guy vs any republican

[LudwigPastorius]

21. Man...those delta radiation burns are a bitch!

[druidity33]

8. Michelle is available for conscription!

No legal obstacles that i can see.... though of course she has said she would never.

[multigraincracker]

13. Gorge Washington was drafted. Did not want to run either.

[druidity33]

17. You misunderstand...

Michelle is also an Obama. She could run. No legal problems with that..... like i said.

[Rebl2]

20. True

She could, but she has said many times she doesn’t want to.

[Deuxcents]

24. Why not Hillary?

[Ponietz]

27. Why not Bill?

[rampartd]

9. it will be an interesting shasdow docket decision

obama is , of course, restrained by the constitution and would be deported to kenya for being uppity terrorist of he tried.

""constitution? never heard of it" trump28

[KS Toronado]

10. This thread just gave me a new talking point idea for Rs

"Would you like to see dumpie run for President in 2028?" If I get a YES answer, then

"Then you'd be OK with Obama or Clinton running against him?"

[Prairie_Seagull]

12. As a thought experiment?

It is a blast to consider. As a scare tactic? Outstanding.

As a reality? President Obama being a constitutional professor. This may be a bridge to far.

Back to, it is a blast to consider.

[Maru Kitteh]

18. In a HEARTBEAT.

Michelle, I’m very sorry. We just need a little more, okay? Just give us four years to get our shit together. Please?

[KPN]

19. Absolutely genius!

Even if the “shithead” dies before then, why not? He’s the one who opened the door to this. The MAGAverse would go absolutely apeshit! (Not that they haven’t long ago already …)

[wendyb-NC]

26. Yes

I'd love to have Obama as our POTUS.

[area51]

28. One thing I'd like to see

is someone switching out the Trump '28 merch in the white house to Obama '28. PEDOnald would probably stroke out.
