    First is the obvious saying that there’s nothing stopping him from running for a 3rd term

    The 22nd Amendment does. And it would take 38 states to vote to change that.

      Isn’t there something about insurrectionists not being allowed to be president?

      We’re about to allow an insurrectionist to be president.

      Pretty sure no silly little written amendment on a piece of parchment will stop him. They sure haven’t before. Those rules only apply when HE wants them to.

        I’m not aware of any such thing. In fact, I’d say that makes you more qualified.

        I also think it’s bullshit to call Jan 6th an insurrection. I want a guillotine on the Capitol steps and actually armed people going against the police. Not for the reasons they did, just in general.
