President Donald Trump suggested in a recent interview that he might explore avenues to run for a third term, despite the constitutional barrier posed by the 22nd Amendment. This amendment, established to prevent presidents from serving more than two terms, was enacted after Franklin D. Roosevelt's four consecutive elections. Legal experts quickly dismissed Trump's assertions as lacking credible legal foundation. The conversation has reignited concerns about the disregard for democratic norms, especially following Trump's previous attempts to overturn the election he lost to Joe Biden.
Trump's remarks underscore a significant concern regarding the potential undermining of democratic norms as he flouts established constitutional limitations on presidential terms.
Despite his claims, legal experts agree that there are no viable methods that would legally allow Trump to serve a third term.
