Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles faced backlash after suggesting President Trump should have a hall pass to act freely, including suggesting a third term and a Peace Prize. Critics emphasized that his proposal violates the 22nd Amendment, which limits presidents to two terms, and undermines the Constitution. Nina Turner called for Ogles's removal from Congress, and others pointed out that Trump's actions warrant accountability rather than indefinite power. The issue sparked wider discussions on constitutional adherence among Republicans.
Nina Turner, former presidential campaign co-chair for Bernie Sanders, called for Ogles's outright ouster from Congress, asserting that Ogles advocates against the Constitution.
The tweet proposes unconstitutional actions: a third term violates the 22nd Amendment's two-term limit. Allowing indefinite rule undermines democracy and the Constitution.
