  Ever since Jan 6 21 it’s been crystal clear where this goes if he wins again.

  “Wins again” as in violating another part of the constitution (22nd amendment)?

    It’s not against the constitution for Vance to serve 2 terms as president with Trump as VP, and we all know Trump will cuck Vance to effectively still be acting President.

      The 12th Amendment explicitly forbids this:

      no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States

        Thanks. That gives relief to an issue that has had me concerned.

        Looks like there is still a bit of debate over how 12 and 22 work together

      Indeed, Medvedev and Putin did the same thing.

      That’s still different from “wins again”.

    I meant it from the POV of 2021, so “wins again in 24”
