  Won’t that still allow Obama to run? A 2028 term wouldn’t be consecutive with his first two terms

    But he’s already had two consecutive terms.

      Right, and he wouldn’t have a third consecutive term so everything is peachy.

        I guess, bullshit problems need bullshit solutions

  Yeah… that’s their “solution,” Aaron Sorkin… Definitely not anything else more stupidly nakedly sinister and illegal.

  I mean… clearly, as we have seen now since the 1980s, the elephants definitely care about rules and need to carefully figure out a way around them so the people whose opinions they deeply care about don’t see them as hypocrites.

  I mean, it’s not like even if everything showed they lost they would like… illegally try to perform a coup and storm the US Capitol building to try to violently overturn the results regardless of the outcome’s legality or validity if it didn’t suit their narrative.
