Summary

The Trump Store released $50 “Trump 2028” hats Thursday, sparking backlash online as Trump has repeatedly hinted at running for a third term.

“I have had more people ask me to have a third term,” Trump said on March 31, claiming the 2020 election was “totally rigged.”

Steve Bannon said he’s exploring “five or six different alternatives” to enable a third run.

Critics on social media called it “insane” and a sign of “fascist” ambitions. Though barred by the 22nd Amendment, Trump could run again if it were overturned by Congress and the states. However, it would require a two-thirds vote of Congress and three-fourths vote of the states.

    Then, with all due respect, stfu. If you don’t know American law, don’t be up there spouting your opinion of American law. You see me here spouting off uninformed about German law?

    You’re here saying it’s not facist to elect him a third time when it literally violates our constitution. Pick an insult and lob it at yourself - you’re not worth further time.

      Sometimes it’s wiser to write less, you know?

      If you don’t know American law, don’t be up there spouting your opinion of American law.

      Curiousity is not an opinion. How can I get to know American law if questions about American law are answered with personal attacks?

        I don’t believe that ‘being able to be elected by voters one more time’ is even close to being the same as a ‘fascist dictatorship’.

        Where was the question? I only see misinformed assumptions and straight falsehoods.

        I refer you to my original request about stfu-ing
