Do it! Please!

Sorry.

That's my idea too. I'm no accelerationist, but Trump is already dousing the country with gasoline, so let's light it up and get it over with. Trump was elected because Biden failed to improve the situation for most voters. The next Dem will win by a landslide as Trump makes life so much worse.

Maybe after that we'll try someone third party and see if we can make the country better

I predict Elon Musk will be the next president.

I think Musk is too ambitious and egotistical to settle for being the president of the kind of backwater country that the United States will be by the time Trump's term is over.

Not possible, wasn't born in the US

I don't have much faith anyone in power will care. Just not bothering with questions of legality seems to be their modus operandii.

Yeh I mean to be fair orange cheeto Mussolini is already talking about a third term so you might have a point here

There's a good chance he'll already have croaked by the end of this term. I wouldn't put apotheosizing him below the republican party

Article II, Section 1, Clause 5:

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

The Framers appear to have adopted the requirement that citizens be natural born citizens to ensure that the President’s loyalties would lie strictly with the United States.

Oh, the irony

By barring naturalized citizens from the presidency, the requirement of being a natural born citizen, as Justice Story explained, protects the United States from "ambitious foreigners, who might otherwise be intriguing for the office; and interposes a barrier against those corrupt interferences of foreign governments in executive elections, which have inflicted the most serious evils upon the elected monarchies of Europe."
