President Donald Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

The key word is elected.

There is nothing that makes him constitutionally ineligible to be President.

Think the only requirement for that is 35 years old and naturally born American. Maybe a few more.

President can't be elected 3 times so he can't be vice president as well.
It's crystal clear.


well it’s not crystal clear for maga people so I guess in the end housenut wasnt really trolling after all those years …


I don't care if Trump is president or not. I'm not fighting for the guy.

A clear reading of the constitution is he can't be elected President.

It doesn't say anything about him not being able to be President, or be Vice President. Just can't be elected President.

Can he be speaker of the house? Or no?

Where do I get your revisionist history books? I love fairytales!

Now to the truth:
FDR lowered tariffs after Hoover enacted them and started the great depression. FDR did this because he recognized protectionism doesn't work. FDR literally used diplomacy and trade policy to rebuild international ties frayed by Smoot-Hawley.

Yeah one of FDRs major campaign themes was on the failure of broad protectionism which is hard to argue against and exactly what Trump is doing....with inflation a major concern even before the tariffs lol.

Just so we are clear and there is no confusion, will you please state exactly what you are insinuating? How does he become president if he is not elected?


by Didace k

No one can run for vice president if they aren't eligible to be president.

says which part of the constitution?

President can't be elected 3 times so he can't be vice president as well.
It's crystal clear.

it isn't and even experts on your side admit that.

it's not like Trump invented the idea, it was discussed in obscure niches of the legal discipline before Trump was ever president, just ask rococo if you don't trust me.

Yes purple haired

vs the usual suspect low IQ brigade. Tough call.


The decision would be up to SCOTUS, as you know.

Maybe you are looking outward for your problems causes when you should look inward


Even Meta determined that this "fact checkers" are too radically to the left to be believed about anything yet you are here using them as a source of "constitutional scholarship" jfc how do you do this

Lol Meta determined dumb people have strong opinions and buy stuff. You might as well say 2+2 agrees with your moron level understanding of statistics because they didn't delete it and left it to the community to correct.

He is vice president.
The president dies or steps down.

And for the constitutional interpreters that say this can't be done, is he allowed to be speaker of the house? What happens if pres/VP die?

Can he be secretary of state?

Where down the chain does the Constitution allow one who has been elected President twice to continue acting in public service?

Yeah I can sympathize. I only have a couple people on ignore but I blot out their posts if requoted as well via script. provided people use the quote tag properly.

This is all well understood. We've had a secretary of state in our lifetime that would not have been eligible to be president. They would have been skipped over in a succession event. Lol at having this discussion without knowing this stuff though.

We need that poster who used to come on here to build your strawman hut. Forget his name. Grango or something like that. Loved the straw.
