Term limits
Donald Trump is proposing a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of congress. I couldn’t find the s
You are correct imo and one of the few people here who appreciates this point. People within the party also are not as aligned on strategy as most people imagine.
It might be because of no term limits though.
If you introduce them there is more to gain from entrenching a not limited position within the party.
In order to achieve what you ask for you would need term limits to encompass all elected positions.
Otherwise x in the house + x in the Senate then governor or whatever, you still have lifetime politicians.
Something like a 20y cumulative hard cap for all elected positions including all positions that require a nomination and a confirmation by the Senate and the same at the state level.
But that would then be incompatible with the other request that comes from the same circles, IE a ban to work with companies you regulated or legislated upon
4 terms congress and 3 senate terms
its a happy medium sure a lot of people want shorter but I think it makes a lot of sense and easier to push through
at end of day its the people that keep voting the same same same people in house though so we have to be aware of that
trumps first law that made it so you had to wait 1-2 years to get back into the public sector after serving in public was a really really good thing and a good start
I got a slogan for those who oppose term limits: TERM LIMITS LIMIT TERMS
I'm against restriction on who we can vote for. It's up to us not them.
Where the system is dysfunctional it needs fixing. Sticking plasters are not helping.
I almost mentioned those two as the exceptions.
