The media learned about the plans of Trump's supporters to change the US constitution


A group of supporters of the president USA Donald Trump wants to explore options for changing the country's constitution so that the politician can run for a third term in the future, the TV channel NBC News.
"A group of Donald Trump supporters is at an early stage of the campaign to rewrite the constitution so that he could remain in office for another term. Trump has done nothing to thwart this idea," the article says.
According to the author of the article, since Trump returned to the White House, he has "fueled and fueled the incredible idea" that he might run again. According to the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, no one can be elected President of the United States more than twice. However, "dedicated supporters do not despair" and hope to overcome this obstacle.
"President Trump's joke about a third term is similar to a chef's joke that he wants to award his restaurant a Michelin star. Obviously, this is not going to happen, but it's funny to see how critics are going crazy about this," said Trump's 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale.
On the other hand, according to some experts, if the country's constitution is amended to allow a third term, Trump will take this step.
"If there is a procedural way to do this (run for a third term. — Ed.), he (Trump. — Ed.), most likely, is considering it," said Jenna Ellis, a lawyer for the Trump 2020 election campaign.
On February 16, the British newspaper The Independent presented the list of possible candidates from the Republican Party in the presidential race in 2028. The current US president himself was included in it. According to media reports, the Supreme Court is headed by a conservative majority, which may contribute to changing the constitution to elect Trump for the third time. Also on the list were Dee Vance, Florida Governor Ron Desantis and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Pavel Feldman, Candidate of Political Sciences, professor at the Academy of Labor and Social Relations, said on January 24 that Trump was more likely to href="https://iz.ru/1827788/2025-01-24/politolog-nazval-nichtozhnoi-veroiatnost-ballotirovaniia-trampa-na-tretii-srok"> He will run for a third term. According to him, neither the Democrats nor his associates will appreciate this idea.
