The current administration has signed an executive order to restore a certain ideology to museums.

 

The Vice President has been tasked with getting the Smithsonian to whitewash American history. 

 

National Museum of African-American History & Culture (NMAAHC) could undergo changes in order to continue receiving federal funding. 

 

The clown car is barreling down the street. These next few years will be a bumpy ride.

That 3rd term is material for a new thread.

 

The next few years could be the set-up for making it happen.

He might just get rid of terms period and declare himself the "People's President".
Which means he'll be President until "the people decide" they want a new one.  (wink wink)....lol.

The POTUS cannot change the US Constitution. They would have to use creativity in order to get him back into office for a 3rd term or longer.

 

For example, they might try to put POTUS OJ on the ticket as VP candidate.

 

If the GOP wins in 2028, the elected POTUS could step down and promote the VP. However, the Constitution blocks that move.

 

Another thought is POTUS OJ becomes Speaker of House. That position doesn't require one to be in Congress.  Speaker of the House  is 2nd in line of succession to be POTUS.

 

Let's see if Congress is willing to amend the Constitution to remove POTUS term limits. 

 

In 2008, Vlady Putin served as Russian prime minister under President Dmitry Medvedev.

 

After one term as prime minister,  Putin has been re-elected to 6-year terms. He's been running the country for 25 years and counting.

Apparently THIS one can...lol.

He's already overriding the 14th Amendment to deport the children of immigrants who were born on U.S. soil.
And they're actually floating around the idea of deporting actual AMERICANS who are convicted of certain crimes.

Damn.

Yeah, he's been "leader" of Russia in one position or another since the 90s...lol.

This administration definitely seems willing to test limits of the Constitution and adjudicate it in the courts. 

 

The deeper truth is the laws don't mean as much when white folks want to do their thing against non-white folks.

 

Deporting non-white folks from illegal immigrants to political enemies will be tolerated by both teams  (red and blue).

 

Regardless of political party affiliation, white folks in this country are united when it comes to maintaining the system of racism white supremacy.

 

POTUS OJ is being allowed to do whatever he wants as long as it benefits the greater good of white folks especially the wealthy.

 

Poor and middle class white folks will accept the trickle down. They don't have to rich. As long as they *feel better off* than non-white folks they'll roll with the program.

 

Look no further than European and Asian countries as examples of how white folks are willing to live regardless of their system of government.
