They've been testing the waters for way to frequently with seemingly very little pushback... to me, a third presidency is basically guaranteed at this point - one way or another. If they need to falsify the results they'll rationalize it via the "stolen election"
If I was a gambling man I'd have already spend a few thousand on polymarket. I'm not though, so it'll abstain
While I appreciate your sentiment, we really need to stop with this specific type of pearl clutching.
The current president’s mental and physical condition is deteriorating rapidly. He will be lucky to make it through the current term in a functional state.
Adding another number of years to his time in office would mean that he almost literally would need to be propped up by his caretakers.
Is it possible? Sure. Is it probable? No, and it’s not even close, imho.
There is plenty of commentary that can be made about the political machine behind him, but let’s not project that to the dotard currently in office.
We must challenge the unitary executive theory. America is not intended to be a dictatorship or monarchy. It's not OK for Trump / those in his orbit to make comments about a 3rd term, it is a problem, it is something we need to take seriously.

This is all covered in my last paragraph (which, imho, is a separate issue from the current president):
“There is plenty of commentary that can be made about the political machine behind him, but let’s not project that to the dotard currently in office.”
The current president isn’t smart enough to do what it takes to stay in office more than two terms. This is all the work of those around him.
To be more pointed, fixating on Trump rather than the political and social machine around him — which many people seem to do — is missing the forest for the trees.
But that’s not what Trump wants.
