Democrats Move to Reaffirm Two-Term Presidential Limit After Trump Remarks

A proposed House resolution seeks to clarify the 22nd Amendment following President-elect Trump’s comments about a potential third term.

President-elect Donald Trump joked with House Republicans about running for a third term, despite the 22nd Amendment barring presidents from serving more than two terms.
Representative Dan Goldman, a Democrat from New York, plans to introduce a resolution reaffirming the two-term limit and clarifying that it applies to non-consecutive terms as well.
The resolution is not legally binding but aims to put Republicans on record regarding their stance on the constitutional restriction.
Trump has previously dismissed the idea of challenging the 22nd Amendment but has made similar remarks about extended terms during campaign events and public appearances.
Amending the Constitution to repeal the 22nd Amendment would require overwhelming bipartisan support and ratification by three-fourths of U.S. states, making such a scenario highly unlikely.
