Trump's Comments on Third Term Draw Widespread Criticism and Congressional Pushback

President Trump's repeated suggestions about seeking a third term have prompted backlash from democracy advocates and a congressional resolution reaffirming the 22nd Amendment.

President Donald Trump has made multiple remarks suggesting he might seek a third term, despite the constitutional two-term limit established by the 22nd Amendment.
Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman introduced a resolution in the House to reaffirm the 22nd Amendment and explicitly state that it applies to Trump.
Some Republicans, including Rep. Andy Ogles, have proposed a constitutional amendment to allow Trump to serve a third term, though such a measure is unlikely to pass Congress.
Democracy watchdog group Stand Up America warned that Trump's comments are a test of his ability to expand executive power and undermine constitutional norms.
Trump's remarks have been met with criticism from political opponents, who argue that they reflect a disregard for constitutional principles and democratic traditions.
