President Donald Trump’s recent comments about pursuing a third term have sparked heated debates, with his allies framing the idea as a bold challenge to the political establishment. During a March 30 interview, Trump hinted at “methods” to extend his presidency beyond two terms, reviving speculation about a constitutional “loophole” tied to the 22nd Amendment. Fox News’ Gutfeld! panelists enthusiastically embraced the concept, suggesting it would “cement GOP policies” and keep Democrats in a panic.
One proposed method involves Vice President JD Vance running for president in 2028, then resigning to allow Trump to reclaim the Oval Office. While legal experts dismiss this as unconstitutional, conservatives argue it highlights Trump’s creative approach to dismantling bureaucratic roadblocks. Panelist Tyrus joked, “The third term’s a given — it’s the fourth term we should worry about!”
Liberals have labeled Trump’s remarks a threat to democracy, but Gutfeld’s team dismissed the outrage as hysterical. They compared the reaction to “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” arguing the left’s obsession with Trump distracts from policy failures like inflation and border chaos. Greg Gutfeld quipped, “They’re already on tilt — this is just trolling perfection”.
Some conservatives floated repealing the 22nd Amendment through a constitutional convention, citing Trump’s enduring popularity. Though far-fetched, the idea underscores Republican frustration with term limits hindering transformative agendas. “Why should a president who delivers results be forced out?” asked one panelist, mocking Democrats’ reliance on “geriatric leadership”.
The panel contrasted Trump’s “hot cabinet” of physically fit leaders with Biden’s team, whom Gutfeld derided as “fat, out-of-shape losers”. They argued discipline in personal health mirrors competence in governance — a subtle dig at liberal priorities.
Trump’s teasing energizes his base and keeps opponents scrambling. Whether a serious plan or a masterclass in trolling, it reinforces his image as a political disruptor. As one supporter put it, “The more they scream, the more we know he’s winning”.
