Amendment proposed to allow Trump a third term as US President

A congressman has proposed an amendment that would allow Donald Trump to serve a third term as US President.

According to foreign media, Andy Ogles, a Republican from Tennessee, has introduced a joint resolution to amend the 22nd Amendment, which currently prohibits anyone from serving more than two terms as president.

His new wording would allow a president to serve three terms, as long as only two of them are consecutive. It's a proposal aimed squarely at Trump, which Ogles makes clear in a statement.

"This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can maintain the bold leadership that our nation so desperately needs," he says, writes A2 CNN.

But amending the Constitution is extremely difficult, requiring the support of two-thirds of the House and Senate. Even the support of every Republican in Congress, which is by no means guaranteed, would not be enough. (A2 Televizion)
