You’re missing their point. More is ambiguous in that sentence. It can be defined as consecutive like you have, or it can be defined as anything more than two consecutive terms. Since Obama has had two consecutive terms, any term now would be beyond two consecutive terms even though that term itself is not consecutive.
Yeah… that’s their “solution,” Aaron Sorkin… Definitely not anything else more stupidly nakedly sinister and illegal.
I mean… clearly, as we have seen now since the 1980s, the elephants definitely care about rules and need to carefully figure out a way around them so the people whose opinions they deeply care about don’t see them as hypocrites.
They already have a solution for that. They want to change it to say "no more than two consecutive terms.
Won’t that still allow Obama to run? A 2028 term wouldn’t be consecutive with his first two terms
But he’s already had two consecutive terms.
Right, and he wouldn’t have a third consecutive term because of the gap so everything is peachy.
Two consecutive terms + a third detached one is overall still “more than two consecutive terms”
No, three consecutive terms would be more than two consecutive terms.

I guess, bullshit problems need bullshit solutions

I mean, it’s not like even if everything showed they lost they would like… illegally try to perform a coup and storm the US Capitol building to try to violently overturn the results regardless of the outcome’s legality or validity if it didn’t suit their narrative.

Dude, this is already their attempt to change the Constitution to install a despot. You need more cheating than that?
