It's not the first time the president has publicly mused about seeking another four years in the White House, which would be barred by the Constitution.

Summary

Trump joked about running for a third term during a speech to House Republicans at a retreat in Florida, despite the two-term limit imposed by the 22nd Amendment.

His remarks drew laughter, but they come amid a proposal by Rep. Andy Ogles to amend the Constitution to allow Trump a third term, though the measure has not advanced.

Trump has made similar jokes before, calling it “fake news bait,” while GOP lawmakers like Sen. Mike Lee dismissed the possibility due to constitutional barriers.

    While it’s not nothing to joke about such things Trump is, intentional or not, a grand master of generating outrage around less meaningful words and actions while work is performed in the background that should really be getting more attention.

    It might be on purpose or it might be that he’s just being deployed by those manipulating things in the background. He doesn’t give a shit so long as he keeping growing his power, money, attention , and fame.
