LANSING, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – It doesn’t take much for President Donald Trump to get a reaction out of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.

Nessel, whose domain is the state of Michigan, has joined several national lawsuits opposing Trump’s national policies. The most recent trigger was Nessel taking to social media to voice her concerns that Trump may try to be president for a third term, despite the Constitution limiting presidents to just two terms via the 22nd Amendment.

She posted a video of Trump associate Stephen Bannon saying there was “a plan” to get Trump a third term.

“When Trump and his allies say ‘there’s a plan’ for a third term, we can’t ignore them,” Nessel said on X. “This is serious, and it’s on all of us to speak out against such a blatant violation of the Constitution.”

 

 

Trump and his administration have trolled media and critics with the possibility of a third term.

Earlier this year, the left-leaning news site Politico did a story about a possible third term for Trump.

Politico site laid out four possibilities:

  • “He could generate a movement to repeal the 22nd Amendment directly.”
  • “He could exploit a little-noticed loophole in the amendment that might allow him to run for vice president and then immediately ascend back to the presidency.”
  • “He could run for president again on the bet that a pliant Supreme Court won’t stop him.”
  • “He could simply refuse to leave — and put a formal end to America’s democratic experiment.”

While politicians floated numerous attempts to repeal the 22nd Amendment in the 1980s and 1990s via legislation, none ever got legs.

Even if Congress did repeal the 22nd Amendment, 75% of the states would also have to agree to repeal it.
