This is also how I believe Trump gets a 3rd term assuming he lives that long. He makes his intentions to run again known, and several red states allow him to be on their primary ballot. Some organization on the left will sue immediately, and the case will eventually find it's way to the supreme court. They'll rule in Trumps favor, probably with some extra language to ensure that only Trump can run again and not Obama, and the death of American democracy will be complete
