    Remember when Obama was asked if he could run for a third, and he said he couldn’t because it’s not allowed. Imagine a President who respects the law, the Constitution, and the will of the people via Congress. Irony is that it was Republicans who put in place the term limits, so Trump is even against his party’s previous mandate.

      I also remember republicans freaking out about how Obama was going to run for a third term and declare himself king even though there was absolutely no indication that anyone thought that was a good idea. He was just popular and they couldn’t handle it.

      I mean Obama did drone strike an American citizen without due process but respecting some laws is better than none.
