It's not the first time Trump has mentioned extending his stay in the White House, an idea he floated during the 2020 campaign.
The former president, Donald Trump, continues to surprise with his statements. After calls for the dissolution of NATO, or for the end of the war in Ukraine for 24 hours, Trump has released another crazy idea.
Trump on Saturday floated the idea of seeking a third term if he wins in November. This is a statement that contradicts the Constitution and for its achievement it would be necessary to change it. Still without a second term, Trump seems to be thinking about a third. But for some such statements are only to attract as many voters as possible from the electorate that supports him.
It's not the first time Trump has mentioned extending his stay in the White House, an idea he floated on the campaign trail in 2020. His latest remarks provide more fodder for the Biden campaign, which has seized on comments as it tries to paint Trump as a threat to democracy and institutional norms.
“You know, FDR was almost 16 years in power, he was four terms. I don't know, should I consider three terms? Or two mandates? ", Trump said.
Some of the crowd shouted in response: " Three ".
But Trump has recently shut down the proposal to seek a third term, which is prohibited by the Constitution. He told Time magazine in an April interview that he would not be in favor of challenging the 22nd Amendment, enacted after FDR's presidency.
" I would not be in favor at all. I intend to serve four years and do an excellent job. And I want to take our country back. I want to get it back on track. Our country is in decline. We are a failed nation now. We are a nation in turmoil ," he said.
During a meandering speech in Dallas, Trump addressed thousands of gun rights supporters on Saturday. The former president talked about guns and the Second Amendment, but also touched on immigration, foreign policy, the economy and abortion. He at one point criticized Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as "radical leftists," as he continued his attacks on Biden and CNN regarding the debates.
He called on gun owners to come out in November to ensure his victory.
" Let's rebel and vote this time, okay? " Trump said.
Trump used Saturday's speech to drum up enthusiasm among some of his staunchest supporters, a key area for fundraising. Trump also used the venue to oppose President Joe Biden's restrictions on gun ownership and vowed to roll back gun safety provisions passed by his administration.
Biden has taken a number of steps to address gun violence, issuing a series of executive actions and creating the first federal gun violence prevention office — moves that have angered the gun lobby.
" If the Biden regime takes four more years, they will come for your guns. Crooked Joe Biden has a 40-year record of trying to take firearms out of the hands of law-abiding citizens ," Trump said. / Adapted "Pamphlet" from "Politico"
