I forgot who suggested it...and I'm too lazy to look it up at the moment...but one Republican member of Congress suggested introducing a bill that would override the Constitution and allow a president to run for "THREE NON-CONSECUTIVE TERMS," which would automatically disqualify Obama. Then again, Trump would have to admit losing in 2020, so what were the chances of THAT?
