They still have Ron DeSantis. There’s a good chance he will run in 2028, if either Trump wins but the GOP won’t make it so that he can be re-elected indefinitely, or Trump loses and the cognitive decline will also be shown on him even more…
Doing that would require changing the constitution. Legally, this would let him go and scribble new words on the paper version of the constitution. He would be immune from the charge of vandalism. But, that wouldn’t actually change the constitution.
Make it so felons cannot run for president and resign immediately after.
If he did that Biden would be remembered as one of the greatest presidents ever.
Or change the max age to 75.
Why not both? Also make it 70.
If we’re selecting cool max ages for things I suggest 69.
Personally I think it should be a definition instead of a straight number
Something like the current LD50 of old age or something.
Retirement age of 8 years ago (to prevent extending it for themselves) - 4 years.

Right now that would restrict eligibility to be president down to between the ages of 35 and 41
I’m no fan of gerontocracy but I’m pretty sure almost nobody who’s served as president would have been eligible under those restrictions.

We could tie it to average American life expectancy and that’d incentivize Congress to improve healthcare in this country
How about we just have them take the ACT or hell even a GED test to qualify to be in the running?
I swear it’s easier to become president than it is to get into college.
Funniest version of this I’ve heard of is having to pass the citizenship test every time you want to run
Tbh as a man in his mid 20s, born and raised in the USA, and passed high-school constitution test; I don’t think I could pass the citizenship test.
It’s over complicated by design.
Unfortunately Trump isn’t the real underlying problem; the republican party will churn out someone even worse who is not a convicted felon.

But wait until after the Republican convention.
That’s not how the ruling works.
Biden could go shoot Donald Trump (in broad daylight on 5th Avenue) and could not be prosecuted for it.
He cannot make new laws. That’s still Congress’s job, for now.
How does immunity let him do that?
