From a constituent in Edmonds, WA3/31Defending Democracy – No Third Presidential Term
I am deeply concerned about recent statements by Donald Trump suggesting he may seek a third term, as reported by NPR on March 30, 2025. The 22nd Amendment clearly limits a president to two terms, and any attempt to circumvent this restriction is a direct threat to our democracy. While this is a fe
