Washington:
The US Attorney General said on Sunday that it would be a “a heavy lift” for Donald Trump to find a legal method for the third term as President.
Palm Bondi told Fox News Sunday, “I want us to do it as our President for 20 years.”
In 1947, the US Constitution was amended to set a two -year limit to the presidency, until Franklin Roosevelt died after his fourth term at the White House.
But constitutional amendments require approval by two-thirds parts of both houses of the Congress, as well as recommendation by three-fourths of people from 50 states, which political analysts say this is not very likely.
“This is really the only way to do so,” Bandy said. “It will be a heavy lift.”
The initial talk of Trump’s demand for the third period hit several imaginary, but on March 31, the 78 -year -old President told NBC News that he was “not joking” about the possibility.
He said that there were “ways” that would allow it to be.
Former Attorney General of Florida, Bondi’s comment, lines alignment with the views of most constitutional scholars about the difficulty of a legal third word.
But to hold the top law-enforcement office of the government as a loyal to Trump, his comments have more importance.
Earlier, in an interview with Fox’s Shannon Breame, Bondi spoke against comprehensive legal pushbacks, yet-Youva Trump administration has faced as he moves aggressively to give a place to his policies.
He said, “We have had more than 170 cases against us – this should be a constitutional crisis.” “We will continue to fight those cases” when they proceed through courts.
Bondi defended the administration’s decision to seek a death sentence in Luigi Mangione’s case, which is accused of killing Health Insurance Activist Brian Thompson on New York Pavement on December 4, 2024.
“The President’s instruction was very clear: we are looking for the death penalty when possible,” he said. “If there was a case of death, it is one.”
Bondi recently participated in a legal victory when the Supreme Court on Friday biased with the administration in a dispute to freeze the so-called DEI grant of the Education Department-which included efforts to ensure diversity, equity and inclusion.
The Right-Ending Court allowed the administration to continue to continue $ 64 million for teacher training and professional development.
“We just got a great victory,” Bandi said, “and we will continue to fight every day.”
