In 2028, trump would be running from a prison cell, a nursing home or a casket.

And, disgracefully, would probably still garner >40% of the vote….

Though “Trump 2024” might not be that much of a total fantasy (nightmare scenario, though, certainly). While the provisions of the 22nd Amendment are pretty clear:

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

it makes no mention of a specific consecutive-term requirement, i.e. the “Grover Cleveland” scenario is still a Constitutional possibility. Though - disgustingly - the incumbent POTUS is the only one covered in that circumstance….
