Summary
Donald Trump refused to rule out seeking a third term as president, telling NBC News there are “methods” to do so and emphasizing, “I’m not joking.”
Though the 22nd Amendment bars presidents from serving more than two terms, Trump suggested possible workarounds, including a VP succession plan.
He cited strong poll support and added, “a lot of people want me to do it.”
Allies like Rep. Andy Ogles and Steve Bannon back the idea. Amending term limits would require a complex constitutional process.
The secret service didn’t know (or didn’t care) there was a shooter until after the guy clipped the ear. They failed at the prevention part of their job.
edit: all I’m saying is if they failed once, they could fail again. That’s it. I myself have no intentions of ever setting foot in the states.
That wasn’t the secret service, it was the PA police. But sure roll up and take your shot already if you think it’s easy.
Secret Service personnel on the ground moved quickly during the incident, with our counter sniper team neutralizing the shooter and our agents implementing protective measures to ensure the safety of former president Donald Trump.
Yes, AFTER the fact. But before that, the area was the charge of PA police.
A member of the Butler County ESU then shot at Crooks and hit his rifle, preventing him from firing more shots. Ten seconds later, Crooks was shot and killed by the Counter Sniper Team of the United States Secret Service.[13]
They were both there, and thought he was working for the other group
Part of the reason apparently was the venue made demands to have a police perimeter, and the campaign was having trouble find a venue in the area.
