Ok so the loophole goes the 22nd amendment only mentions being elected president, not serving as a limit. So the theory is you can get 4 terms out of a strong P/VP if they reverse the ticket. The guy pretending to be president does have to resign in that case though.
But technically you can do the above shuffle, then, if you have the house votes, elect the “president” to speaker of the house. Once he resigns, leaving the P spot open for the real president to scoot in, as speaker of the house he’s automatically next in line for VP via succession.
You get keep that going for awhile actually, if you loop in a third party.
The VP promoted to P can nominate the new VP so we get an endless dosedo of Trump Vance oh god kill me
Supreme nodding in approval as this was obviously the intent of the writers
You know the constitution says nothing about whether the president is alive or not. I suggest we elect Lincoln again
I have theories of them attempting to do the god king thing like that. Never ending chain of fake presidents nominating a dead president as VP then using a llm facsimile to continue his never ending term
