Twelfth Amendment
The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate;–the President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted;–The person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. [And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.–]The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
I don't think Trump could ascend to be President. He would only have two years of eligibility as President. Maybe if the elected President and Vice-President served the first two years and then resigned. I don't think two people in those positions would resign after two years. If they made it that far why quit then?
What does President Trump do NOW?

Scandals or ill health, perhaps - although if he's involved, then bribes or threats. Presidents have a habit of getting shot at. Not sure anyone would think an 84-year-old, as he then would be, would be a good idea though.Evil Semp wrote: Tue Sep 01, 2026 8:30 am Twelfth Amendment

Surely from a nation of 270 million adults or so, the parties must be able to find someone electable? I know it's a huge ego to follow, but they'd have a lot of credit in the bank for simply not being called Trump. Perhaps there should be an upper age limit as well.
Worth reminding ourselves that Boris Johnson is eligible...other options include Nicole Kidman, Andrew Garfield (already a presidential name) and Sienna Miller.
