Trump's Latest Proposal is for Term Limits: Mr. Trump We Already Have Terms Limits

He has Zero Understanding of the Law of the Land

Re: Term Limits is TRUMP'S LATEST PROPOSAL:

As noted, except for Mr. Trump I guess, we already have terms limits: elections every 2 or 4 years as noted below:

*  Every 4 years for a President, and then he or she can only serve two full terms (or max of 10 years if he/she replaces the president).
* 6 years for a Senator. Then 1/3 of those 100 seats are up each 2-year cycle along with the full House – all 535 members. Staying longer is up to the voters.
*  2 years for Representatives in the House as stated, all 435 are up every two years along with 1/3 of the Senate and every 4 years with a President’s term. Staying in office is up the voters, too.

This structure is time tested and it keeps government balanced, separate, and equal. Educating the voters is paramount to that end. 

Reform like term limits is an old state GOP line:

However, the ever-growing massive amounts of uncontrolled money from a handful of billionaires and millionaires is more key to any reform.

 Big money from a few high-rolling donors turns off the voters who feel helpless about their vote counting or their small donations vs. a billionaire’s truck load of money even mattering. 

Public campaign financing would be one solution. The public should have total input, complete  control of the rules, and then they would benefit from the outcome by being equal across the board with those same billionaires – that is the so-called “One Man/One Vote” rule in place since the USSC ruling in 1964 (Reynolds v. Sims).

Now along comes Trump:

“If I’m elected president I will push for a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress,” Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump told a campaign rally on Tuesday.

Under his plan, members of the House would be limited to three terms, and senators would be able to serve only two.

It’s a common proposal, often offered by Republican candidates — Mitt Romney also supported term limits. But it is also a recipe for a federal legislature that is less competent, less collegial, more susceptible to corruption, and more dependent on self-interested lobbyists. A number of state legislatures implemented term limits, and those states’ experiences reveal what is likely to happen if members of Congress face similar limits.
