    Trump feels that the Mueller investigation was a fraud and a coup attempt. It unfairly hobbled his presidency and since he was not charged with collusion, he is due reperations.

    Should Trump's 1st term be extended till 2022 and then the election take place after that?

    what say you?

    While it becomes more and more obvious that the whole "Mueller investigation" was indeed "a fraud and coup attempt", and that it has crippled and "hobbled his presidency", nothing should alter the Constitution or its Amendments! Nothing!

    A president cannot and must not, even for what seems like good reasons, be able to claim "extra time in office" just because of the dirty, criminal, treasonous, back-stabbing conduct of an oppostion party that hates him as much as it hates all of the country not already under its control....

    While I agree with you on your Constitutional comments, I find your commentary on the Mueller "fraud & coup attempt" hard to swallow in light of the way Republicans treated Obama while in office. I've lived thru several Presidencies, and found the treatment of Obama as President the harshest & least deserved in my experience.

    I won't argue with you. Republicans, RINO's, and real Conservatives were horrified and repulsed by what they saw in the first few months of the Obama presidency -- which was highlighted by an $831 BILLION "Stimulus" that was nothing but political payback to labor unions and Leftist political allies, plus, a strong-armed push for an unconstitutional "mandate" healthcare scam, and a $100 BILLION "loan" :lol: to the globalist IMF (International Monetary Fund) just as our own 'Great Recession' was finally ending. Yeah, you're right -- Obama knew how to trigger our "gag-reflex" right from the beginning!

    After his first two years, Republicans managed to get him on more of a "short leash", but he responded by ruling the country as a true autocrat -- as he put it, with his "PHONE AND PEN". No use in sugar-coating it -- we on the Right really, and most sincerely, began to loathe and despise him.... In our opinion, we didn't get rid of "the Messiah" a minute too soon....

    I think that what was suggested was that the next presidential election should be 'pushed-out' to 2022, thus giving Trump "an extra two years" -- after which, he'd be able to run for another usual four-year term.

    As already noted, I cannot support that. We must live by every word in the Constitution and its Amendments, or we are nothing but an ersatz "Banana Republic".... But, after going through the agony of sixteen long, miserable years under both Idiot "W" Bush AND Idiot Obama, who knows what the hell we really are anymore.... :psychoitc:

    That's not even a serious issue to discuss.

    If Trump gets an extra two years, Obama should get an extra six. It's only fair.

    How did it hobble his first two years? He boasted the most effective first two years in the history of the country...

    Go back and re-examine everything we've seen the Clinton Campaign's machine, the upper-eschelon of the FBI, and the Obamanite "Justice" Department do starting early in 2016, and then add to that the subsequent stand-up of the "Mueller Investigation" based on a fraudulent "Steele Dossier" which was bought and paid for by conniving Democrats, plus all the rabid hatred, obstruction, and even the attempted destruction of Brett Kavanaugh FOR NO REASON, and if you still don't see any elements of a "fraud and coup attempt", then there is no way in the world that I can convince you....

    Well, Trump isn't convinced - he believes he has had "...the greatest ECONOMY and most successful first two years of any President in history...".

    As someone who is now retired and no longer in "the rat-race", I live on my savings, investments, and other sources of income I set up during my working life. Consequently, Trump's economic achievements don't have much bearing at all on me personally. I think the tax changes he enacted probably put an extra thousand bucks in my pocket, and that's about it. Nothing really.

    Housing prices have SOARED, and that, in turn, is causing property taxes in Colorado to SOAR also. So, you "take one step forward", and then, if you're lucky, you won't take more than "one step back".... I'm comfortable, and I have no debts -- but no president who ever lived GAVE me anything -- each of us has to make our own economic prosperity ourselves, or, suffer failure.

    Still, no Democrat with a grasp on reality can deny that unemployment is the lowest it's been since 1969. And, yes, those who have played the stock market for the past few years are "as happy as pigs in sh!t". Suggestion: if YOU work for a living, put your faith and trust in YOURSELF, and nobody else! But beware the Federal Reserve System, which completely took over total control of the U. S. economy starting in August 2007. They care ONLY about protecting their 'insiders', those it thinks are "too big to fail", and the almighty-god stock market. Everybody else can be "thrown under the bus" in a heartbeat! :twisted:

    And what does that have to do with the subject at hand...which was Trump's hobbled presidency? Your initial response, at least, was on point...but as I've pointed out, Trump himself is declaring his first two years as the most successful in history. So how, then, could it have been hobbled?

    Guaido assumption to the presidency of Venezuela is a fraud and a failed coup attempt, thus far. Sanction against the Venezuelan people has hobbled their ability to live a comfortable existence. As Guaido coup attempt has failed, as well as the sanction could this open the door to reparations for the Venezuelan people?

    I flipped the OP script.

    Jailed? Wouldn't that put the "System" on a slippery slope? I mean, the Russiagate Collusion was in fact a distraction and nothing more but jailing people for an investigation seems a bit harsh, in my opinion.
