The trick is making sure Cheeto remains in office long enough for him to run for reelection.

The guy's a gift that keeps on giving for us.

and would not eligible to be President.
And the crazy thing is that it was probably written that way to keep the U.S. safe from having a traitor like Trump PLACED in the White House.

US citizen, yes. Born here? No. We are a country of immigrants, proudly so, until Dotard showed up.

Yeah.... the worms destroy the Lion from within. There are a lot of metaphors and other writings throughout history observing that the worst threats to a country come from within.

Just my gut instinct. I'm sure JK3 has been doing an admirable job filling Frank's shoes there in Massachusetts, but honestly, running a Kennedy with nothing but three/four terms in the House simply because he's got the name Kennedy?? Not going to help in PA, MI, Ohio, etc.
