America's Social Casino Good morning Cooner Country. Okay. A lot of news is being made on Trump's trip to Asia. Look, let me just say this. He's only nine months into his second term. He's still got, what is it, three years and a couple months to go, but already now. There is huge buzz. I'm talking story after story after story that maybe, just maybe, President Trump may go for a third term in 2028. And the reason why this has now become such a massive story is because Steve Bannon... who, as you know, I follow, I wouldn't say regularly, but I do follow him. He is a former Trump advisor, served in Trump's first term for a while, and of course is a key ally and supporter of the president. Steve Bannon, in a recent interview with the Economist magazine, a British weekly magazine, said that Trump will run in 2028. That in fact, according to Steve Bannon, he needs to run in 2028. That the Trump MAGA revolution is not finished. It's not over. There's a lot more work to do. And that to really drain the swamp and break the back of the establishment, Trump has to go for an unprecedented third term. And what got everybody talking. is that Steve Bannon said, this is what he claimed, that he was talking to people inside the White House. Now, he didn't say Trump, but he said people around Trump, people inside the White House, and quote, unquote, plans are underway to make that happen, i.e., to make him run in 28. And so that's set off, as you can imagine, A media firestorm, not just from the corrupt corporate media, but from conservatives, from independence, from Trump supporters, all across the country now. There is a massive buzz. Everybody is talking. Should Trump run in 2028? Will Trump run in 2028? Can he constitutionally run in 28? Listen now to President Trump. He's on his way in this clip. He's landed now in Japan, obviously, and he's meeting with the Japanese Prime Minister, but on his way to Japan on Air Force One. Right away, the first question was about Steve Bannon and whether Trump will seek a potential third term in 28. Is this something Trump is willing to do because he'd have to take it to the Supreme Court? Listen now to get there okay. Listen now to Trump's response. Roll cut one, a mic.
of very good people, as you know. But I have the best poll numbers I've ever had. I mean, I just solved eight wars and a ninth is coming. I believe Russia, Ukraine will happen. So he's asked, you know, there's a lot of talks. Steve Bannon brought it up. There's a plan underway for you to able to run and potentially win a third term in 2028. The audio wasn't the best. So let me just quickly regurgitate what was said. And is this something you'd be willing to challenge at the court to be able to do when you heard his response? And he says, you know, I really haven't thought about it. We've got some very good people. And look, I'm, you know, I got great poll numbers, though, meaning wink, wink, you know, if I wanted to run again, I think I'd win. And then he's going on about how, you know, he's a peacemaker. He's just settled eight wars. He's looking to settle to Russia-Ukraine war. And so that didn't quite close the door. If you noticed, he didn't quite close the door. Now, there are several issues with Trump running in 2028. Number one, and of course the biggest hurdle, is the 22nd Amendment, which was passed after FDR's death, which term limits a president to two terms. Eight years, period, full stop. If you're elected, two elected terms. Technically, if you're the vice president, say the president dies in the middle of the term, you can serve out that term and then still win two other terms. But you can only serve two elected terms. So that's the 22nd Amendment. Now, it's very hard to get over the 22nd Amendment. Frankly, I don't see how Trump could do it. Let's just play it out. Even if he wanted to run in 2028, the 22nd Amendment would be a massive legal obstacle. Now, what the option is, there's really two options. Number one, change the constitutional amendment. In other words, you have to have another constitutional amendment to replace the 22nd amendment, which would allow, say, a president to serve three terms. In fact, Congressman Andy Ogles is pushing this very idea in Congress for Trump. Let a president have a 12 year, the ability to serve up to 12 years in office. In other words, three terms, not two terms. But to get that done, you have to get a super majority in Congress, and you have to get three quarters of the states to ratify this new amendment, all in time for 2028. It's practically impossible. There may not even be the support for it at that super majority level, and there certainly isn't the time to do it. So it looks like that option is off the table. The other option is take it to the Supreme Court. Why take it to the Supreme Court? Trump can argue, now I don't know if he would win or prevail, but the argument he could make is that because what of what Obama did to him.
and Hillary Clinton, and a crossfire hurricane, and how they illegally framed him as an agent of Russia in his first term. and then sicked Robert Mueller on him, that they essentially denied him a proper first term, that they deliberately subverted his first term, undermined his first term, made it almost impossible to truly have a proper first term in office, and so that he should be given another crack at the can because of the illegal criminal abuse of power. that was perpetrated against him by Obama, by Biden, by the CIA, by the FBI, by the deep state, and by the Democrats. I don't know if the Supreme Court will say that passes constitutional muster. I'll be honest with you. But that's clearly another option. Now, there is a third option. That's even ban and seems to be floating and many conservatives and Trump supporters are floating, which is that Trump should run in 2008. as the vice presidential candidate. Let's just say to JD Vance, just to pick a candidate. So J.D., the heir apparent, runs in 2028 as the presidential candidate or nominee for the Republican Party. Trump runs as his VP. Then when JD Vance wins, JD Vance automatically steps aside. and says, I'm making way now for the vice president of the United States to now become the president of the United States. And Steve Bannon believes this circumvents the 22nd Amendment. It gets around that legal obstacle. I doubt it. I think the Supreme Court is going to say no. The 22nd Amendment still applies. You were president for two terms. You were elected for two terms. You can't be a president for a third term, even if you run as a vice presidential nominee on a presidential ticket. So I don't think constitutionally the Supreme Court will allow it. Now, Trump appears to be shutting down that door for running as the vice presidential candidate. And I'll play the cut after the break where he's asked specifically, well, you know, Steve Bannon is saying you could run his VP. And then, you know, your ticket wins. And then if it's JD Vance or Marco Rubio or whoever is the presidential candidate and wins, just they step aside and say, okay, Mr. Trump, another four years for you.
And Trump said that's too cute. I don't like to do it that way. If I'm going to do it, I want to do it on my own. I don't want to be someone's VP. So Trump appeared to have slammed the door shut on that vice presidential option. So the question now is this. Can Trump run for a third term? More importantly. I want to ask you, all of you, Trump MAGA, Trump supporters, conservatives, should Trump be able to run for a third term? Would you like to see him? He would be 82 years old. Is he fit enough for the job? 617-266-66-68 is the number. Okay, listen now to Trump. Now, he's been trolling the media and the Democrats now, frankly, for a few months now. He's got all these Trump 2028 caps. He's giving out to people. When he met with Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries just before the government shut down, he had these Trump 2028 caps placed all over the Oval Office on the desk. Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, their eyes were popping out of their skull when they saw this. He's a dictator. He's a dictator. So he's been trolling the Democrats. And he's clearly been trolling the media. He's having some fun. But when Steve Bannon gave that interview saying, no, no, this is more than just trolling. We got a plan. We're going to get him to run in 2028. He has to run in 2028. So he was asked, and he didn't, as I said, that he was asked, look, Steve Bannon says people inside your, you know, in your inner circle are working with him. to clear the way for you to run for a third term and to have you win in 2028. Now, he didn't quite say no. He just, you know, he was coy. You know, he says, no, we've got good people, as you know. And then he's pressed by reporters saying, well, when you say there are good people that could run in 2028, who do you mean? Well, listen now to President Trump. Roll cut to Mike. We have great people. I don't have to get into that we have one of them standing right here. J.D., obviously, the vice president is great. I think Marco's great. I think I'm not sure if anybody would run against us. I think if they have a formed group, it would be unstoppable. I really do, I believe that. I would I would love to do it. I have my best numbers ever. It's very terrible. I have my best numbers. If you read it.
So it's a very interesting answer, and I apologize, it's Air Force One. It was on its way to Japan, so the quality of the audio is not the best. But let me just, for those of you that quite couldn't hear everything, he gave a very interesting answer. Number one, standing right behind him was Marco Rubio. Okay, so Marco Rubio was right behind him. And as the question is being asked, Marco Rubio is like shaking his head like, no, no, please. No, please. He's going to answer it. Please, please don't answer it. Of course, Trump answers it. And he says, no, he goes, look, we have great people. And then he says, look, I don't want to get into it. But I have one of them standing right here, meaning Marco Rubio. Like, in other words, he'd be a great candidate, you know, presidential candidate in 2028. He then says, well, we have JD, obviously, JD Vance, the vice president. He's great. He says, Marco is great. Now, he then says, and this is very interesting, and he's been saying this now for a while. I've noticed now, it's been about a good, ooh, five, six months. He keeps saying a JD Vance Marco Rubio ticket. And he said it again. He said they would be unstoppable in 2028. JD Vance, obviously, as the presidential candidate, Marco Rubio as his VIP, as the vice presidential nominee, as the vice presidential candidate, a JD Vance Marco Rubio ticket. He says could destroy any Democratic ticket. Any, you put any Democrat up there, they win. So on the one hand, he's basically saying, you know, wink, wink, I'm going to do my three years. and, you know, do as best I can, obviously, finish out my term. And, you know, I'm riding off into the sunset and I'm passing off the baton. And my era parents are going to be JD and Marco Rubio. And they're going to carry MAGA for the next eight years after me. So on the one hand, he's basically saying, no, I'm not going to run in 2028. Tyler Redic here from 2311 racing. The rush of racing, nothing beats it. But Chumba Casino comes close.

Then he says, however, I would love to do it. Meaning I'd love to run again in 2028. I have my best numbers ever, meaning I'm riding very high in the polls. The opposition is terrible. He goes, you know, I have my best numbers. So what he's saying is, on the one hand, he's saying, yeah, no, it's going to be JD and Marco Rubio. I think they'd be unstoppable. I'm going to, you know, let the, hey, I'm going to stand aside in 2028 and I'm not going to run. They're going to run. They're going to carry on my legacy. My MAGA revolution. But on the other hand, he's like, boy, I really would like to run, though. I got great numbers. I could win. I could win easy. So notice, the door's closed. No, it's not closed. The door's closed. No, it's not closed. Now, he's then asked, well, would you run as the vice presidential candidate? This is Steve Bannon's theory now. Run as a vice presidential candidate, say to, I don't know, JD Vance or Marco Rubio, whoever. And then if they win, they step aside right away. And then you then elevate yourself to become the next president in 2028. And maybe that can get around the 22nd Amendment. Trump does shut the door on that. Listen to Trump. Roll cut three, Mike.
Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. Is it the White House or the White House counsel's your legal position? No, you'd be allowed to do that. But I wouldn't want it. I wouldn't do it. I think it's too cute. Yeah, I wouldn't rule that out because it's too cute. I think the people wouldn't like that. It's too cute. It's not, it wouldn't be right. So he's saying that he, now Trump is arguing that he has the right to do that. The reporter says, well, have you run that by the White House counsel? You know, your lawyers. And he says, no, they say legally I could, if I wanted to do it, I could do it. But he goes, I don't want to do that. I'm not going to do that. It's too cute. So they say the reporters right away say, so you're ruling that out. He goes, oh yeah, no, I'm ruling that out because it's too cute. I don't think the people, i.e., the voters, would like that. It's just too cute. It's not right. So he's basically saying, I'm not going to do the ban in theory. I'm not going to run as somebody's VP. And then, you know, right after the election, they step aside and I become the president. No. If I do run in 2028 for an historic unprecedented third term since the 22nd Amendment was passed after FDR died. I want to do it on my own as the flag bearer as the presidential candidate. 617-266-68-68 is the number. Okay, it's one of the biggest stories, not just in the country, but in the world. after Steve Bannon's explosive interview with The Economist magazine, not only that the fact that he's a Trump supporter and a former advisor, top advisor to Trump, and that he says Trump should definitely run for a third term in 2028, it's that Steve Bannon then came out and said in the same interview, I'm talking to people not with Trump, but people around Trump, his inner circle, and we have a plan. And we're going to make it happen. He can and he will run and win in 2028 for a third term. We're going to get around the 22nd Amendment. And that now has set off an absolute firestorm. Trump, by the way, I think politically he's handling this brilliantly. because all of this talk of whether he'll run again for a third term. Remember, one of the problems of a president in his second term is they become quickly a lame duck because the focus is always, well, who's going to be his successor? Who's going to be the one coming after him? Who's, you know, so after a while, it's hard to keep the attention on you. Well, what he's doing now brilliantly by playing this sort of Hamlet, you know, should he, should he not, will he, will he not? He loves JD Vance and Marco Rubio. It's an unstoppable ticket. But on the other hand, boy, he'd love to run himself in 2028. It keeps the attention on Trump.
Not on JD, not on Marco Rubio, not on who his potential successors or heirs could be, but squarely on Trump. He's the center of the Republican Party. He's the center of the administration. He's the one that sets and dictates the tone and the terms of his administration. And that, by the way, is a deliberate strategy on his part. And I got to tell you, it's a masterful strategy. So I think politically he's handling this extremely well. Now, what is fueling a lot of Trump supporters, and I wouldn't say it's a majority, just from the reaction I'm getting, the text line, it's 45% want him to run for a third term, 55% of Cooner country don't want him to run for a third term. So I would say MAGA is split. But that 45% is being fueled by several things. One of them, and I want to play this cut. If you remember, a couple shows ago, I talked about James Carvel. And Carvel speaking for many liberals and many Democrats said, I can't wait to get back to power in 28. Because if we take back the White House, he goes, I swear to you. And I've spoken to many Democrats, and they're telling me the same thing. We are going to go after, quote, unquote, collaborators of the Trump administration. We are going to arrest them. We are going to parade them down Pennsylvania Avenue. We're going to have people come out and spit on them, like the collaborators in France, when the Nazis were finally expelled from France after D-Day, how many of those who collaborated with the Nazis had their heads, their heads shaved, and they were publicly shamed and disgraced. He said the exact same thing is going to happen. We're going to shave their heads. We're going to parade them. We're going to throw tomatoes at them. We're going to spit at him. We're going to pursue them. We're going to charge them. We're going to lock them up. We're going to harass them. It's going to be all-out lawfare. And so you have a lot of Trump supporters now saying he's got to run for a third term because the Democrats are openly calling for massive retribution against people who worked for Trump and people who supported Trump. So listen now to Scott Adams. Now, he is a comedian. Take it with a bit of a grain of salt. But still, he's speaking, he's a conservative comedian, a Trump supporter. But he is, and it's a bit tongue-in-cheek, but he is speaking for many in the MAGA movement, in the America First Movement, saying, we can't afford not to have Trump run in 2028. Roll cut 16, a mic. James Carville, if that's what you're really promising us, if you're promising us that you and your clan are going to come after Trump collaborators and you're not going to define in advance what a collaborator is, well, you just flipped me to a third term. I'm going to make the change right now. As long as this...
was talking like this, I'm in favor for a third term. If you can calm down this I'll be on your side. No third terms for anybody. That's where I was 10 minutes ago. Now I'm looking at this and I'm saying, you, if you're going to give this vague threat that when Trump leaves, people like me are going to be victimized, yeah, we're going to go for a third term. And that's on you. That's all on you because I was absolutely 100% against the third term until right now. So there you go. And it got a visceral reaction among a lot of people. Look, let me be brutally honest with you like I'm in the confessional. And I say this with all due respect to Scott Adams. They're not going to come after you, but they're going to come after people like me. When Carville talks about quote-unquote collaborators, he's talking about people like me. He's talking people like Tucker Carlson. He's talking people like Laura Lumer. I mean, I could go on and on. Well, they may go after him. You're right. He is a public cartoonist, so they may go after him. But what I'm saying is, look, I know that Carvel's going to. I know the Democrats are coming after me if Trump wins. Sorry, if Trump, if Trump serves out his second term and the Republicans lose in 2028. And the Democrats take back power. There's no question. I get the hate mail. They keep telling me over and over again, we're coming for you. We're coming for your wife. We're coming for your children. We're coming for your family. You know, so, you know, you Nazi scumbag, and that's the least of it, is not calling me a Nazi scumbag. So I know that I'm out on a limb backing Trump. I know that. Hey, it is Ryan Sechrest here.

Now, I still, my honest opinion, no, I'm against Trump running for a third term. Would I think he'd be a great president? Of course. But number one, he still got over three years to go. Like, honestly, I think we're jump, number one, just, we're just jumping the gun. How's he going to be in three years? It's an exhausting, draining, grueling job. So it's one thing nine months into a second term. Talk to me when you're 82 years old, three years from now. So number one, I think it's way too premature, my honest answer. Number two, I'm sorry, the 22nd Amendment is the 22nd Amendment, is the 22nd Amendment. And it's there for a reason. FDR was a disaster in his third and fourth term. And look, Yes, it's tempting to say, let's go for it with Trump. But what happens if the Democrats take back power? Can you imagine Obama with the third term? I mean, his own third term? In other words, or a Democrat, a very bad Democrat? And to give them 12 consecutive years? 617-266-6-68 is the number. Okay, look, you know where the Cooner Man stands. And look, let me just say this. I think politically it's brilliant on his part to keep saying, oh, I may run, I may not run. I think that's exactly how you keep all the attention on Trump and not become a lame duck. So I think it's brilliant. I love it how he's trolling the Democrats. I love it how the media and the Democrats are melting down. I would say you just keep doing this for years and years for most of the rest of his second term. I don't know. I don't know. If I ran, I'd win. That's for sure. All my poll numbers are great. You know, to me, you have to keep the Democrats on defense. I think there's no question. Now, if you're asking me, Jeff Cooner, in my opinion, no, I don't think he should run for a third term. Now, do I think he would be a great third term president? Probably. I've never seen a guy his age with that kind of energy and vigor. I mean, look at him. He's just flying all over Asia. Working 18, 20-hour days, he's practically 80 years old. So if anybody can be 82, and have an incredibly successful third term, it's Trump. There's no question. And I agree with Steve Bannon up to a point. The MAGA revolution has to continue. It can't just end with Trump, you know, when he finishes his term in three years. But where I part ways with Steve Bannon is number one, I'm sorry, I think the 22nd Amendment is crystal clear.
You can change the Constitution. You can, you know, you can, you know, pass a constitutional amendment. It's very hard. You need two-thirds supermajority in Congress, three-quarters of the states. And I don't think there's the support for that. And I don't even think there's the time for that by 2028. So to me, presidents are term limited. And look, I can just tell you this. FDR in his third and fourth terms was such a disaster. He literally, we had a cold war because of FDR. He gave, he sold out Eastern Europe to Stalin at Yalta. He was clearly too old, too sick. He kept it from the American people and his people did as well. His handlers and the media. who colluded with him. And it took us 45 years to undo that mistake. So, no, I believe in term limits for members of Congress. I believe in term limits for senators. I believe in term limits for judges. And I certainly believe in term limits for presidents. I support the 22nd Amendment. And again, I say this to everybody. Don't think you'll be in power forever. What happens when the whip is on the other hand and you got a very bad Democrat president? Two terms is a check. You start playing around all, maybe three terms or four terms, the damage that they can do is immeasurable. And this should be my final argument. Agree, disagree. JD's been an incredible vice president. I mean, even Trump himself repeatedly says the guy's great. I couldn't have asked for more. And Trump further says, and he's right, a JD Vance Marco Rubio ticket would be unstoppable. Personally, I prefer a JD Vance Tulsi Gabbard ticket, okay? But let that go. The point being, you've got your heir apparent. You've got, as they say in football, you know, after, you know, the starting, you know, the quarterback is getting a little old. And you've got the next guy. You've got the next guy. I mean, J.D. is America first MAGA to his core. He is polished. He's articulate. He's brilliant. He's going to have tremendous executive experience by the time 2028 rolls around. He's been incredibly loyal to Trump. He's been involved in every aspect of Trump's presidency. domestic, dealing with Congress, foreign affairs, immigration. In other words, he's got on-the-job training. He's ready to go. And look, I prefer Tulsi Gabbard over Marco Rubio. But I've got to say, I'm sorry, I have to call it the way I see it. I think Trump is right. I think Marco Rubio has been a very effective Secretary of State. And I think the two of them together would be a juggernaut. So if you've got, you know, you've set it up now to hand off the baton. So you've got three years to go. You can do so much more. And then to me, that's also the sign of a great leader, is you develop a deep bench, and then it's time to pass it on to your heir apparent. You know, and they continue your legacy.
And so I think all the pieces are there. Why would you threaten to blow all that up? Here, say you run JD just to play out the scenario and you become his vice presidential candidate, which Trump has said he won't, but let's just play out the scenario. So we're going to burn JD like this? Like, hey, think about it from JD's point of view. So I'm in the salt mines. I'm working insane long days. I'm backing you to the Hilt. I'm going to run. I'm going to campaign. I'm going to be at the top of the ticket. And then I just stand aside and you become president again. And basically that's it. I'm done. You've thrown me to the curb. And I don't think the American people would like it. I don't think even many Republicans and many Trump supporters would like it. They think it's unfair to JD because it is unfair to JD. So to me, no. He's got three years, three months. There's still a lot of work for him to do when he's done in 2028. Salute, pass it on to JD and Marco Rubio or whoever runs with JD on his ticket. And let's keep this baby going for another eight years. But that's me. I want to hear from you. 617-266-6-6-8 is the number. Okay, this is a very interesting point from Mark on Messenger. Jeff, it's true. I didn't think of it this way, but it's true. Jeff. What would the Democrats do if Trump attempted to run for a third term? You think we're hearing dictator and king now? Oh my God, the Democrats will completely lose their minds. And although I would love to see it after all, Jeff, if a senator or a congressman can keep running, why not a president? Plus, Jeff, I don't think JD would step aside if he won the presidential election and then make Donald Trump the president. And I don't think Trump would do that anyway. Well, he wouldn't. That's why he shot that down saying, no, I'm not going to run as somebody's VP. And then ask that person to, you know, hey, go, okay, retire now, go home. And I'm going to take over. He goes, that's, you know, as he put it, that's too cute. It's not honorable. And I would never do that to whoever the nominee is and to the American people. So if Trump says, if I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it straight up. I'm running. Here's why I'm running. And I'm going to take it to the courts and see if the courts will allow me. Now, personally, I think that would feed into the narrative that Trump is a king and a dictator because of the 22nd Amendment. And if we didn't have a deep bench, because I understand what Scott Adams is saying, I'm telling you, believe me, I really understand. I don't want to be paraded down Pennsylvania Avenue. I don't want to have my head shaved off. I don't want to be thrown in some dungeon because I dare to support Donald Trump. I don't want to be spit on and had tomatoes thrown at me.
and be hounded and harassed and persecuted and hunted down. So I get where Scott Adams emotionally is coming from.

America's social casino. But we've got the perfect guy to replace Trump. So, you know, it's if we, you know, we got a very deep bench. So we don't need to do this. But again, that's me. I want to hear from you. 617-266-68. Of course, you can disagree with the Cooner Man. I want to hear all points of view on this. So let me ask you. It is the Cooner Country Poll Question of the Day, sponsored by Marios, Mario's Quality, Roofing, Siding, and Windows. Should President Trump run for a third term in 2008? A yes, B, no. I want to hear from you. I want to hear both sides, frankly, because MAGA is split on this and Cooner country is split. You can vote on my webpage, WR-K-O-com slash Cooner, W-R-K-O-com slash Cooner, K-U-H-N-N-E-R. You can also vote via X, my handle there, at the Cooner Report, K-U-H-N-E-R. at the Cooner Report, K-U-H-N-E-R. Jeff in Quincy, you're going to start us off, Jeff. Thanks for holding and welcome. Boston's bulldozer. How are we doing today? I'm good, Jeff. How are you? Should Trump... Jeff, Trump 2028. You like, you don't like. I think the 22nd Amendment has to be changed. to include the Congress and the House and the Senate. They all need term limits. Enough is enough. We need to fix the voting system in this country. Trump's not going to run. He's 80 years old. The fact that he's trolling him and has him triggered like this is hilarious, much like everything else he does. Obama's basketball court at 400 million is okay funded by the taxpayer, but yet a ballroom funded by Donald Trump and private entities is not okay. If Democrats didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all. Jeff, I got to ask you, and I agree with you. I think the Senate, the Congress, they all should be term limited. I'm with you all the way, Jeff, just to ask you, because of the 22nd Amendment, I agree with you. But just if you could be emperor for a day, if you could just snap your fingers and change the Constitution, would you support Trump running again for a third term? Or do you think really two terms is enough? He would be 82. It's time to pass the baton. It's time to give someone else a chance. True terms is enough. Katie JD Vance is the heir apparent. He has my vote already. I'm with you with Telsie Gabby and you stole my thunder on that one. I don't like Marco Rubio. I like him. He's doing okay now, but he changes with the wind. He was in the gang of eight. Enough is enough. I mean, how much more can these people declare war on us, play these games, and we just sit back complacent and deal with it. The Democrat Party is a domestic terrorist organization. Nothing else. Nothing more, nothing less. They're horrible.
Jeff, is your last name Cooner by any chance? I swear you, you're like a brother from another mother. I'm like, amen, amen, amen. He's like my lost twin brother or something. Jeff, you hit the nail right on the head. Please, Jeff, call more often, for God's sake. All right, Jeff says no. What say you, 617, 266, 68. In fact, let me ask you two questions. Number one. Should Trump run for a third term? Would you like to see him run for a third term? Look, there's many of you that are texting me, yes, I'd love it if you called in. I'd love to hear your arguments. And number two, do you want him to run for a third term? That's a separate issue. You know, you could say, hey, Jeff, I'd love to keep the gravy train going. You know, he's the best of the best. When you have the best of the best, you keep this guy going. But he just, you know, constitutionally, he can't. But I'd love to see it. So should he and do you want him? Could he? Can he run for a third term? Or do you think he is legally constitutionally prohibited from doing so? Frank in Hingham. Thanks for holding Frank and welcome. Hi, Jeff. Thank you very much for taking my call and good morning. Good morning, Frank. You know what? It's no on all the questions. I don't think he would run again. I don't think he should, even if he could. And he probably could. You know, the Constitution, from what I've seen as a living, breathing document it's made to be changed or tweaked here and there, I guess, right? So, I mean, I bet he probably could find a loophole to do so. I would not vote for him. If he ran for a third term, and I voted for him twice. Okay, now why? Because I believe that the two-term limit is enough. As a matter of fact, every politician should suffer the same with a two-term limit. You know, we don't need career politicians running the country. And that's the problem that we have today. As a matter of fact, it's career politicians. They've made a career out of politics because they really can't live or survive in the private sector, you know.
And that's, you know, we don't need people like that running the show here. Look, look what we've got, you know. I think Donald Trump should spend most of his time promoting JD Vance. I don't see enough of him. I'd like to see more of him. I'd like to see him every place Donald is because I think he could be the heir apparent. or he should be, I think he wouldn't do a good job for the country, and I think we need to be promoting him now that it's Donald Trump's last term in office. Frank, let me, by the way, again, you're stealing my thunder. I got to tell you, the audience is stealing my thunder. I am so with you on term limits. It's not even funny. And I think you made your case, I thought very, very well, really eloquently. Let me ask you this. Do you think at 82, Is Trump just too old for a third term? I understand your point about two terms is enough. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. And after a while, two terms is enough. And you do become a politician after a while. Nobody's immune to it. And our founding fathers kept telling us two terms, no more than two terms. You know, for George Washington, he said two terms is enough. Jefferson, no more than two terms. Madison, the founder of our Constitution, two terms. So I'm with you all the way, but just as a separate issue, Frank, is 82 just too old to be president? Not that he's not a vigorous man, but to be president, the leader of the free world. I'm just curious. What are your thoughts on that? I think that's a great question, Jeff, and I think that it's a subjective one because everybody is different at 82. Joe Biden, no way. The man didn't know where he was. Donald Trump, if he's got the, you know, he still has everything with him and stuff like that, which he does today, why not? I mean, you know, he's a man of the world, he's a man of experience. It wouldn't change anything, you know. But compare him to Joe Biden in Joe Biden's last years, absolutely not. So, you know, if that makes any sense. Interesting. Frank, thank you very much for that call. Just let me use a football analogy, okay? Just and get your take on this. Do you remember the last years of Brady here in New England? And he was still very good. One of the, you know, A, the greatest quarterback that ever played. To me, like Trump is on the verge now of becoming the greatest president we've ever had. And still at the end of his career, one of the top five, if not top three best quarterbacks in the league. So, in other words, still playing at an extremely high level. And what did genius craft do? And by the way, the idiots in sports radio? Get him out. And the sports media, it's time for Brady to go. We got to move on. No, no, we're not going to. They don't want to pay him 50 million for two years, which to me was a steal. And after everything he accomplished for the Patriots and for the fans, like a bunch of judas is, they just cut them loose.
Well, Brady showed he could still perform at an elite level, went down at Tampa Bay, won a Super Bowl, and then the following year almost took them to the Super Bowl. They were very close. My point being, you know, if you've got a Tom Brady, and Trump is the Tom Brady of politics, one of the best, if not the best president we've ever had, the way Brady was one of the best, if not the best quarterback that ever played. Why push him out? What I'm saying is if we can get him for another, I'm just throwing it out there. If we can get him for a third term, why can't JD wait another four years? What I'm saying is, like Brady, if the guy can keep winning, let him keep winning. And that's Steve Bannon's argument. What say you? I'm just curious. 617-266-6868. Harry in Maine. Thanks for holding Harry and welcome. Good morning. Hi, Harry. Jeff, I'm with you on the 22nd Amendment. You know, the flip could switch the other way, and where will we be then? So I'm definitely with you on that. I'm a definite no on a third term for President Trump, and I love Trump. But a couple of points. You gave one of the examples that he could pursue potentially, and that was to go to petition the Supreme Court and say that his first term was impeded in such a way that, you know, he basically was robbed of it. And to do that, long story short, we all know why. what he should be doing, and I think they're starting to do it, not fast enough in my opinion. I know you feel the same way on this, but he needs to go after and prosecute all the people that impeded this first term. And that's going to take a lot of time, a lot of litigation. He doesn't need that distraction, but he's got people that can do it, and that's what he should be doing. But what I would say is this. You just made a great point on the Brady analogy. I say the same thing. Why would you break a win combination? Why wouldn't you let the guy continue to roll and run with the football here? And what I'm saying is Obama did it. Obama just did it. We had four years of Biden. None of us, I don't think, believed that Biden ran the presidency of the United States of America, Jeff. The dear leader, as you like to fondly refer to him as, he had a place right down the street. in the records show that he visited the White House numerous times. So, in my opinion, what should happen is pass the baton.
Give it to Marco Rubio, give it to JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard Gavitt, all good choices, okay? I think they have strong loyalties to President Trump. I would consider Trump for a position in the cabinet. And you know what? I'll tell you this. That would probably be problematic because it still has to go through Congress. So I got one even better. Put them in a position as a special advisor, someone like a Steve Miller that doesn't have to go through Congress. and just keep a hot seat farm, keep it warm at the White House, and just have him come in. You know, as he pleases, he'll be 82 years old, let him enjoy life. But you know what? There's no reason why he couldn't be even more effective in helping either JD Vance, whoever succeeds him. if Obama could do it for four years with Biden. That's a brilliant point. And you eliminate all this stuff about the look and the feel of a difference. Oh, Harry, that's a brilliant point. That's a, man, that's a magnificent point. And look, that's what Donald Trump Jr. is saying. Remember, Don was the one who went to his dad and said, you got to put JD on the ticket. And Trump was like, really? He goes, oh, you got dad, he's you. He's a junior version of you. I mean, not your personality, but your core convictions. And they have become now extremely close, JD and Trump, very close. And look, you don't even have to even have him at the White House. I mean, just, you know, a phone call, Mar-a-Lago. In other words, JD is going to be relying on Trump for his entire eight years. Let's say he wins two terms. Looking for excitement Chumba Casino is here. Play anytime, play anywhere. Play on the train. Play at the store. Play at home. Play when you're bored.
