No third term for Trump?
More than one way to make that happen.

On the surface, this seems like the answer is no, they can’t.
The last line of the 12th Amendment says, “But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”
And part of the 22nd Amendment says, “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.”
Some constitutional scholars take that to mean that a two-term president would be ineligible to be VP because they can’t be elected to president.
However, there are those who argue that just because a former president couldn’t be elected again doesn’t mean they are ineligible.
The requirements to be eligible for president include being a natural-born citizen of the United States, at least 35 years old, and having been a resident of the United States for 14 years. Nowhere does it mention terms served?
The annotated constitution from the Library of Congress includes these questions on their overview of the 22nd Amendment, “Note also that neither Amendment addresses the eligibility of a former two-term President to serve as Speaker of the House or as one of the other officers who could serve as President through operation of the Succession Act.”
Another reason there isn’t a clear answer is because no one has tried it. In 2015 Hillary Clinton joked in an interview that she had considered former President Bill Clinton as her running mate, but he wasn’t eligible because of the constitution. So the answer will remain theoretical, until someone challenges it in court.
