Supreme Court Can Extend Trump’s Term By Up To 3 Years If He’s Acquitted In The Senate

 

There’s a little-known precedent on the books that Democrats are trying desperately to have removed before the impeachment trial of President Trump begins. In 1974, as Nixon faced impeachment, the Republican Congress passed a law that would allow his term to be extended if he was acquitted.

 

The law was specific to Nixon, and was set to expire in 5 years, but Nixon resigned. The removal of the law, therefore, never happened.

 

According to legal analyst and constitutional scholar, Art Tubolls, the fact that the law exists at all sets a precedent:

 

“The law is very clear. An acquittal, which they were sure they would get until all the facts came to light, would have meant that Nixon’s term was stolen from him, and that three years or less could be added to his time in office without causing a constitutional crisis.

 

“Because of how Nixon ended his own career and was pardoned, the law was never struck down or removed, meaning it’s still precedent, and only the Supreme Court can take it away.

 

“Our sources say it would be a 5-4 vote to allow President Trump to go on for another three years, making the next Presidential election due in 2023. Trump would still be eligible to run.

 

“That may sound extreme and unconstitutional, but only the SCOTUS can determine that, and they are solidly behind Trump, no matter what crimes he’s committed. The office is better with him in it, and that’s all they’re supposed to care about.“

 

The White House says the president absolutely would request an extension if acquitted because it’s his constitutional right to do so. If the Democrats want to play dirty, they can spend the next three years campaigning and then get a beatdown like they would have in 2020 anyway.

 

What all of this means is that if the Democrats don’t convince 8 Republican Senators to vote to convict, we’ll be making America Great again for three extra years with no elections to worry about.

 

God Bless America.
