Trump said he plans to seek a third term "because they spied on my campaign."

From: Rolling Stone

Trump’s often-repeated claim that the Obama administration illegally spied on his campaign has been refuted by Trump’s own FBI in a detailed report. Trump made the claim during a rally in Wisconsin last night. “We are going to win four more years,” he told the crowd. “And then after that, we’ll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years.” According to the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, however, “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.”

He's been 'joking' about that allot (trial ballooning...) so I guess he felt now was the time (may for a distraction? to take it up a notch.

That's not a thing that exists. Trump is delusional and needs help from a qualified mental health professional.

You're not deserving of one more day in the White House. The legitimate president, Hillary R. Clinton, should demand your removal from office.

You're not going to get a second term, Donny Boy, let alone a third term. Hopefully you'll get an all expenses paid trip to Leavenworth, you piece of shit.

I can't even begin to imagine what a hell-hole this place will be, since I never could have imagined what kind of damage he has done in the first four years.
