Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

— U.S. Constitution, 22nd Amendment, Ratified 1951

Immediately after Trump lost the 2020 presidential election, he embarked upon his four-year “Big Lie” that the election had been “rigged” and “stolen” from him. He constantly bleated that there was absolutely, positively, no way on this earth that he lost. There was, he shouted to anyone who would listen, simply no way that he could or would have lost had not the “far left” Democrats cheated him out of his just deserts.
