Miriam Adelson pledges $250 million for a third Trump term at White House Hanukkah party

Is this lady serious? What kind of Trump Derangement Syndrome is she suffering from?

Some people seem to have too much money! Just kidding!

Jews have a positive reputation to be wise, quiet, and frugal when it comes to spending money. Maybe Ms. Adelson is an exception! Or she just wanted to enjoy a few minutes of fame or she just wanted to flatter the president.

At the end of his second term, President Trump will be 82 years old! Maybe with the help of AI doctors will discover the elixir of longevity, but I would not bet on it.

Term limits for US presidents have been a great addition to the US Constitution and a long overdue reform of democracy! Term limits should be extended to all members of the US Congress!

Donald Trump says Adelson pledged $250m as pair teases third term | The Jerusalem Post "Adelson spoke at the event, mentioning that she had spoken with Trump lawyer and known Israel defender Alan Dershowitz about the legality of a third Trump term."

Limited government or limited and small government?

With President Trump in his second term this question has garnered new relevance!

As a classical liberal I am all for limited and small government with term limits for all elected representatives!

Unfortunately, since World War II Western democracies have shown a strong tendencies to overregulate, to pass too many laws (and rarely if ever remove obsolete laws), and to concentrated too much power with the central government.

Unfortunately, term limits for elected representatives in Western democracies is a taboo. Only the US President is term limited (there might be some other exceptions).

Devolution of power in Western countries from central to lower levels of government is also long overdue reform!

Nancy Pelosi (D-CA, age 85) says she will not seek reelection. Really!

Maybe she should have come to this conclusion two or more terms ago! She has been nutty and erratic for several years and longer!

She is a prime example why term limits not only for US presidents are so necessary!

She has been a lifelong career politician! Hanging on to power like an addict!

Mitch McConnell (age 83) suffers nasty fall as calls for term limits grow louder

This dude is as reckless and irresponsible as the senile, demented and corrupt 46th President! Please resign immediately! What about term limits for members of the US Congress?

On the very slow progess of term limits for all members of the US Congress

A necessary and long overdue reform is making progress, slowly but surely!

Maybe in my remaining lifetime I will witness this important and long overdue reform to become enshrined in the US Constitution!

To heck with too many mediocre life-time career elected representatives in Western democracies! An elected office should be only for a limited time like a court juror or the US President!

Quite possibly, Joseph Biden would never have become President of the 46th US President with term limits!

Quoting from an email I received today from the US Term Limits:

"Here's where our movement stands today:

>>>  More than 80% of Americans support term limits for Congress.  It is the most popular reform idea in America.

>>>  So far twelve states have officially passed our term limits convention legislation.  Many, many more will have the opportunity to vote on it this winter.

Congress cannot stop the states from beginning this process of amending the Constitution. In fact, Congress will be forced to pass a term limits amendment itself rather than allow the states to unilaterally impose one!

>>> 102 members of the U.S. House have now publicly signed on to our term limits amendment in the U.S. House. Nearly one fifth of the senate has done the same.

>>> 220 non-incumbent candidates for Congress in 2026 have signed our pledge to support USTLs term limits amendment.

>>> 1,547 incumbent state legislators have signed our pledge vote for the Term Limits Convention to amend the constitution. 

>>> 599 non-incumbent candidates for state legislatures have signed that pledge to!"

How we will put term limits on Congress

Dimocrat Leader Chuck Schumer sent to hospital after health episode at US Senate gym

Maybe this is poetic justice that one of the highest ranking members of the Dimocratic Party (age 74) and lifelong career politician had such an incident.

I bet Schumer is now almost as senile and demented as the 46th President!

Let's not forget this irresponsible and reckless politician e.g. called for violence to be perpetrated on two US Supreme Court Justices.

He is a very good reason why term limits should also be applied to all the members of the US Congress. He has become so awful with age!

US Senate minority leader Schumer blasts last-minute postponement of classified briefings on Iran. Really!

Schumer (age 74) has become such a phony lifetime career politician (one reason why term limits for all members of the US Congress are urgently needed)!

He is probably now the most senile and demented highest ranking politician in Washington DC since the 46th President.

Remember, he publicly called for violence to be inflicted on two US Supreme Court Justices. This man is so reckless and irresponsible! It stinks to heaven!

US Senator (R-Pa) and US Representative (R-Pa) introduce legislation for Congressional Term Limits of a maximum of 12 years

Good news! Hopefully, this time congressional term limits will finally be implemented!

The noticeable and severe cognitive decline in office by lifelong career politicians like  e.g. Nancy Pelosi, Joseph Biden, and Mitch McCullum would probably have been prevented with term limits!

"Freshman Sen. Dave McCormick, R-Pa., is already taking aim at the Washington establishment by teaming up with Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, a fellow Pennsylvania Republican, to try to enact term limits for members of Congress.

McCormick introduced a joint resolution on the Senate floor on Thursday that would mandate that U.S. senators and representatives can serve a maximum of 12 years in each legislative body. The bill reflects legislation previously introduced by Fitzpatrick in the House. That means senators can only serve two six-year terms in the Senate and representatives can only serve six two-year terms in the House. ..."

Pa. Lawmakers Push Amendment for Congressional Term Limits

Zur Bundestagswahl 2025: Wird eine Regierungskoalition aus AfD und CDU Realität?

Werden die deutschen Wähler den Mut haben endlich den Sumpf in Berlin zu bestrafen und der AfD zur Mehrheit verhelfen?

Wird die CDU sich endlich von der Lusche Merzel und die FDP sich endlich von Lindner trennen! Beides ist seit Jahren überfällig! Es bleibt zu hoffen.

Was die Amerikaner und die Argentinier können, kann auch in Deutschland gelingen! Wieder für etwas mehr gesunden Menschenverstand in der Politik!

Es ist dringendst an der Zeit die Politiker der AfD in Regierungsverantwortung zu nehmen. Wenn die AfD versagen sollte, kann der Wähler das ja bei der nächsten Wahl wieder korrigieren.

Auch die Bananenrepublik D. wäre gut beraten z.B. eine Amtszeitbegrenzung für lebenslange Berufspolitiker endlich auch einzuführen! Gewählte Volksvertreter sollten ihr Amt nur vorübergehend ausführen und dann wieder in das Leben als Bürger zurückkehren. Die fehlende Amtszeitbegrenzung für Berufspolitiker in der Legislative ist eine der grössten Schwächen der westlichen Demokratien. Aus langjähriger Erfahrung wissen wir das der Prozess der Herausforderung von Mandatsinhabern oft und meist nur sehr  unzulänglich funktioniert. Daher sind es immer wieder überwiegend dieselben Politiker die zur Wahl/Wiederwahl anstehen.

Bitter Mitch! Trump Stomps McConnell for Voting Against His Nominees

Recommendable! Trump again does not mince words about the irresponsible and reckless Mitch McConnell, whose mental fitness is in serious questions after four or more falls! Term limits for all members of the US Congress!

US Senator Mitch McConnell (R, TN, age 82) has now voted against two of President Trump's administration nominees

He is as irresponsible and reckless as the former senile, demented and corrupt 46th President. Both did not resign in time for health reasons!

We need term limits for all members of the US Congress not only for the President! Most lifelong career politicians are a scourge of Western democracies!

Elected public representatives should return to private life within 10-20 years of being in office or move on to higher public office!

This is McConnel after his fourth fall! He should be playing with his grandchildren while he still can!

What a reckless and irresponsible U.S. Senator: Mitch McConnell (R, KY, age 82)

He desires to die in office! He has been a U.S. Senator for 40 years.

How senile and demented is he? Given his failing health, he should have resigned some time ago. Today, he fell again in the U.S. Senate.

How much does he suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome?

We need term limits for all members of the US Congress!

Bernie Erupts After RFK Jr. Accuses Him Of Being ‘Single Largest Receiver Of Pharmaceutical Money’

Nice touche! 😊 This 83 year old US Senator is also so senile and demented like the former 46th President. And what a hypocrite and banal, stupid Marxist!

U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders argues with onesies in confirmation hearing

Is this 83 year old man wearing diapers?

Is he as senile and demented as the former 46th President?

We need long overdue term limits for all representatives in the US Congress not only for the president. He has been a US Senator for 19 years, before that he was a US Representative for 16 years.

Had such term limits been in place, most like the pathological lifelong and serial liar and politician Joseph Biden would never have become the president of the US!

Term limits or mandatory retirement age for elected politicians and legislators?

Try term limits first! It probably would solve most negative issues related to lifelong career politicians!

I also think term limits are superior to age limits! E.g. would not prevent an older citizen from becoming an elected representative?

One example: With term limits, most likely the man from Scranton, Pennsylvania (Joseph Biden) would have never become the disaster of the 46th President!

Second example: The term limits imposed on U.S. Presidents since 1951 seemed to have worked quite well so far!

Apparently, in some Western democracies there is too little competition for citizens to become elected representatives and to challenge incumbents. For this and other reasons (political party machines etc.), too many elected politicians manage to hang on as members of parliament for too many years. 

The large caste of lifelong career politicians is a serious issue and a grave defect/flaw of Western democracies. For a citizen to become an elected politician, the office should be a temporary occupation to serve the community before another citizen is elected.

US Senator and majority leader Chuck Schumer (age 73) to release book warning about antisemitism in the United States. Really!

What a hypocrite! One of those too many lifelong career politicians (Schumer since age 25)! Term limits please for all elected representatives!

In recent years, he has become an awful agitator and partisan, who is meanwhile perhaps as senile and demented as the 46th President or worse!

Schumer, who, in a public appearance, called for violence to be unleashed on a U.S. Supreme Court Justice. He is a villain!

"... Israel will be a topic of the book, including a discussion of the line between legitimate criticism of the Israeli government and antisemitism, ... In the March speech, Schumer called for new elections in Israel, saying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had “lost his way.” The speech drew harsh criticism from Israeli government officials and American Jews as inappropriate interference in Israeli politics, in addition to support from leftist Jewish groups and some of Netanyahu’s critics. ..."

This fool is another good reason for term limits or why are the voters in Vermont so stupid!

What a ridiculous campaign! We need foremost term limits for all elected representatives to prevent lifelong career politicians like e.g. Joseph Biden from Scranton, Pennsylvania! (Source)
