Originally, the office of President had no term limits but around FDR's time the 22nd amendmet made it so a individual could not be elected t as President beyond his 2nd term which is 8 years in total. Now, if trump were to be selected as someones VP pick, he wouldnt be in violation of the letter of the law because of how the amendmet is specifically worded.
If he could prove they didn’t hand over power peacefully, then he could basically get a free go-around as President. I doubt it he could pull off a case like that.
Technically, he can go for 12 years. There really is no law stopping that.
Edit: My bad, a limit of two terms was ratified by the 22nd amendment in the 1950s.
Constitutional limit is 10 yrs for president, yes?
Does anyone have a clear answer about term limits?
There are none, was just something made up in the 40s, can be taken away

Where are you from?
Apparently yes, possibly more if he can prove power wasn’t given over peacefully but I wouldn’t hold my breath on such.
He is the Senate
I edited my comment.
