How can a constitutional amendment be overturned?
Although Donald Trump said this in a light-hearted manner, it gave rise to a new debate there. Actually, an amendment was made in the US Constitution in the year 1951, in which a third term for any President was constitutionally prohibited. Under this, the President can contest elections only twice.
On the other hand, according to Voice of America, this amendment can be reversed, but for this, a change in the Constitution will be needed. For this, a two-thirds majority in both houses of Congress and approval from three-fourths of the states will be necessary.
