We’ve played this game twice now. Let’s not try a third game of fascism chicken
That said Obama vs trump would be a funny campaign. “My fellow Americans, look at this absolute buffoon. You want proof I’m a natural born citizen? I’ve been stuck here with him too.”
That was one race, and during a pandemic that probably would have lost the race for any incumbent, whether it made logical sense or not.
Frankly I kind of wish he won his second term if he had to get another term at all. His bruised ego over losing, fear of legal consequences, and time away to stew on this have made him a far more dangerous president than last time.
And while i think he’d struggle in that scenario I’ve gotten very wary of people (myself included) thinking “he can’t possibly win in this scenario” because that’s twice now been the prelude to defeat. Wheras in 2020 he was taken as a serious threat from the start

This amendment’s wording wouldn’t allow Obama or Clinton to run again. Only Trump.
He has never won as the incumbent.

I miss having this level of certainty that he has no chance.
