Studied Xi. I am now a communist. Thanks, stranger.

what if you looked at the 4 entire years where he was president and kept the status quo perfectly intact

this user has never read any xi jingping theory nor he knows his political trajectory lol

Damn Trump, I know he’s General Secretary of the Communist Party of America and the role doesn’t have term limits, but he wants to remove term limits on the largely ceremonial office of presidency!

Term limits are great, that’s why we needed to introduce them less than a hundred years ago to stop another FDR

Consider term limits. The US Constitution was amended to enforce term limits in direct response to FDR’s popular 12-year presidency (he died in office, going on for 16). As a policy, it is self-evidently quite anti-democratic (robbing the people of a choice), but nevertheless it has been conceptually naturalized to the extent that the 2019 coup against Evo Morales was premised explicitly on the idea that repeated popular electoral victories constituted a form of dictatorship. If rotation was important to avoid corruption or complacency, corporations and supreme courts would institute term limits too. Term limits ensure that in the miraculous scenario that a scrupulous, charismatic, and intelligent individual becomes a rebellious political executive, they won’t be in power long enough to meaningfully challenge the entrenched power of corporate vehicles manned by CEOs with decades of experience. Wolfgang Schäuble, a powerful advocate of austerity policy in Europe, succinctly summarized the extent to which electoral democracy is subordinate: “Elections cannot be allowed to change economic policy.” One Party States and Democratic Centralism are not the result of lack of sophistication or cronyism, they are a proven bulwark that acknowledges that political power will often need to be exerted against the will of Capital, and so the wielders of said power must necessarily undergo a much more serious vetting process than a popularity contest.

Term limits were a convention until the 50something_th_ amendment in the 1950s, after FDR served more than 2 terms
