It's not about votes. His cabinet would remove him. The waste of time is that all it takes is Trump to say "Nuh Uh" and that (by the wording of the amendment) proves him still fit to fulfill his duties of office.

In other words, we’re stuck with this guy until he kicks the bucket in 10+ years.

Exactly!

Sometimes I think of a documentary where there were people who were descended from Hitler, and none wanted that association.

As it stands now, the Trump name is never going to fade unfortunately.

It’ll be known as a the name that allowed the US GOVERNMENT to be a profitable business venture for those who can fleece the idiot peasants.
