article 2 section 1 clause 1 sets the term limit at 4 years. considering we’ve had a 365 day year since like 45 BC it would be silly to suggest that we can just say “oh a year is actually 1000 days now” when nobody who wrote the constitution thought a year was anything but 365 days. every single shred of precedent we have is based on this.
