Government jobs are NOT lifetime appointments, though Trump thinks his appointments should be. Incumbents lose elections. We have the smallest government we have ever had right now. How's that working for We the People.

Term limits are constitutional for only the president. So that a foreign agent like Trump could not become a dictator. Term limits for Congress members unconstitutional!

Term limits are silly Russian propoganda. Only states have the right to determine their members in congress. It would take a constitutional amendment to change that.

All good lawmakers. Term limits are elections. Russian trolls pushing federal term limits are anti states rights.

Career politicians have nearly destroyed America. We the people need limited government, term limits, and a flat tax, because more government is never the answer

Senators should be limited to two six-year terms while members of the House should be limited to six two-year terms. Lord Acton said, 'Limitation is essential to authority. A government is legitimate only if it is effectively limited.'

WE DEFINATELY NEED TERM LIMITS IMPOSED IMMEDIATELY ON ALL CONGRESS PEOPLE, SENATORS, GOVERNORS AND ALIKE !!!!! GOVERNMENT JOBS WERE NOT MEANT TO BE LIFE TIME APPOINTMENTS!!!

And that is way too long... Time for term limits so politicians start caring about something other than staying in power!
