Was it a problem when they created the term limit in the first place?

Why would it be any more of a problem to abolish the 22nd amendment rather than create it?

It hasn’t even been a hundred years since its inception. Alaska and Hawaii weren’t even part of the country yet.

It wouldn’t be the president changing it. It would be the process outlined in article V of the constitution.

1. Proposal Stage

There are two ways to propose an amendment:

1. By Congress

• Two-thirds of both the House of Representatives and the Senate must approve the proposed amendment.

• This is the method used for all 27 amendments so far.

2. By a Constitutional Convention

• If two-thirds (currently 34) of state legislatures request it, Congress must call a convention to propose amendments.

• This method has never been used.

2. Ratification Stage

Once proposed, the amendment must be ratified by the states. Congress chooses which method will be used:

1. By State Legislatures

• Three-fourths (currently 38) of the state legislatures must approve the amendment.

2. By State Conventions

• Three-fourths of states must approve it in special ratifying conventions.

• This method has only been used once, for the 21st Amendment (repealing Prohibition).

I don’t even think it’s possible to accomplish this through an executive order if that’s what you’re implying.
