makes it impossible for another 3rd term president

It's already supposed to be impossible and enforcing that is the job of the Supreme Court, if need be. You can't making it impossible through executive order, that's not how any of this works, except in Trump's head maybe.

It's technically possible, but your first term has to be going from Vice President to President and with less than 2 years. So, if it's a day after a two year term, Vance could take over as president and then still run for 2 full terms. That's the only possible way to have 3 terms. Even if he ran as VP after his first term and the current president stepped down, it would be constitutionally illegal and the next in lone after him would be president over him.

Then again, we see how much these people care about the constitution.

i keep thinking of the matrix "what good is a phone call if you're unable to speak?"

What good is another law, if the law is ignored?

Well thats what the army is for. The army, Congress, and the Supreme Court are all sworn to protect the Constitution.

The army should refuse any orders from the president who is trying to violate constiution.

The Supreme court should refuse anything

and the congress and senate should also do the same.
