    Can you point to where anyone said we should “abolish term limits to make a forever leader whose opposition is disappeared?” If you can’t, this is what’s called a straw man argument.

      The meme states that they “had to enact term limits” to stop leftists. The leftist in question had the FBI and IRS investigate his opponents.
