If a president is in office for one term and then doesn get reelected, can he/she run for office again in the future without his/her first term counting against their total of 2 terms?
The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution says, in part, that “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice”. It does not distinguish between consecutive or non-consecutive terms. So you can be elected twice in a row, or you can win one term and then one other term sometime later in the future. Either way, after two terms you can not be re-elected.
