Rep. Andy Ogles, who represents Tennessee's 5th District in the U.S. Congress, has surfaced on social media with tweets expressing strong support for former President Donald Trump and a proposal to amend presidential term limits. Ogles replaced former Congressman Jim Cooper in 2023 and has been a federal representative since. An alumnus of Middle Tennessee State University and Western Kentucky University, Ogles was born in Nashville and resides in Columbia.
In a tweet from March 28, 2025, Ogles presented "THE CASE FOR TRUMP 2028 https://t.co/9LvvPjFCZa". The thread is part of a broader discussion on Trump's potential candidacy for the presidential election of 2028.
Subsequently, in a tweet posted at the same time, Ogles elaborated "To that end, I have proposed an amendment to the Constitution to revise the limitations imposed by the 22nd Amendment on presidential terms. This Amendment would allow President Trump to seek and serve a third term." This comment indicates Ogles' intent to facilitate a constitutional change aimed at allowing former presidents to serve more than two terms.
In a further tweet, Ogles stated "He has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation’s decay and restoring America to greatness." This statement underscores Ogles’ belief in Trump's capacity to lead the nation and reinforce its standing.
