Proposal to change the 22nd Amendment from lifetime term limits to consecutive term limits.

What if we make the national executive term limits law identical to some state executive term limits law?
Donald Trump/Mike Pence-R could face a primary challenge from George W. Bush/Dan Quayle-R and then lose in the general election to Barack Obama/Al Gore-D.
The proposed consecutive term limits law is like what they have in CA. Jerry Brown was elected CA Governor in 1974 and 1978, in 1982 he was unable to run for CA Governor. After 28 years out of office, Brown was again elected CA Governor in 2010 and 2014.
George W Bush and Barack Obama are both former 2 term US Presidents. Dan Quayle and Al Gore are former Vice Presidents, I choosed Dan Quayle-R over Dick Cheney-R and Al Gore-D over Joe Biden-D because Cheney-R and Biden-D are too old to be VP.
I want to see who wins the 2020 Republican Presidential Primary between Trump and Bush43 and I want to see Obama crush either Trump or Bush43 in the November 2020 General Election.
Barack Obama and Al Gore can clean up the mess Donald Trump has made and will make.

Although watching Obama systematically destroy Trump in three consecutive debates would be amazing.

Would Donald Trump support that Proposal? If so then Vladimir Putin would have to help Trump cheat and steal again in 2020, then Trump has to resign from office in 2022 allowing Pence serve as a caretaker until the 2024 election. Trump and Obama face each other in 2024. Donald Trump is a narcissistic individual who enjoys being the leader and overwhelming majority of the Republicans in Congress like Donald Trump.

2/3 approval by House and Senate, and ratification by 3/4 of the states.

In other words, it's not going to happen.
