  The last U.S. president who served more than two terms was Democrat Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was serving his fourth term when he died in office on April 12, 1945 at the age of 63. That day, Vice President Harry Truman was sworn in as president.

The article from MSN discusses the debunking of a conspiracy theory propagated by MAGA supporters, which claims that former President Donald Trump could be reinstated as president. Legal experts, including former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance and constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe, have dismissed this notion as baseless. They explain that there is no legal or constitutional mechanism for reversing a presidential election after the Electoral College has certified the results and the new president has been inaugurated. The theory, often referred to as the "Trump Reinstatement Fantasy," lacks any foundation in U.S. law or historical precedent. Vance emphasized that the Constitution does not provide for the removal of a sitting president to reinstate a former one, while Tribe highlighted that such an idea is not only legally nonsensical but also undermines the democratic process. The article underscores the importance of understanding legal realities over political fantasies.
