With the current nearly 50/50 split in the country of Republicans and Democrats it's extremely unlikely an amendment of this kind would pass - especially one that only aims to allow Trump to serve thrice.
Johnson, the Speaker of the House and a Constitutional lawyer, was asked if there was a legal path to Trump winning and if he would support the president if he ran again.
He said that there 'is a Constitutional path' but that road requires you to 'amend the Constitution to do it.'

However, Johnson said that he has discussed this with Trump in private, and said that he takes him at his word.
