If Trump refuses to leave office in 2024, all the lefties will screech uselessly on Twitter, same as always. It'll be the gun-toting 2nd Amendment loving deplorables who will be marching on Washington to eject him if he tries.
The idiots who say "you can't oppose the government with an AR-15, just ban it already!" are the same idiots who lack the will or the courage to actually try. If it involves anything more than playing dress-up in a college campus protest, they'd let fascism roll in unopposed.
Doesn't work that way. The 22nd Amendment is pretty cut and dry: "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice". If they impeach during his 2nd term, he's out for good, although he could run for Congress somewhere if he really wanted to troll people into his 80's.
(If you served less than two years while someone else was elected, because you were VP when the President died/resigned, then you could run for 2 more terms. If you served more than 2 years as President for any reason, you can only get elected once after that.)

Let's see...
3rd impeachment going on in last year of Trump's second term.
Republicans vote to remove but not bar from running.
Pence finishes put 2nd term.
Trump runs in 2024 revealing that since he didn't finish a 2nd term, he's not violating the constitution and still gets to try for a full 2nd term.
Trump then runs down the republican side of the Senate high fiving all of them.
