He can't, that's an amendment so he'd need another amendment to get rid of it. Hed need to get 38 state lesiglatures on board and there's only 27 states with republican controlled legislatiures.
Russia's ammendment was passed via popular vote. If we passed amendments the same way I'd be concerned, but our current method makes it highly unlikely.
