The twenty second ammendment states a president can only be president for 2 terms ( 4 years each as a total of 8 ) if a president breaks the 22nd ammendment it means they are trying to run a 3rd term which is not allowed.

The second amendment states that a president can only serve 2 terms. A president cannot break the 22nd amendment because they wouldn't be able to be elected a third time. So to answer your question specifically, If a president is accused of breaking the twenty second amendment that means the president is trying to run for a third term.
