Overview

  • In a NewsNation interview, Steve Bannon said there are "many different alternatives" to ensure President Trump appears on the 2028 ballot, with details promised after the 2026 midterms.
  • The 22nd Amendment states that no person may be elected to the presidency more than twice.
  • Florida Representative Randy Fine called for repealing the 22nd Amendment to allow another Trump run.
  • Constitutional experts note repeal would require two-thirds of Congress plus ratification by three-quarters of states and describe floated workarounds, including a stand-in who would resign for Trump to take office, as far-fetched.
  • Observers expect any third-term effort to trigger swift litigation, and Trump has given mixed signals this year about whether he would pursue another bid.
