Donald Trump Ineligible for 2028 Presidential Run Due to Term Limits
The 22nd Amendment prohibits serving more than two terms, disqualifying Trump from future candidacy after his recent 2024 victory.
- Donald Trump, having served one term from 2017 to 2021 and winning the 2024 election, cannot seek a third term in 2028.
- The 22nd Amendment limits a president to two terms, whether consecutive or non-consecutive.
- Trump's return to the presidency makes him the first since Grover Cleveland to serve non-consecutive terms.
- Despite previous comments about a third term, constitutional term limits remain unchanged since their ratification in 1951.
- Amending the Constitution to repeal term limits requires significant legislative and state approval, a challenging process historically.
