President Trump said in his first term he had to “run the country and survive”, while now he can “run the country and the world”

Overview

  • Donald Trump has refused to rule out a 2028 presidential run, describing it as a 'big shattering' while acknowledging the constitutional challenges.
  • The Trump Organization has begun selling 'Trump 2028' merchandise, fueling speculation about his intentions despite official denials of a formal plan.
  • In interviews, Trump hinted at possible strategies to circumvent the 22nd Amendment, including a vice-presidential route, though legal experts argue such approaches are likely unconstitutional.
  • Republican Representative Andy Ogles has introduced a resolution to amend the Constitution to permit a third term, a process requiring significant political support unlikely to materialize.
  • The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, strictly limits presidents to two elected terms, with any amendment requiring approval from two-thirds of Congress and three-fourths of state legislatures.
