Trump's Taunts on an Illegal Third Term: A Clear Indication of His Intent
Late-night talk show hosts have been weighing in on Donald Trump's recent comments about running for a third term as president, despite being illegal under the 22nd amendment to the US Constitution. The 22nd Amendment states that "no person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice."
Trump's response to questions about his potential third-term bid has been telling. When asked by reporters if he had a plan for such a campaign, Trump replied: "I would love to do it... I have my best numbers ever." However, when pressed further on whether he had thought about running again, Trump claimed: "I haven't really thought about it." This claim is dubious, as evidenced by the numerous merchandise items bearing his name and logo, including "Trump 2028" hats displayed in the Oval Office.
Jon Stewart, a well-known comedian and former host of The Daily Show, believes that Trump has indeed thought about running again. Stewart noted: "That's the tell for whenever he's asked about something that he is definitely going to do that is dubious legally, ethically or morally." He added: "What's interesting about Trump is he's actually worked through the various scenarios of running for a third term that he has not thought about."
Trump's demolition of part of the East Wing of the White House was seen as another sign of his intentions. Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel joked about this move, saying it was like knocking down a wall in a Brooklyn deli without permission.
Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert have also weighed in on Trump's behavior, with Meyers noting: "It's so weird to make a hat for a thing that can't happen." Meanwhile, Colbert quipped: "I know that sounds nice, I get it, but I don't like the idea of the armed forces having a private sponsor."
The signs are clear – Trump is serious about running for a third term and has already begun working out the logistics. His actions demonstrate a disregard for the Constitution and the democratic process, which should be deeply concerning to all Americans.
As Jon Stewart said: "Trump can't help himself." It's time for the American people to take action and stand up against this attempt to undermine our democracy. The 22nd Amendment is in place for a reason – it's not meant to be ignored or disregarded. We must hold Trump accountable for his actions and ensure that he does not pursue an unconstitutional third term as president.

... He thinks the Constitution is just a suggestion, doesn't he? I mean, come on, 22nd Amendment is pretty clear - two terms max, period. And now he's already planning his next move, like he's got some kinda superpower or something 
. It's not like he's being subtle about it either... all those Trump merch items in the Oval Office? Give me a break 
. The fact that he's knocking down parts of the White House just to make a point is straight-up arrogant 
. And what really gets my goat is when people try to spin this as "just politics" or "just his style"... Newsflash: it's not, dude. This is about undermining democracy and respecting the law. We need to stand up to him before he takes things too far 
. I mean, have you seen those "Trump 2028" hats in the Oval Office? Like, who even buys merchandise like that unless they're planning on running again? And Jimmy Kimmel's joke about knocking down a wall without permission? 
That's just good comedy.
.
It's like, if Trump is serious about running again, it's a huge deal for the country. The 22nd amendment is in place to prevent someone from getting too powerful and abusing their authority. And Trump's actions are already showing that he's not taking this seriously - like, he just claims he hasn't thought about it when we all know he has 
.
. I don't think that's okay, and I don't think it's right that he's trying to ignore the rules just because he wants to do what he wants.
Think Trump's really going to try for a 3rd term? I don't think so... 
. We need to pay attention and take action if he tries something like this – our democracy is what matters most 
! 
. And can you imagine if he actually did win another term? 
. Like, what's the deal with him thinking he can just waltz back in for a third term? Newsflash, buddy: you can't do it 
. The 22nd Amendment is in place for a reason, and it's not up for debate. It's like, we get it, you're still got some juice left, but come on... can't you just let the country move forward without you trying to cling to power? 
.
. And what's up with all these Trump 2028 hats in the Oval Office? It's like he's already planning his next big move 
. Jon Stewart said it best: "That's the tell" when someone's trying to pull off something shady 
. I'm not buying it, and neither should we 
. We gotta stand up for our democracy and make sure Trump doesn't try to pull a fast one on us 
. It's time to hold him accountable and put an end to this nonsense
