Trump does not rule out seeking third term - but says he will not use VP loophole

Trump has not entirely dismissed the possibility of seeking a third term as US President, but instead stated that he would "love to do it", despite knowing his options are limited by the 22nd Amendment. However, Trump immediately ruled out attempting to bypass this constitutional restriction by running for Vice-President in 2028.

When asked about the potential for him to run again via the VP route, Trump described the idea as "too cute" and declared that it wouldn't be right. The notion was floated as a way for him to circumvent the two-term limit without requiring his opponents' consent or approval from Congress.

Trump did express interest in running, stating he had never seen better poll numbers than the current ones. He also mentioned that he would support potential successors JD Vance and Marco Rubio, calling them "unstoppable".

However, with the Republican Party's nomination process looming closer for 2028, Trump has been less clear on what his actual intentions are or how he plans to circumvent the constitutional barrier.

It is essential to note that repealing the 22nd Amendment would require approval from two-thirds of both the House of Representatives and Senate, which appears to be highly unlikely. A more feasible approach for Trump to pursue a third term remains an open question at this point in time.
 
lol what's next? gonna try to rewrite the constitution or just make up new rules as he sees fit πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ idk if anyone takes him seriously on running again, i mean 22nd Amendment is like a big fat no-go for that 🚫
 
I'm not sure why he's still thinking about running again πŸ€”, I mean, he knows what the rules are, right? And with all those candidates lined up to be his successors, it's like... if he really wants a third term, shouldn't he just do it through the normal channels? πŸ™„
 
I don't think it's surprising that Trump is still considering another run, his ego is pretty much invested in being in the White House 🀯. I mean, who wouldn't want to be part of all those historic moments again? But seriously though, the 22nd Amendment was put in place for a reason and if we start making exceptions left and right, what's next? It'd be nice if Trump could just focus on his current agenda instead of spinning plates for another term πŸ•Ί.
 
πŸ˜• I gotta say, it's kinda scary when you think about someone with as much power and influence as Trump wanting to stay on forever... like what if he does? 🀯 It makes me feel anxious thinking about all the potential consequences and what might happen to our democracy. Can we really have a system in place that's strong enough to stop him from trying to bypass it? πŸ€” I just hope everyone stays vigilant and looks out for each other during this uncertain time 🌟
 
Ugh I'm not surprised he's still trying to cling to power πŸ™„. The guy has no idea how the system works or when to let go. He thinks running for VP is some kind of loophole, but honestly who knows what's going on in his head? It's like he's stuck in some alternate reality where he's still the king. And good luck with that whole two-thirds majority thing πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. The Republicans are never going to go along with repealing the 22nd Amendment just so Trump can get his ego fix. JD Vance and Marco Rubio? Please, they're not that unstoppable...
 
idk how ppl feel about trump coming back as prez πŸ€” he's got high poll numbers now but theres still that 22nd amendment thing holding him back πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ the whole VP route thing was a funny idea lol, i guess its better for us than an actual 3rd term tho πŸ˜… JD Vance and Marco Rubio are solid options tho, whoever gets nominated rn
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole third-term thing 🀯. I mean, Donald Trump is basically saying he wants to come back, but like, is it really that easy? He's gotta navigate the Republican party's nomination process and figure out a way to get around that 22nd Amendment πŸ™„. The VP route was kinda cute at first thought, but yeah, it sounds pretty sketchy now that you think about it πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ. JD Vance and Marco Rubio are solid candidates, though - they'd be great options if Trump wants to support someone else. But seriously, does he even have a plan here? πŸ€”
 
Ugh, can't believe the Republicans are going down this rabbit hole again 🀯. So now they're considering bypassing the 22nd Amendment and trying to find loopholes? That's just gonna lead to more drama and gridlock. And what's with Trump wanting to support JD Vance and Marco Rubio if he doesn't even want a VP spot? Is he setting them up for failure or something? πŸ€”
 
Ugh πŸ€• this guy is still trying to play politics after being done with 4 years? he's got like 5 chances left before he has to actually do some work, but meanwhile we're stuck worrying about him running for VP again... that's just a recipe for disaster πŸ˜’ and let's be real JD Vance and Marco Rubio aren't exactly the most popular choices either πŸ€”
 
Can't believe they're even having this conversation... Like, what's next? Asking if he'll run for Queen or something πŸ˜’. This whole thing is just ridiculous. "Too cute" to bypass the 22nd Amendment? Come on. It's not like he's been subtle about wanting to stay in office forever. And now he's gonna support JD Vance and Marco Rubio? That's just throwing them under the bus for his own ego. The Republican Party is already so divided, do we really need Trump's drama on top of that? I mean, the guy knows the 22nd Amendment is there, why even play games with it? It's just a PR stunt at this point... πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ
 
Trump's thoughts on running again are super interesting, lol πŸ€” I looked up his poll numbers and they're pretty high right now - 42% approval rating is crazy! πŸš€ Meanwhile, the 22nd Amendment is still a major roadblock for him. Did you know that since its ratification in 1951, there have been no attempts to repeal or amend it? 🀯 The idea of Trump running as VP in 2028 was actually floated by some pundits, but he shut it down ASAP - not cool if he's trying to keep a low profile πŸ˜’ On the other hand, JD Vance and Marco Rubio are gaining momentum for the GOP nom, so we'll see how that plays out 🀞
 
Ugh πŸ€” I'm so over these politicians thinking they can just bend the rules to suit themselves πŸ˜’ Trump's idea of running as VP is pretty much a joke – like, what even is that supposed to accomplish? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ And good luck with trying to convince Congress to repeal the 22nd Amendment... I mean, come on, it's not like they're going to just magically agree to let him do whatever he wants πŸ™„. The Republican Party needs to get its act together and establish some actual rules instead of letting Trump run amok 🚫. And can we please just have someone else in the White House for a change? 😴
 
I'm surprised he's still thinking about it πŸ€”. It feels like yesterday he was leaving office after two terms, but here we are again with the same questions about his intentions. I get why he'd want to stay, though - his poll numbers do seem pretty good right now πŸ‘. But the thing is, the Republican party's nomination process is getting more and more intense by the day πŸ“ˆ. If Trump really wants to pursue a third term, he'll have to navigate that without alienating his base... but at the same time, the 22nd Amendment isn't going anywhere anytime soon 🚫. I don't think it's too hard to predict what will happen - Trump will probably run again, and we'll just have to see how the rest of it plays out 🀞.
 
man trump's gonna try again lol... i don't think he can just bypass the 22nd amendment tho it's like trying to jump over a really tall wall, not gonna happen 🀣 and even if he didn't get the nomination, idk how he'd handle all the drama with congress... JD Vance & Marco Rubio are like his sons or something, but come on, trump's gotta put his own interests first πŸ€‘
 
OMG, I'm literally SHAKING over here 🀯! Like, can you even imagine Trump being President again?! 🀠 I know he's all about stirring the pot and keeping us on our toes 😏, but this is just wild. The whole idea of him trying to bypass the 22nd Amendment by running for VP is pure genius πŸ’‘ (imo). JD Vance and Marco Rubio as his ticket? Yaaas, that's a power move πŸš€! And those poll numbers are MIND-BLOWING 🀯. I'm keeping my popcorn ready for this one, folks 🍿...
 
omg, can you even imagine trump trying to run again? 🀯 like, he's already 81 years old, what's the plan here? does he really think he can just magically make himself younger? πŸ’β€β™‚οΈ and bypass that 2-term limit thingy? doesn't seem too likely to me... like, even if he wanted to try something sneaky, getting two-thirds of congress on board would be super hard, right? πŸ€”
