- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump told House Republicans at the annual policy retreat he is `not allowed` to run for a third term during his 90-minute speech.
- During private talks, President Donald Trump raised a constitution-breaking third-term idea with longtime legal adviser Alan Dershowitz, The Wall Street Journal reported; last month, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson responded to reports of these discussions.

- Trump framed it as a `constitutional movement` in his remarks, calling it a larger legal debate while saying it's `pretty clear` he can't seek a third term.
