Trump: ‘Pretty clear I’m not allowed to run’ for third term
- Aboard Air Force One on Oct. 29, Trump acknowledged he is 'not allowed' to run for a third term, citing constitutional limits.
- The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution bars presidents from being elected more than twice, and altering it requires two-thirds of Congress and three-fourths of the states in a decade-long amendment process.
- Supporters kept the idea alive by selling and displaying Trump 2028 hats and merchandise, while Steve Bannon told The Economist there is a plan and predicted 'Trump is going to be president in '28'.
- At a Capitol news conference, Mike Johnson said he doesn't 'see the path for that', citing 'There is the 22nd Amendment', and emphasized the constitutional limits discussed with Trump on Tuesday.
- Polls show that Trump’s approval sits at 39 percent in The Economist/YouGov poll and 40 percent in Reuters/Ipsos, while JD Vance leads Republican succession polls at 51 percent.
