Steve Bannon Insists There's Already a Plan in Motion to Get Trump a Third Term: He's Gonna Be President in '28'

"Bannon, a former official advisor to Trump, sat down with The Economist's editor-in-chief Zanny Minton Beddoes and deputy editor Ed Carr in Washington, D.C. this week, and he doubled down on his past suggestions that Trump will remain in the White House in 2028 despite the fact that he'll have served two terms by then. He's going to get a third term. So Trump '28, Trump is going to be president in '28, and people just ought to get accommodated with that, Bannon declared."

"On the one hand, you've said the Constitution is fit for purpose. Secondly, you said that President Trump needs another term, even though the 22nd Amendment makes pretty clear that he cannot have another term, Beddoes fired back at Bannon. Why does it make that clear? Bannon asked. Because he's in his second term already, Beddoes explained. She told Bannon he would be undermining that amendment even if he found a way around it."

"One suggestion was Trump get on a ticket as vice president and then whoever is at the top of the ticket would step down once elected. In the interview with The Economist, Bannon dismissed concerns about the 22nd Amendment, which prohibits anyone from being elected to the office of the presidency more than twice. There's many different alternatives. At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what the plan is. But there's a plan, and President Trump will be the president in '28, Bannon insisted."

Steve Bannon asserted that a plan already exists to make Donald Trump president again in 2028, despite the constitutional two-term limit. He repeated that Trump will get a third term and urged people to accept that outcome. Bannon suggested possible loopholes, including placing Trump on a ticket as vice president with the nominee stepping down after election. He dismissed concerns about the 22nd Amendment and said alternatives exist and a plan will be revealed. He described Trump as an instrument of divine will who needs another term. Zanny Minton Beddoes countered that circumventing the amendment would undermine its intent.
