"I'd be allowed to do that, Trump said, in an exchange with reporters aboard Air Force One while traveling from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, the latest leg of a five-day trip to Asia which he hopes to cap with an agreement on a trade war truce with the Chinese president, Xi Jinping. But he added: I wouldn't do that. I think it's too cute. Yeah, I would rule that out because it's too cute."
"Referring to the possibility of a third term, however, Trump said: I would love to do it. I have my best numbers ever. When pressed by a reporter whether he was not ruling out a third term, he said: Am I not ruling it out? I mean you'll have to tell me. He added: All I can tell you is that we have a great group of people, which they [the Democrats] don't."
"No one may be elected to the US presidency a third time, according to the 22nd amendment of the US constitution. Trump says he would be allowed to run for third term as vice-president video Some have suggested that one way around this prohibition would be for Trump to stand as vice-president, while another candidate stood for president but then resigned, letting Trump as the No 2 step up and again assume the presidency."
Trump said he would rule out running for vice-president in 2028, calling the idea 'too cute' and saying people would not like it. He said he would be allowed to run while speaking aboard Air Force One during travel from Kuala Lumpur to Tokyo on a five-day Asia trip aimed at a trade-war truce with Xi Jinping. The 22nd Amendment bars election to a third presidential term. Supporters proposed a workaround of serving as vice-president and then ascending after a resignation, which opponents dispute as likely illegal. He said he would love a third term and claimed he has his best numbers ever, praising JD Vance and Marco Rubio as potential candidates.
