Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on his way to Japan, President Donald Trump once again refused to rule out the possibility of a third presidential term — despite the 22nd Amendment, which limits presidents to two elected terms.
Hints at 2028 Bid
“I would love to do it,” Trump said when asked about 2028. “I have my best numbers ever.” When pressed, he added, “Am I not ruling it out? You’ll have to tell me.”
Trump acknowledged that the Constitution forbids a third term but dismissed concerns, saying he hasn’t “really thought about” any potential legal fight. He praised the GOP’s “great people” who could lead in the future, naming Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio as “very good” prospects.
Rules Out Vice Presidency
Asked if he’d consider running as vice president in 2028, Trump responded, “Yeah, I’d be allowed to do that… but I think it’s too cute. The people wouldn’t like that. It wouldn’t be right.”
‘Perfect’ MRI at Walter Reed
Trump also addressed questions about his health after a recent visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “If my tests came back bad, I wouldn’t run,” he said. “The doctor said some of the best reports for the age — some of the best they’ve ever seen.”
The president confirmed he underwent “advanced imaging,” including an MRI. “It was perfect,” Trump said, deferring further details to his doctor.
