According to CNN, President Donald Trump did not rule out a potential third term during a recent interview, despite the 22nd Amendment prohibiting it.

“There are methods which you could do it,” Trump said, adding he was “not joking.” He hinted at plans involving Vice President J.D. Vance or other strategies, though he declined to elaborate.

Trump, who has teased a third term before, now insists the idea is serious. Some allies, like Steve Bannon, argue the amendment doesn’t ban nonconsecutive terms.

Legal experts, however, maintain it’s unconstitutional and unlikely. Trump would be 82 by the end of a second term in 2029.
