Donald Trump said in an interview released on Sunday that he did not think he would run for president again in 2028 if he loses this year’s race for the White House.

In an interview on the Full Measure television show with Sharyl Attkisson, the former US president – who ran in 2016 and 2020 – was asked whether he saw himself running yet again in four years time.

“No, I don’t,” Trump answered. “I don’t see that at all.”

He said: “Hopefully, we’re going to be successful.”

    If he wins it’s two terms and he also won’t run again?

      If he wins he won’t ever let go of power. When you’re president, they (the supreme court) let you do it.

        I suppose it’s possible, with 4 years of unchecked power and the project 2025 guys working for him they might be able to figure it out :/

          There is no supposing. JD Vance is already saying once he is VP he will not certify the election if Trump loses again.

          Don’t forget SCOTUS says he can’t be stopped by anything but impeachment.

      Is there any past comment or behavior that would suggest Trump wouldn’t run for a third term, if given the chance?
