ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE: Donald Trump said on Monday that he would not run for vice president in the 2028 American election, a move some supporters suggest would allow him to skirt term limits and stay in the White House.<\/p>\n
The US Constitution limits presidents to two terms, and Trump began his second in January.<\/p>\n
However, some of his advocates have suggested the Republican could skirt the rule by becoming vice president and then stepping back into a vacated top job.<\/p>\n
Asked whether he would run for vice president in November 2028, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that he \u201cwould be allowed to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
But he added: \u201cI wouldn\u2019t do it… I think it\u2019s too cute. It wouldn\u2019t be right.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump, who served his initial term from 2017 to 2021, often mentions that his supporters have called for him to govern beyond his current tenure, despite the constitutional restriction.<\/p>\n
The 79-year-old tycoon has also recently displayed red hats emblazoned with the slogan \u201cTrump 2028\u201d on a desk in the Oval Office.<\/p>\n
A popular theory among his supporters is that the current vice president, JD Vance, could run for president in 2028 on a ticket with Trump.<\/p>\n
If Vance won, the theory goes, he would quickly resign and put Trump back in office.<\/p>\n
Trump\u2019s comments came after Steve Bannon, his former adviser and one of the key ideologues of the Make America Great Again movement, said \u201cthere is a plan\u201d to keep him in the White House.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is going to get a third term… Trump is going to be president in \u201828. And people just ought to get accommodated with that,\u201d Bannon told The Economist.<\/p>\n
Asked about the 22nd Amendment \u2014 the constitutional article mandating term limits \u2014 Bannon said: \u201cThere\u2019s many different alternatives. At the appropriate time, we\u2019ll lay out what the plan is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
