Trump claims he could seek a third presidential term in 2028
Donald Trump told a rally in Sioux City, Iowa, that he believes he has the right to seek a third presidential term in 2028, despite acknowledging that the law appears to bar him from running again. He based his claim on his false assertion that he won the 2020 election, and the remarks renewed attention to his repeated suggestions of another run.
Trump said he had “won it three times” and claimed recent polling showed he would beat other candidates. The article notes that the 22nd Amendment bars anyone from being elected president more than twice. Trump was in Iowa to support Republican Senate candidate Ashley Hinson, who was described as locked in a close contest with Democrat Josh Turek; the article also says Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand was ahead in polling.
