Donald Trump has reignited speculation about a possible 2028 presidential bid after posting a stark black-and-white image of himself wearing a 'Trump 2028' hat on his social media platform on Saturday evening in the US, despite saying only days earlier that a third term would violate the Constitution. The 80-year-old president shared the image shortly before 4.30pm Eastern time, with a simple caption: 'We are going to win.'
The post landed less than a week after Trump publicly tried to swat away questions about whether he planned to run again once his current term ends. Speaking to reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland on Wednesday, he acknowledged that a third run would break constitutional limits, even as he openly toyed with the idea. The US Constitution restricts presidents to two elected terms. Trump has already served once and is now back in the White House, making a 2028 campaign legally fraught at best and, according to constitutional scholars, straightforwardly prohibited.
